  Isabelle/Isar theories are defined via theory files, which may

  contain both specifications and proofs; occasionally definitional

  mechanisms also require some explicit proof.  The theory body may be

  sub-structured by means of \emph{local theory targets}, such as

  \hyperlink{command.locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{locale}}}} and \hyperlink{command.class}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{class}}}}.

  The first proper command of a theory is \hyperlink{command.theory}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{theory}}}}, which

  indicates imports of previous theories and optional dependencies on

  other source files (usually in ML).  Just preceding the initial

  \hyperlink{command.theory}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{theory}}}} command there may be an optional \hyperlink{command.header}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{header}}}} declaration, which is only relevant to document

  preparation: see also the other section markup commands in

  \secref{sec:markup}.

  A theory is concluded by a final \hyperlink{command.global.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} command,

  one that does not belong to a local theory target.  No further

  commands may follow such a global \hyperlink{command.global.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}},

  although some user-interfaces might pretend that trailing input is

  admissible.

  starts a new theory \isa{A} based on the merge of existing

  theories \isa{{\isachardoublequote}B\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ B\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}.

  Due to the possibility to import more than one ancestor, the

  resulting theory structure of an Isabelle session forms a directed

  acyclic graph (DAG).  Isabelle's theory loader ensures that the

  sources contributing to the development graph are always up-to-date:

  changed files are automatically reloaded whenever a theory header

  specification is processed.

  The optional \indexdef{}{keyword}{uses}\hypertarget{keyword.uses}{\hyperlink{keyword.uses}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{uses}}}}} specification declares additional

  dependencies on extra files (usually ML sources).  Files will be

  loaded immediately (as ML), unless the name is parenthesized.  The

  latter case records a dependency that needs to be resolved later in

  the text, usually via explicit \indexref{}{command}{use}\hyperlink{command.use}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{use}}}} for ML files;

  other file formats require specific load commands defined by the

  corresponding tools or packages.

  \item \hyperlink{command.global.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} concludes the current theory

  definition.  Note that local theory targets involve a local

  \hyperlink{command.local.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}}, which is clear from the nesting.

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

A local theory target is a context managed separately within the

  enclosing theory.  Contexts may introduce parameters (fixed

  variables) and assumptions (hypotheses).  Definitions and theorems

  depending on the context may be added incrementally later on.  Named

  contexts refer to locales (cf.\ \secref{sec:locale}) or type classes

  (cf.\ \secref{sec:class}); the name ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharminus}{\isachardoublequote}}'' signifies the

  global theory context.

  \end{rail}

  \begin{description}

  \item \hyperlink{command.context}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{context}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymBEGIN}{\isachardoublequote}} recommences an

  existing locale or class context \isa{c}.  Note that locale and

  class definitions allow to include the \hyperlink{keyword.begin}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{begin}}}} keyword as

  well, in order to continue the local theory immediately after the

  initial specification.

  \item \hyperlink{command.local.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} concludes the current local theory

  and continues the enclosing global theory.  Note that a global

  \hyperlink{command.global.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} has a different meaning: it concludes the

  theory itself (\secref{sec:begin-thy}).

  \item \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} given after any local theory command

  specifies an immediate target, e.g.\ ``\hyperlink{command.definition}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{definition}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}'' or ``\hyperlink{command.theorem}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{theorem}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}''.  This works both in a local or

  global theory context; the current target context will be suspended

  for this command only.  Note that ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ {\isacharminus}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' will

  always produce a global result independently of the current target

  context.

  \end{description}

  The exact meaning of results produced within a local theory context

  depends on the underlying target infrastructure (locale, type class

  etc.).  The general idea is as follows, considering a context named

  \isa{c} with parameter \isa{x} and assumption \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}}.

  Definitions are exported by introducing a global version with

  additional arguments; a syntactic abbreviation links the long form

  with the abstract version of the target context.  For example,

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} becomes \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isachardot}a\ {\isacharquery}x\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} at the theory

  level (for arbitrary \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}x{\isachardoublequote}}), together with a local

  abbreviation \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymequiv}\ c{\isachardot}a\ x{\isachardoublequote}} in the target context (for the

  fixed parameter \isa{x}).

  Theorems are exported by discharging the assumptions and

  generalizing the parameters of the context.  For example, \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ B{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} becomes \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isachardot}a{\isacharcolon}\ A{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ B{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}}, again for arbitrary

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}x{\isachardoublequote}}.%

  These specification mechanisms provide a slightly more abstract view

  \secref{sec:axms-thms}).  In particular, type-inference is commonly

  introduces several constants simultaneously and states axiomatic

  properties for these.  The constants are marked as being specified

  once and for all, which prevents additional specifications being

  issued later on.

