Revision proofness

Journal of Economic Theory, 2014
We analyze an equilibrium concept called revision-proofness for infinite-horizon games played by a dynasty of players. Revision-proofness requires strategies to be robust to joint deviations by multiple players and is a refinement of sub-game perfection. Sub-game perfect paths that can only be sustained by reversion to paths with payoffs below those of

Adapting proof automation to adapt proofs

Proceedings of the 7th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Certified Programs and Proofs - CPP 2018, 2018
We extend proof automation in an interactive theorem prover to analyze changes in specifications and proofs. Our approach leverages the history of changes to specifications and proofs to search for a patch that can be applied to other specifications and proofs that need to change in analogous ways.

Proofs of membership vs. proofs of knowledge

Proceedings. Thirteenth Annual IEEE Conference on Computational Complexity (Formerly: Structure in Complexity Theory Conference) (Cat. No.98CB36247), 2002
We investigate the relationship between interactive proofs of membership and interactive proofs of knowledge. Previous results in this area show that many proofs of membership for some languages are also proofs of knowledge of an associated relation, raising the question of whether all proofs of membership are proofs of knowledge.

Proofs and Proof Sketches

1998
To prove that the top-down algorithm in Figure 3.27 terminates, we argue that there is only a finite number of revisables and subsequently only a finite number of possible nodes. With a node being marked in each step of loop (2) the algorithm terminates. The second part of the theorem that H(n) is a hitting-set iff n is a leaf marked ✓ is true since we

When is a Proof Not a Proof.

The Mathematics Teacher, 1926
We have all heard of pupils who “got by” in geometry by merely memorizing the proofs given in the book and of teachers who permitted them to “get by.” To such persons those proofs were not proofs. Assuming that such methods are passe if they have not passed all together, what limits are we to approach in the other direction?

Validation of HOL Proofs by Proof Checking

Formal Methods in System Design, 1999
Formal proofs generated by mechanised theorem proving systems may consist of a large number of inferences. As these theorem proving systems are usually very complex, it is extremely difficult if not impossible to formally verify them. This calls for an independent means of ensuring the consistency of mechanically generated proofs.

Combinatorial proofs and algebraic proofs — II

Resonance, 2013
In Part I of this article we considered some binomial identities and also some identities involving the Fibonacci numbers, and proved them using methods which we described as ‘largely’ combinatorial. Now we shift our focus to number theory and to prime numbers in particular, and showcase some proofs having a strong combinatorial element.

Arguments and Proofs About Arguments and Proofs

2009
Both rhetoric and mathematics are ancient, elaborate and still active fields of study that cover a time span of more than two millennia. That much, they undisputedly have in common. However, in the domain of mathematics one will search in vain for traces, positive or negative, of rhetoric, and in the domain of rhetoric, although the relation between ...
