  2. Automated theorem proving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_theorem_proving

    Automated theorem proving (also known as ATP or automated deduction) is a subfield of automated reasoning and mathematical logic dealing with proving mathematical theorems by computer programs. Automated reasoning over mathematical proof was a major motivating factor for the development of computer science .

  3. Proof assistant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_assistant

    In computer science and mathematical logic, a proof assistant or interactive theorem prover is a software tool to assist with the development of formal proofs by human–machine collaboration. This involves some sort of interactive proof editor, or other interface , with which a human can guide the search for proofs, the details of which are ...

  4. Otter (theorem prover) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otter_(theorem_prover)

    OTTER (Organized Techniques for Theorem-proving and Effective Research [1]) is an automated theorem prover developed by William McCune at Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois. Otter was the first widely distributed, high-performance theorem prover for first-order logic, and it pioneered a number of important implementation techniques.

  5. Thousands of Problems for Theorem Provers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousands_of_Problems_for...

    TPTP (Thousands of Problems for Theorem Provers) [1] is a freely available collection of problems for automated theorem proving. It is used to evaluate the efficacy of automated reasoning algorithms. [2] [3] [4] Problems are expressed in a simple text-based format for first order logic or higher-order logic. [5]

  6. Automated reasoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_reasoning

    Automated reasoning has been most commonly used to build automated theorem provers. Oftentimes, however, theorem provers require some human guidance to be effective and so more generally qualify as proof assistants. In some cases such provers have come up with new approaches to proving a theorem. Logic Theorist is a good example of this.

  7. Nuprl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NuPRL

    Nuprl was first released in 1984, and was first described in detail in the book Implementing Mathematics with the Nuprl Proof Development System, [3] published in 1986. Nuprl 2 was the first Unix version. Nuprl 3 provided machine proof for mathematical problems related to Girard's paradox and Higman's lemma.

  8. System on TPTP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_on_TPTP

    System on TPTP is an online interface to several automated theorem proving systems and other automated reasoning tools. It allows users to run the systems either on problems from the latest releases from the TPTP problem library or on user-supplied problems in the TPTP syntax. The system is maintained by Geoff Sutcliffe at the University of Miami
