چکیده

We introduce a notion of modular redundancy for theorem proving. It can be used to exploit redundancy elimination techniques (like tautology elimination, subsumption, demodulation or other more reened methods) in combination with arbitrary existing theorem provers, in a refutation complete way, even if these provers are not (or not known to be) complete in combination with the redundancy techniques when applied in the usual sense.

System Description: iProver – An Instantiation-Based Theorem Prover for First-Order Logic

iProver is an instantiation-based theorem prover which is based on Inst-Gen calculus, complete for first-order logic. One of the distinctive features of iProver is a modular combination of instantiation and propositional reasoning. In particular, any state-of-the art SAT solver can be integrated into our framework. iProver incorporates state-of-the-art implementation techniques such as indexing...

Fixed point theorem for non-self mappings and its applications in the modular ‎space

‎In this paper, based on [A. Razani, V. Rako$check{c}$evi$acute{c}$ and Z. Goodarzi, Nonself mappings in modular spaces and common fixed point theorems, Cent. Eur. J. Math. 2 (2010) 357-366.] a fixed point theorem for non-self contraction mapping $T$ in the modular space $X_rho$ is presented. Moreover, we study a new version of Krasnoseleskii's fixed point theorem for $S+T$, where $T$ is a cont...

iProver-Eq: An Instantiation-Based Theorem Prover with Equality

iProver-Eq is an implementation of an instantiation-based calculus Inst-Gen-Eq which is complete for first-order logic with equality. iProver-Eq extends the iProver system with superposition-based equational reasoning and maintains the distinctive features of the Inst-Gen method. In particular, firstorder reasoning is combined with efficient ground satisfiability checking where the latter is de...

Implementing an Instantiation-based Theorem Prover for First-order Logic

The basic idea behind instantiation-based theorem proving is to combine clever generation of instances of clauses with satisfiability checking of ground formulas. There are a number of approaches developed and implemented in recent years: Ordered Semantic Hyper Linking of Plaisted and Zhu, Disconnection Calculus of Letz and Stenz implemented in DCTP, Model Evolution Calculus of Baumgartner and ...

A short introduction to two approaches in formal verification of security protocols: model checking and theorem proving

In this paper, we shortly review two formal approaches in verification of security protocols; model checking and theorem proving. Model checking is based on studying the behavior of protocols via generating all different behaviors of a protocol and checking whether the desired goals are satisfied in all instances or not. We investigate Scyther operational semantics as n example of this...
