چکیده
We investigate several methods of inductive reasoning in the domain of difference equations, including the method of generalization with beliefs, the method of successive refinement, and temporal methods based on comparisons with previously solved problems.

Towards a Teaching Approach for Improving Mathematics Inductive Reasoning Problem Solving
The study aimed at proposing and assessing a training program that integrates both inductive reasoning problem solving and the development of mathematical concepts. This approach was developed on the basis of a general theory of inductive reasoning, which delineates six related classes of problems and the corresponding solution processes and it was implemented to sixth grade students. Data were...
متن کاملAn Enquiry Concerning Human (and Computer!) [Mathematical] Understanding
Science and mathematics seem to be huge success stories. Hence it is not surprising that most scientists and mathematicians think that science and mathematics are the most secure ways of acquiring knowledge, and that all knowledge could, at least in principle, be derived using either the scientific method, using inductive reasoning, and in the case of mathematical knowledge, using deductive rea...
متن کاملAutomated Discovery of Inductive Theorems⋆
Inductive mathematical theorems have, as a rule, historically been quite difficult to prove – both for mathematics students and for automated theorem provers. That said, there has been considerable progress over the past several years, within the automated reasoning community, towards proving some of these theorems. However, little work has been done thus far towards automatically discovering t...
متن کاملA Generalization of Muirhead’s Inequality
We give a proof of a generalization of Muirhead’s Inequality and informally explain its application in establishing an instantial relevance principle in Polyadic Inductive Logic. Mathematics subject classification (2000): 26D15.

ETH Workshop on Software Correctness and Reliability, Zürich, October 2–3, 2015 © P. Cousot Software correctness proofs • Any formal proof of a non-trivial program requires a reasoning by mathematical induction (e.g., following Turing, on the number of program execution steps): • Invent an inductive argument (e.g. invariant, variant function), the hardest part • Prove the base case and inductiv...