  Note that axiomatic specifications are only appropriate when

  declaring a new logical system; axiomatic specifications are

  restricted to global theory contexts.  Normal applications should

  only use definitional mechanisms!

  \item \hyperlink{command.definition}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{definition}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}} produces an

  internal definition \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} according to the specification

  given as \isa{eq}, which is then turned into a proven fact.  The

  given proposition may deviate from internal meta-level equality

  according to the rewrite rules declared as \hyperlink{attribute.defn}{\mbox{\isa{defn}}} by the

  object-logic.  This usually covers object-level equality \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharequal}\ y{\isachardoublequote}} and equivalence \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ {\isasymleftrightarrow}\ B{\isachardoublequote}}.  End-users normally need not

  change the \hyperlink{attribute.defn}{\mbox{\isa{defn}}} setup.

  Definitions may be presented with explicit arguments on the LHS, as

  well as additional conditions, e.g.\ \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\ y\ {\isacharequal}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} instead of

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ {\isasymequiv}\ {\isasymlambda}x\ y{\isachardot}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}y\ {\isasymnoteq}\ {\isadigit{0}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ g\ x\ y\ {\isacharequal}\ u{\isachardoublequote}} instead of an

  unrestricted \isa{{\isachardoublequote}g\ {\isasymequiv}\ {\isasymlambda}x\ y{\isachardot}\ u{\isachardoublequote}}.

  \item \hyperlink{command.abbreviation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{abbreviation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}} introduces a

  syntactic constant which is associated with a certain term according

  to the meta-level equality \isa{eq}.

  Abbreviations participate in the usual type-inference process, but

  are expanded before the logic ever sees them.  Pretty printing of

  terms involves higher-order rewriting with rules stemming from

  reverted abbreviations.  This needs some care to avoid overlapping

  or looping syntactic replacements!

  The optional \isa{mode} specification restricts output to a

  particular print mode; using ``\isa{input}'' here achieves the

  effect of one-way abbreviations.  The mode may also include an

  ``\hyperlink{keyword.output}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{output}}}}'' qualifier that affects the concrete syntax

  declared for abbreviations, cf.\ \hyperlink{command.syntax}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{syntax}}}} in

  \secref{sec:syn-trans}.

  \item \hyperlink{command.print-abbrevs}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}abbrevs}}}} prints all constant abbreviations

Arbitrary operations on the background context may be wrapped-up as

  encountered later on.  A fact declaration is an important special

  new locale \isa{loc} as a context consisting of a certain view of

  existing locales (\isa{import}) plus some additional elements

  (\isa{body}).  Both \isa{import} and \isa{body} are optional;

  the degenerate form \hyperlink{command.locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{locale}}}}~\isa{loc} defines an empty

  locale, which may still be useful to collect declarations of facts

  later on.  Type-inference on locale expressions automatically takes

  care of the most general typing that the combined context elements

  may acquire.

  The \isa{import} consists of a structured context expression,

  consisting of references to existing locales, renamed contexts, or

  merged contexts.  Renaming uses positional notation: \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}} means that (a prefix of) the fixed

  parameters of context \isa{c} are named \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}; a ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'' (underscore) means to skip that

  position.  Renaming by default deletes concrete syntax, but new

  syntax may by specified with a mixfix annotation.  An exeption of

  this rule is the special syntax declared with ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymSTRUCTURE}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' (see below), which is neither deleted nor can it

  be changed.  Merging proceeds from left-to-right, suppressing any

  duplicates stemming from different paths through the import

  hierarchy.

  The \isa{body} consists of basic context elements, further context

  expressions may be included as well.

  \begin{description}

  \item \hyperlink{element.fixes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{fixes}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymtau}\ {\isacharparenleft}mx{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} declares a local

  parameter of type \isa{{\isasymtau}} and mixfix annotation \isa{mx} (both

  are optional).  The special syntax declaration ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymSTRUCTURE}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' means that \isa{x} may be referenced

  implicitly in this context.

  \item \hyperlink{element.constrains}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{constrains}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}} introduces a type

  constraint \isa{{\isasymtau}} on the local parameter \isa{x}.

  \item \hyperlink{element.assumes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{assumes}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}

  proof (cf.\ \secref{sec:proof-context}).

