Description
Interactive provers typically use higher-order logic, while automatic provers typically use first-order logic. To integrate interactive provers with automatic ones, one must translate higher-order formulas to first-order form. The translation should ideally be both sound and practical. We have investigated several methods of translating function applications, types, and λ-abstractions. Omitting some type information improves the success rate but can be unsound, so the interactive prover must...[Show more]
