Automating interactive theorem provers and certifying automated theorem provers

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: As software grows increasingly pervasive in our everyday lives, it is important to ensure that the software we rely on, especially in safety-critical systems, behaves as expected. Whereas software testing is a useful approach for detecting the presence of bugs, formal methods offer tools and techniques to prove the absence of bugs. One class of such tools is theorem provers — computer programs capable of proving mathematical theorems. Among other things, theorem provers are used to prove the correctness of software with respect to a specification, in an attempt to prevent buggy software.
