PLATΩ: A Mediator between Text-Editors and Proof Assistance Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a generic mediator, called PlatΩ, between text-editors and proof assistants. PlatΩ aims at integrated support for the development, publication, formalization, and verification of mathematical documents in a natural way as possible: The user authors his mathematical documents with a scientific WYSIWYG text-editor in the informal language he is used to, that is a mixture of natural language and formulas. These documents are then semantically annotated preserving the textual structure by using the flexible, parameterized proof language which we present. From this informal semantic representation PlatΩ automatically generates the corresponding formal representation for a proof assistant, in our case Ωmega. The primary task of PlatΩ is the maintenance of consistent formal and informal representations during the interactive development of the document.

Towards Merging Plat and PGIP
The PGIP protocol is a standard, abstract interface protocol to connect theorem provers with user interfaces. Interaction in PGIP is based on ASCII-text input and a single focus point-ofcontrol, which indicates a linear position in the input that has been checked thus far. This fits many interactive theorem provers whose interaction model stems from command-line interpreters. PlatΩ, on the othe...

The interactive use of mathematical assistance systems requires an intensive training in their input and command language. With the integration into scientific WYSIWYG text-editors the author can directly use the natural language and formula notation she is used to. In the new documentcentric paradigm changes to the document are transformed by a mediator into commands for the mathematical assis...

A major problem for the acceptance of mathematical proof assistance systems in mathematical practise is the shortcomings of their user interfaces. Often the interfaces are developed bottom-up starting from the mathematical proof assistance system. Therefore they usually focus on the individual system and its proof development paradigm and neglect traditional forms to communicate proofs as used ...

Unlike computer algebra systems, automated theorem provers have not yet achieved considerable recognition and relevance in mathematical practice. A significant shortcoming of mathematical proof assistance systems is that they require the fully formal representation of mathematical content, whereas in mathematical practice an informal, natural-language-like representation where obvious parts are...
