Superposition for Full Higher-order Logic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
AbstractWe recently designed two calculi as stepping stones towards superposition for full higher-order logic: Boolean-free$$\lambda $$λ-superposition and superposition for first-order logic with interpreted Booleans. Stepping on these stones, we finally reach a sound and refutationally complete calculus for higher-order logic with polymorphism ...

Optimization of Executable Formal Interpreters Developed in Higher-Order Logic Theorem Proving Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
In recent publications, we presented a novel formal symbolic process virtual machine (FSPVM) framework that combined higher-order logic theorem proving and symbolic execution for verifying the reliability and security of smart contracts developed in the ...

Synthesis of a comprehensive population code for contextual features in the awake sensory cortex

open access: yeseLife, 2021
How cortical circuits build representations of complex objects is poorly understood. Individual neurons must integrate broadly over space, yet simultaneously obtain sharp tuning to specific global stimulus features.

Set Theory or Higher Order Logic to Represent Auction Concepts in Isabelle? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
When faced with the question of how to represent properties in a formal proof system any user has to make design decisions. We have proved three of the theorems from Maskin's 2004 survey article on Auction Theory using the Isabelle/HOL system, and we ...

Formalization of Linear Space Theory in the Higher-Order Logic Proving System

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
Theorem proving is an important approach in formal verification. Higher-order logic is a form of predicate logic that is distinguished from first-order logic by additional quantifiers and stronger semantics. Higher-order logic is more expressive.

DNA for nano-bio scale computation of chemical formalisms using Higher Order Logic (HOL) and analysis using an interdisciplinary approach [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2014
Bio-molecular computing, 'computations performed by bio-molecules', is already challenging traditional approaches to computation both theoretically and technologically.

Higher-Order Illative Combinatory Logic [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Symbolic Logic, 2013
AbstractWe show a model construction for a system of higher-order illative combinatory logic thus establishing its strong consistency. We also use a variant of this construction to provide a complete embedding of first-order intuitionistic predicate logic with second-order propositional quantifiers into the system of Barendregt, Bunder and Dekkers ...

Formalization of Complex Vectors in Higher-Order Logic

open access: yes, 2014
Complex vector analysis is widely used to analyze continuous systems in many disciplines, including physics and engineering. In this paper, we present a higher-order-logic formalization of the complex vector space to facilitate conducting this analysis ...

Metalogic and the Overgeneration Argument [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A prominent objection against the logicality of second-order logic is the so-called Overgeneration Argument. However, it is far from clear how this argument is to be understood.
