A Foundational View on Integration Problems

The integration of reasoning and computation services across system and language boundaries is a challenging problem of computer science. In this paper, we use integration for the scenario where we have two systems that we integrate by moving problems and solutions between them. While this scenario is often approached from an engineering perspective, we take a foundational view. Based on the generic declarative language MMT, we develop a theoretical framework for system integration using theories and partial theory morphisms. Because MMT permits representations of the meta-logical foundations themselves, this includes integration across logics. We discuss safe and unsafe integration schemes and devise a general form of safe integration

The many-valued theorem prover 3TAP. 3rd. edition

This is the 3TAP handbook. 3TAP is a many-valued tableau-based theorem prover developed at the University of Karlsruhe. The handbook serves a triple purpose: first, it documents the history and development of the prover 3TAP; second, it provides a user\u27s manual, and third it is intended as a reference manual for future developers, including porting hints. This version of the handbook describes 3TAP Version 3.0 as of September 30,1994

Dedukti: a Logical Framework based on the λ\lambdaΠ\Pi-Calculus Modulo Theory

Dedukti is a Logical Framework based on the $\lambda$$\Pi$-Calculus Modulo Theory. We show that many theories can be expressed in Dedukti: constructive and classical predicate logic, Simple type theory, programming languages, Pure type systems, the Calculus of inductive constructions with universes, etc. and that permits to used it to check large libraries of proofs developed in other proof systems: Zenon, iProver, FoCaLiZe, HOL Light, and Matita
