Itauto: An Extensible Intuitionistic SAT Solver

We present the design and implementation of itauto, a Coq reflexive tactic for intuitionistic propositional logic. The tactic inherits features found in modern SAT solvers: definitional conjunctive normal form; lazy unit propagation and conflict driven backjumping. Formulae are hash-consed using native integers thus enabling a fast equality test and a pervasive use of Patricia Trees. We also propose a hybrid proof by reflection scheme whereby the extracted solver calls user-defined tactics on the leaves of the propositional proof search thus enabling theory reasoning and the generation of conflict clauses. The solver has decent efficiency and is more scalable than existing tactics on synthetic benchmarks and preliminary experiments are encouraging for existing developments

Proof-theoretic Semantics for Intuitionistic Multiplicative Linear Logic

This work is the first exploration of proof-theoretic semantics for a substructural logic. It focuses on the base-extension semantics (B-eS) for intuitionistic multiplicative linear logic (IMLL). The starting point is a review of Sandqvist’s B-eS for intuitionistic propositional logic (IPL), for which we propose an alternative treatment of conjunction that takes the form of the generalized elimination rule for the connective. The resulting semantics is shown to be sound and complete. This motivates our main contribution, a B-eS for IMLL , in which the definitions of the logical constants all take the form of their elimination rule and for which soundness and completeness are established

Automated Deduction – CADE 28

This open access book constitutes the proceeding of the 28th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE 28, held virtually in July 2021. The 29 full papers and 7 system descriptions presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. CADE is the major forum for the presentation of research in all aspects of automated deduction, including foundations, applications, implementations, and practical experience. The papers are organized in the following topics: Logical foundations; theory and principles; implementation and application; ATP and AI; and system descriptions

SAT modulo intuitionistic implications

We present a new method for solving problems in intuitionistic propositional logic, which involves the use of an incremental SAT-solver. The method scales to very large problems, and fits well into an SMT-based framework for interaction with other theories
