A constructive proof of Simpson’s Rule [PDF]
For most purposes, one can replace the use of Rolle's theorem and the mean value theorem, which are not constructively valid, by the law of bounded change. The proof of two basic results in numerical analysis, the error term for Lagrange interpolation and Simpson's rule, however seem to require the full strength of the classical Rolle's Theorem.

Constructive Proof of the Carpenter's Theorem [PDF]
AbstractWe give a constructive proof of the carpenter’s theorem due to Kadison. Unlike the original proof, our approach also yields the real case of this theorem.

Proof Search in Constructive Logics [PDF]
We present an overview of some sequent calculi organised not for "theorem-proving" but for proof search, where the proofs themselves (and the avoidance of known proofs on backtracking) are objects of interest. The main calculus discussed is that of Herbelin [1994] for intuitionistic logic, which extends methods used in hereditary Harrop logic ...

Proofs as Spatio-Temporal Processes
The concept of proof can be studied from many different perspectives. Many types of proofs have been developed throughout history such as apodictic, dialectical, formal, constructive and non-constructive proofs, proofs by visualisation, assumption-based ...

Formalizing Constructive Quantifier Elimination in Agda [PDF]
In this paper a constructive formalization of quantifier elimination is presented, based on a classical formalization by Tobias Nipkow. The formalization is implemented and verified in the programming language/proof assistant Agda.

The aim of our paper is to present the Constructive Type Theory (CTT) and some related concepts for the Swedish logician Per Martin Löf, who constructed a formal logic system in order to establish a philosophical foundation of constructive mathematics ...

Infinite Towers of Galois Defect Extensions of Kaplansky Fields
We give conditions for Kaplansky fields to admit infinite towers of Galois defect extensions of prime degree. As proofs of the presented facts are constructive, this provides examples of constructions of infinite towers of Galois defect extensions of ...

Strong Normalization for HA + EM1 by Non-Deterministic Choice [PDF]
We study the strong normalization of a new Curry-Howard correspondence for HA + EM1, constructive Heyting Arithmetic with the excluded middle on Sigma01-formulas.

Hölder, Mach, and the Law of the Lever: A Case of Well-founded Non-controversy
Otto Hölder’s reply to Mach’s renowned critique of the Archimedean proof of the Law of the Lever is analyzed and contextutalized as part of Hölder’s epistemological theory.

Hereditary Substitution for the λΔ-Calculus [PDF]
Hereditary substitution is a form of type-bounded iterated substitution, first made explicit by Watkins et al. and Adams in order to show normalization of proof terms for various constructive logics.
