Nominal Techniques in Isabelle/HOL
Abstract This paper describes a formalisation of the lambda-calculus in a HOL-based theorem prover using nominal techniques. Central to the formalisation is an inductive set that i...

The Conservation Theorem revisited
This paper describes a method of proving strong normalization based on an extension of the conservation theorem. We introduce a structural notion of reduction that we call βS, and...

Programming a Symbolic Model Checker in a Fully Expansive Theorem Prover
Abstract. Model checking and theorem proving are two complementary approaches to formal verification. In this paper we show how binary decision diagram (BDD) based symbolic model ...

Pattern minimization problems over recursive data types
In the context of program verification in an interactive theorem prover, we study the problem of transforming function definitions with ML-style (possibly overlapping) pattern mat...
