  1. Overview
  2. Docs

Standard imlplementation of statements. This module provides a reasonable and standard implementation of statements, that can directly be used to instantiated the various functors of the dolmen library. These statements are closer to smtlib statements than to other languages statements because it is easier to express other languages statements using smtlib's than the other way around. Still, a generalisation of smtlib statements was needed so as not to lose some important distinctions between conjectures and assertions for instance.

Type definitions

type term = Term.t
type location = ParseLocation.t

Type aliases for readability.

type inductive = {
  1. id : Id.t;
  2. vars : term list;
  3. cstrs : (Id.t * term list) list;
  4. loc : location option;
}

The type for inductive type declarations. The "vars" field if used to store polymorphic variables of the inductive type. For instance, a polymorphic type for lists would have a single variable "a". The constructors each have a name and a list of concrete arguments types (they all implicitly take as many type arguments as there are variables). So, for instance, the polymorphic list type would have two constructors:

  • "Nil", []
  • "Cons", [var "a"]

The type of statements. Statements have optional location and attributes (or annotations). Additionally the each have a name (which mainly comes from tptp statements), that can very well be the empty string (and so it is likely not unique).

Implemented interfaces

include Dolmen_intf.Stmt.Logic with type t := t and type id := Id.t and type term := term and type location := location

Optional infos for statements

val annot : ?loc:location -> term -> term list -> term

Constructors for annotations. Annotations are mainly used in TPTP.

Generic statements

val import : ?loc:location -> string -> t

Import directive. Same as include_ but without filtering on the statements to import.

val include_ : ?loc:location -> string -> Id.t list -> t

Inlcude directive. include file l means to include in the current scope the directives from file file that appear in l. If l is the empty list, all directives should be imported.

Dimacs&iCNF Statements

val p_cnf : ?loc:location -> int -> int -> t

Header of dimacs files. First argument is the number of variables, second is the number of clauses.

val clause : ?loc:location -> term list -> t

val assumption : ?loc:location -> term list -> t

Solve the current set of assertions, with the given assumptions.

Smtlib statements

val cnf : ?loc:location -> ?annot:term -> Id.t -> string -> term -> t

TPTP directives. tptp name role t instructs the prover to register a new directive with the given name, role and term. Current tptp roles are:

  • "axiom", "hypothesis", "definition", "lemma", "theorem" acts as new assertions/declartions
  • "assumption", "conjecture" are proposition that need to be proved, and then can be used to prove other propositions. They are equivalent to the following sequence of smtlib statements:

    • push 1
    • assert (not t)
    • check_sat
    • pop 1
    • assert t
  • "negated_conjecture" is the same as "conjecture", but the given proposition is false (i.e its negation is the proposition to prove).
  • "type" declares a new symbol and its type
  • "plain", "unknown", "fi_domain", "fi_functors", "fi_predicates" are valid roles with no specified semantics
  • any other role is an error
