چکیده

A cyclic proof system, called CLKID-omega, gives us another way of representing inductive definitions and effcient proof search. The 2011 paper by Brotherston and Simpson showed that the provability of CLKID-omega includes the provability of Martin-Lof's system of inductive definitions, called LKID, and conjectured the equivalence. Since then, the equivalence has been left an open question. This paper shows that CLKID-omega and LKID are indeed not equivalent. This paper considers a statement called 2-Hydra in these two systems with the first-order language formed by 0, the successor, the natural number predicate, and a binary predicate symbol used to express 2-Hydra. This paper shows that the 2-Hydra statement is provable in CLKID-omega, but the statement is not provable in LKID, by constructing some Henkin model where the statement is false.

Equivalence of Intuitionistic Inductive Definitions and Intuitionistic Cyclic Proofs under Arithmetic

A cyclic proof system gives us another way of representing inductive definitions and efficient proof search. In 2011 Brotherston and Simpson conjectured the equivalence between the provability of the classical cyclic proof system and that of the classical system of Martin-Lof’s inductive definitions. This paper studies the conjecture for intuitionistic logic. This paper first points out that th...

Sequent calculus proof systems for inductive definitions

Inductive definitions are the most natural means by which to represent many families of structures occurring in mathematics and computer science, and their corresponding induction / recursion principles provide the fundamental proof techniques by which to reason about such families. This thesis studies formal proof systems for inductive definitions, as needed, e.g., for inductive proof support ...

Cyclic Proofs for First-Order Logic with Inductive Definitions

We consider a cyclic approach to inductive reasoning in the setting of first-order logic with inductive definitions. We present a proof system for this language in which proofs are represented as finite, locally sound derivation trees with a “repeat function” identifying cyclic proof sections. Soundness is guaranteed by a well-foundedness condition formulated globally in terms of traces over th...

Proof Systems for Inductive Reasoning in the Logic of Bunched Implications

We report on our early progress in developing suitable frameworks for inductive reasoning in separation logic and related logics for low-level program verification, following the approach of our previous work on sequent proof systems for first-order logic with inductive definitions. We extend a first-order predicate version of the logic of bunched implications, BI — of which separation logic is...

Formalised Inductive Reasoning in the Logic of Bunched Implications

We present a framework for inductive definitions in the logic of bunched implications, BI, and formulate two sequent calculus proof systems for inductive reasoning in this framework. The first proof system adopts a traditional approach to inductive proof, extending the usual sequent calculus for predicate BI with explicit induction rules for the inductively defined predicates. The second system...
