A FORMAL PROOF OF THE KEPLER CONJECTURE [PDF]

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Pi, 2017
This article describes a formal proof of the Kepler conjecture on dense sphere packings in a combination of the HOL Light and Isabelle proof assistants. This paper constitutes the official published account of the now completed Flyspeck project.

A Formal Proof of the Irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2021
This paper presents a complete formal verification of a proof that the evaluation of the Riemann zeta function at 3 is irrational, using the Coq proof assistant.

Towards Formal Proof Metrics [PDF]

open access: yesLecture Notes in Computer Science, 2016
Recent years have seen increasing success in building large formal proof developments using interactive theorem provers ITPs. Some proofs have involved many authors, years of effort, and resulted in large, complex interdependent sets of proof "source code" files.

Mining the Archive of Formal Proofs [PDF]

open access: yesLecture Notes in Computer Science, 2015
The Archive of Formal Proofs is a vast collection of computer-checked proofs developed using the proof assistant Isabelle. We perform an in-depth analysis of the archive, looking at various properties of the proof developments, including size, dependencies, and proof style. This gives some insights into the nature of formal proofs.

Formal Proof of a Program: Find

open access: yesScience of Computer Programming, 2007
AbstractIn 1971, C.A.R. Hoare gave the proof of correctness and termination of a rather complex algorithm, in a paper entitled Proof of a program: Find. It is a handmade proof, where the program is given together with its formal specification and where each step is fully justified by mathematical reasoning.

Swarms of Mobile Robots: Towards Versatility with Safety [PDF]

open access: yesLeibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, 2022
We present Pactole, a formal framework to design and prove the correctness of protocols (or the impossibility of their existence) that target mobile robotic swarms.

Is Mathematical Logic Really Necessary in Teaching Mathematical Proofs? [PDF]

open access: yesAthens Journal of Education, 2020
As it is already observed by mathematicians and educators, there is a discrepancy between the formal techniques of mathematical logic and the informal techniques of mathematics in regards to proof.

The Faithfulness Problem

open access: yesPrincipia: An International Journal of Epistemology, 2022
When adopting a sound logical system, reasonings made within this system are correct. The situation with reasonings expressed, at least in part, with natural language is much more ambiguous. One way to be certain of the correctness of these reasonings is

Logic for exact real arithmetic [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2021
Continuing earlier work of the first author with U. Berger, K. Miyamoto and H. Tsuiki, it is shown how a division algorithm for real numbers given as a stream of signed digits can be extracted from an appropriate formal proof.
