Translating Proofs from an Impredicative Type System to a Predicative One

Authors: Thiago Felicissimo, Frédéric Blanqui, and Ashish Kumar Barnawal

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 252, 31st EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2023)


Abstract
As the development of formal proofs is a time-consuming task, it is important to devise ways of sharing the already written proofs to prevent wasting time redoing them. One of the challenges in this domain is to translate proofs written in proof assistants based on impredicative logics, such as Coq, Matita and the HOL family, to proof assistants based on predicative logics like Agda, whenever impredicativity is not used in an essential way. In this paper we present an algorithm to do such a translation between a core impredicative type system and a core predicative one allowing prenex universe polymorphism like in Agda. It consists in trying to turn a potentially impredicative term into a universe polymorphic term as general as possible. The use of universe polymorphism is justified by the fact that mapping an impredicative universe to a fixed predicative one is not sufficient in most cases. During the algorithm, we need to solve unification problems modulo the max-successor algebra on universe levels. But, in this algebra, there are solvable problems having no most general solution. We however provide an incomplete algorithm whose solutions, when it succeeds, are most general ones. The proposed translation is of course partial, but in practice allows one to translate many proofs that do not use impredicativity in an essential way. Indeed, it was implemented in the tool Predicativize and then used to translate semi-automatically many non-trivial developments from Matita’s arithmetic library to Agda, including Bertrand’s Postulate and Fermat’s Little Theorem, which were not available in Agda yet.

Encoding Type Universes Without Using Matching Modulo Associativity and Commutativity

Authors: Frédéric Blanqui

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 228, 7th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2022)


Abstract
The encoding of proof systems and type theories in logical frameworks is key to allow the translation of proofs from one system to the other. The λΠ-calculus modulo rewriting is a powerful logical framework in which various systems have already been encoded, including type systems with an infinite hierarchy of type universes equipped with a unary successor operator and a binary max operator: Matita, Coq, Agda and Lean. However, to decide the word problem in this max-successor algebra, all the encodings proposed so far use rewriting with matching modulo associativity and commutativity (AC), which is of high complexity and difficult to integrate in usual algorithms for b-reduction and type-checking. In this paper, we show that we do not need matching modulo AC by enforcing terms to be in some special canonical form wrt associativity and commutativity, and by using rewriting rules taking advantage of this canonical form. This work has been implemented in the proof assistant Lambdapi.

Adequate and Computational Encodings in the Logical Framework Dedukti

Authors: Thiago Felicissimo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 228, 7th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2022)


Abstract
Dedukti is a very expressive logical framework which unlike most frameworks, such as the Edinburgh Logical Framework (LF), allows for the representation of computation alongside deduction. However, unlike LF encodings, Dedukti encodings proposed until now do not feature an adequacy theorem - i.e., a bijection between terms in the encoded system and in its encoding. Moreover, many of them also do not have a conservativity result, which compromises the ability of Dedukti to check proofs written in such encodings. We propose a different approach for Dedukti encodings which do not only allow for simpler conservativity proofs, but which also restore the adequacy of encodings. More precisely, we propose in this work adequate (and thus conservative) encodings for Functional Pure Type Systems. However, in contrast with LF encodings, ours is computational - that is, represents computation directly as computation. Therefore, our work is the first to present and prove correct an approach allowing for encodings that are both adequate and computational in Dedukti.

Some Axioms for Mathematics

Authors: Frédéric Blanqui, Gilles Dowek, Émilie Grienenberger, Gabriel Hondet, and François Thiré

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 195, 6th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2021)


Abstract
The λΠ-calculus modulo theory is a logical framework in which many logical systems can be expressed as theories. We present such a theory, the theory {U}, where proofs of several logical systems can be expressed. Moreover, we identify a sub-theory of {U} corresponding to each of these systems, and prove that, when a proof in {U} uses only symbols of a sub-theory, then it is a proof in that sub-theory.
