A method for finding new sets of axioms for classes of semigroups
We introduce a general technique for finding sets of axioms for a given class of semigroups. To illustrate the technique, we provide new sets of defining axioms for groups of exponent n, bands, and semilattices
Computer theorem proving in math
We give an overview of issues surrounding computer-verified theorem proving
in the standard pure-mathematical context. This is based on my talk at the PQR
conference (Brussels, June 2003)
Larry Wos - Visions of automated reasoning
This paper celebrates the scientific discoveries and the service to the automated reasoning community of Lawrence (Larry) T. Wos, who passed away in August 2020. The narrative covers Larry's most long-lasting ideas about inference rules and search strategies for theorem proving, his work on applications of theorem proving, and a collection of personal memories and anecdotes that let readers appreciate Larry's personality and enthusiasm for automated reasoning
