Abstract:

An automated tableau prover for the Partial Predicate Calculus(PPC) has been implemented and integrated in Isabelle. It is based on the LK object-logic but is extended to the three-valued logic of PPC. It provides three tactics: the tablo tac which offers the opportunity to trace every step in the proof-process, the safe tac based on depth-first search and the best tac based on best-first search. A closed tableau is indicated by the fact that there are no more subgoals to prove, otherwise the subgoals define a counterexample for the expression. 1
