Abstract:

This paper describes the proof planning system P # for the meta theorem prover implemented in Twelf. The main contributions include a formal system that approximates the flow of information between universal and existential quantified assumptions within a meta proof, a set of inference rules to reason about those approximations, and a soundness proof that guarantees that the proof planner does not reject promising proof states. 1