  \item \hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ x\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} defines a previously

  declared parameter.  This is similar to \hyperlink{command.def}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{def}}}} within a

  proof (cf.\ \secref{sec:proof-context}), but \hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}

  takes an equational proposition instead of variable-term pair.  The

  left-hand side of the equation may have additional arguments, e.g.\

  ``\hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub n\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}}''.

  reconsiders facts within a local context.  Most notably, this may

  include arbitrary declarations in any attribute specifications

  included here, e.g.\ a local \hyperlink{attribute.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}} rule.

  The initial \isa{import} specification of a locale expression

  maintains a dynamic relation to the locales being referenced

  (benefiting from any later fact declarations in the obvious manner).

  \end{description}

  Note that ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIS}\ p\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ p\isactrlsub n{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' patterns given

  in the syntax of \hyperlink{element.assumes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{assumes}}}} and \hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}} above

  are illegal in locale definitions.  In the long goal format of

  \secref{sec:goals}, term bindings may be included as expected,

  though.

  \medskip By default, locale specifications are ``closed up'' by

  turning the given text into a predicate definition \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms} and deriving the original assumptions as local lemmas

  (modulo local definitions).  The predicate statement covers only the

  newly specified assumptions, omitting the content of included locale

  expressions.  The full cumulative view is only provided on export,

  involving another predicate \isa{loc} that refers to the complete

  specification text.

  In any case, the predicate arguments are those locale parameters

  that actually occur in the respective piece of text.  Also note that

  these predicates operate at the meta-level in theory, but the locale

  packages attempts to internalize statements according to the

  object-logic setup (e.g.\ replacing \isa{{\isasymAnd}} by \isa{{\isasymforall}}, and

  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}} by \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}} in HOL; see also

  \secref{sec:object-logic}).  Separate introduction rules \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms{\isachardot}intro} and \isa{loc{\isachardot}intro} are provided as well.

  \item \hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}import\ {\isacharplus}\ body{\isachardoublequote}} prints the

  specified locale expression in a flattened form.  The notable

  special case \hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}~\isa{loc} just prints the

  contents of the named locale, but keep in mind that type-inference

  will normalize type variables according to the usual alphabetical

  order.  The command omits \hyperlink{element.notes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{notes}}}} elements by default.

  Use \hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbang}{\isachardoublequote}} to get them included.

  \item \hyperlink{command.print-locales}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}} prints the names of all locales

  of the current theory.

  \item \hyperlink{method.intro-locales}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}locales}}} and \hyperlink{method.unfold-locales}{\mbox{\isa{unfold{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}

  repeatedly expand all introduction rules of locale predicates of the

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

Locale expressions (more precisely, \emph{context expressions}) may

  be instantiated, and the instantiated facts added to the current

  context.  This requires a proof of the instantiated specification

  and is called \emph{locale interpretation}.  Interpretation is

  possible in theories and locales (command \hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}}) and also within a proof body (command \hyperlink{command.interpret}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpret}}}}).

  \item \hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}expr\ insts\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eqns{\isachardoublequote}}

  The first form of \hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}} interprets \isa{expr} in the theory.  The instantiation is given as a list of terms

  \isa{insts} and is positional.  All parameters must receive an

  instantiation term --- with the exception of defined parameters.

  These are, if omitted, derived from the defining equation and other

  instantiations.  Use ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'' to omit an instantiation term.

  The command generates proof obligations for the instantiated

  specifications (assumes and defines elements).  Once these are

  discharged by the user, instantiated facts are added to the theory

  in a post-processing phase.

  Additional equations, which are unfolded in facts during

  post-processing, may be given after the keyword \hyperlink{keyword.where}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{where}}}}.

  This is useful for interpreting concepts introduced through

  definition specification elements.  The equations must be proved.

  Note that if equations are present, the context expression is

  restricted to a locale name.

  The command is aware of interpretations already active in the

  theory, but does not simplify the goal automatically.  In order to

  simplify the proof obligations use methods \hyperlink{method.intro-locales}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}

  or \hyperlink{method.unfold-locales}{\mbox{\isa{unfold{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}.  Post-processing is not applied to

  facts of interpretations that are already active.  This avoids

  duplication of interpreted facts, in particular.  Note that, in the

  case of a locale with import, parts of the interpretation may

  already be active.  The command will only process facts for new

  parts.

  The context expression may be preceded by a name, which takes effect

  in the post-processing of facts.  It is used to prefix fact names,

  for example to avoid accidental hiding of other facts.

  Adding facts to locales has the effect of adding interpreted facts

  to the theory for all active interpretations also.  That is,

  interpretations dynamically participate in any facts added to

  locales.

