چکیده

We describe a sequent calculus, based on work of Herbelin, of which the cut-free derivations are in 1-1 correspondence with the normal natural deduction proofs of intuitionistic logic. We present a simple proof of Herbelin’s strong cutelimination theorem for the calculus, using the recursive path ordering theorem of Dershowitz.

A permutation-free sequent calculus for intuitionistic logic

We describe a sequent calculus MJ, based on work of Herbelin, of which the cutfree derivations are in 1-1 correspondence with the normal natural deduction proofs of intuitionistic logic. MJ (without cut) has the sub-formula property and is therefore convenient for automated proof search; it admits no permutations and therefore avoids some of the backtracking problems in LJ. We present a simple ...

Confluence of Cut-Elimination Procedures for the Intuitionistic Sequent Calculus

We prove confluence of two cut-elimination procedures for the implicational fragment of a standard intuitionistic sequent calculus. One of the cut-elimination procedures uses global proof transformations while the other consists of local ones. Both of them include permutation of cuts to simulate β-reduction in an isomorphic image of the λ-calculus. We establish the confluence properties through...

Elementary Elimination of Prenex Cuts in Disjunction-free Intuitionistic Logic

The size of shortest cut-free proofs of first-order formulas in intuitionistic sequent calculus is known to be non-elementary in the worst case in terms of the size of given sequent proofs with cuts of the same formulas. In contrast to that fact, we provide an elementary bound for the size of cut-free proofs for disjunction-free intuitionistic logic for the case where the cut-formulas of the or...

Annotation-Free Sequent Calculi for Full Intuitionistic Linear Logic - Extended Version

Full Intuitionistic Linear Logic (FILL) is multiplicative intuitionistic linear logic extended with par. Its proof theory has been notoriously difficult to get right, and existing sequent calculi all involve inference rules with complex annotations to guarantee soundness and cut-elimination. We give a simple and annotation-free display calculus for FILL which satisfies Belnap’s generic cut-elim...

Forcing-Based Cut-Elimination for Gentzen-Style Intuitionistic Sequent Calculus

We give a simple intuitionistic completeness proof of Kripke semantics with constant domain for intuitionistic logic with implication and universal quantification. We use a cut-free intuitionistic sequent calculus as formal system and by combining soundness with completeness, we obtain an executable cut-elimination procedure. The proof, which has been formalised in the Coq proof assistant, easi...
