Saturation Up to Redundancy for Tableau and Sequent Calculi

چکیده

We discuss an adaptation of the technique of saturation up to redundancy, as introduced by Bachmair and Ganzinger [1], to tableau and sequent calculi for classical first-order logic. This technique can be used to easily show the completeness of optimized calculi that contain destructive rules e.g. for simplification, rewriting with equalities, etc., which is not easily done with a standard Hintikka-style completeness proof. The notions are first introduced for Smullyan-style ground tableaux, and then extended to constrained formula free-variable tableaux.

Redundancy for rigid clausal tableaux

Redundancy is a substantial concept when avoiding endless computation in theorem proving methods. In this paper, we are targeting a special class of tableau calculi, namely rigid clausal tableaux. These tableaux are (1) clausal in the sense that they consist solely of literals, and are (2) rigid in the sense that they employ rigid variables. Such calculi are e.g. rigid hyper tableaux [7] and mu...

In this paper we compare two proof systems for minimal entailment: a tableau system OTAB and a sequent calculus MLK , both developed by Olivetti (1992). Our main result shows that OTAB-proofs can be efficiently translated into MLK -proofs, i.e.,MLK psimulates OTAB . The simulation is technically very involved and answers an open question posed by Olivetti (1992) on the relation between the two ...

How to Synthesize a Tableau

We synthesize a refutationally complete tableau calculus for propositional logic by a new method, using ordered resolution as a procedural framework at the meta level. Algebraically, the calculus solves the word problem for free distributive lattices. Goal-directedness of the construction is enforced by a ne-tuned well-founded ordering on terms, atoms and clauses. The synthesis is performed in ...
