Towards a Verified Tableau Prover for a Quantifier-Free Fragment of Set Theory (2209.14133v2)
Published 28 Sep 2022 in cs.LO
Abstract: Using Isabelle/HOL, we verify the state-of-the-art decision procedure for multi-level syllogistic with singleton (MLSS for short), which is a quantifier-free fragment of set theory. We formalise its syntax and semantics as well as a sound and complete tableau calculus for it. We also provide an executable specification of a decision procedure that exhaustively applies the rules of the calculus and prove its termination. Furthermore, we extend the calculus with a lightweight type system that paves the way for an integration of the procedure into Isabelle/HOL.