  \item \hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}name\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ expr{\isachardoublequote}}

  This form of the command interprets \isa{expr} in the locale

  \isa{name}.  It requires a proof that the specification of \isa{name} implies the specification of \isa{expr}.  As in the

  localized version of the theorem command, the proof is in the

  context of \isa{name}.  After the proof obligation has been

  dischared, the facts of \isa{expr} become part of locale \isa{name} as \emph{derived} context elements and are available when the

  context \isa{name} is subsequently entered.  Note that, like

  import, this is dynamic: facts added to a locale part of \isa{expr} after interpretation become also available in \isa{name}.

  Like facts of renamed context elements, facts obtained by

  interpretation may be accessed by prefixing with the parameter

  renaming (where the parameters are separated by ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'').

  Unlike interpretation in theories, instantiation is confined to the

  renaming of parameters, which may be specified as part of the

  context expression \isa{expr}.  Using defined parameters in \isa{name} one may achieve an effect similar to instantiation, though.

  Only specification fragments of \isa{expr} that are not already

  part of \isa{name} (be it imported, derived or a derived fragment

  of the import) are considered by interpretation.  This enables

  circular interpretations.

  If interpretations of \isa{name} exist in the current theory, the

  command adds interpretations for \isa{expr} as well, with the same

  prefix and attributes, although only for fragments of \isa{expr}

  that are not interpreted in the theory already.

  \item \hyperlink{command.interpret}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpret}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}expr\ insts\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eqns{\isachardoublequote}}

  interprets \isa{expr} in the proof context and is otherwise

  similar to interpretation in theories.

  \end{description}

  \begin{warn}

    Since attributes are applied to interpreted theorems,

    interpretation may modify the context of common proof tools, e.g.\

    the Simplifier or Classical Reasoner.  Since the behavior of such

    automated reasoning tools is \emph{not} stable under

    interpretation morphisms, manual declarations might have to be

    issued.

  \end{warn}

  \begin{warn}

    An interpretation in a theory may subsume previous

    interpretations.  This happens if the same specification fragment

    is interpreted twice and the instantiation of the second

    interpretation is more general than the interpretation of the

    first.  A warning is issued, since it is likely that these could

    have been generalized in the first place.  The locale package does

    not attempt to remove subsumed interpretations.

A class is a particular locale with \emph{exactly one} type variable

  \isa{{\isasymalpha}}.  Beyond the underlying locale, a corresponding type class

  is established which is interpreted logically as axiomatic type

  class \cite{Wenzel:1997:TPHOL} whose logical content are the

  assumptions of the locale.  Thus, classes provide the full

  generality of locales combined with the commodity of type classes

  (notably type-inference).  See \cite{isabelle-classes} for a short

  introduction rules of this theory.  Note that this method usually

  needs not be named explicitly, as it is already included in the

  default proof step (e.g.\ of \hyperlink{command.proof}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{proof}}}}).  In particular,

  instantiation of trivial (syntactic) classes may be performed by a

Isabelle/Pure's definitional schemes support certain forms of

  overloading (see \secref{sec:consts}).  At most occassions

  overloading will be used in a Haskell-like fashion together with

  type classes by means of \hyperlink{command.instantiation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{instantiation}}}} (see

  \secref{sec:class}).  Sometimes low-level overloading is desirable.

  constants \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}} at particular type instances.  The

  definitions themselves are established using common specification

  tools, using the names \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}} as reference to the

  corresponding constants.  The target is concluded by \hyperlink{command.local.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}}.

  A \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}unchecked{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} option disables global dependency checks for

  the corresponding definition, which is occasionally useful for

  exotic overloading.  It is at the discretion of the user to avoid

}

\isamarkuptrue%

%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%

The class relation together with the collection of

  type-constructor arities must obey the principle of

  \emph{co-regularity} as defined below.

  \medskip For the subsequent formulation of co-regularity we assume

  that the class relation is closed by transitivity and reflexivity.

  Moreover the collection of arities \isa{{\isachardoublequote}t\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlvec s{\isacharparenright}c{\isachardoublequote}} is

  completed such that \isa{{\isachardoublequote}t\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlvec s{\isacharparenright}c{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ c{\isacharprime}{\isachardoublequote}}

  implies \isa{{\isachardoublequote}t\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlvec s{\isacharparenright}c{\isacharprime}{\isachardoublequote}} for all such declarations.

  Treating sorts as finite sets of classes (meaning the intersection),

  the class relation \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isachardoublequote}} is extended to sorts as

  follows:

  \[

    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}\ {\isasymequiv}\ {\isasymforall}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}\ {\isasymin}\ s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isachardot}\ {\isasymexists}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymin}\ s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isachardot}\ c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isachardoublequote}}

  \]

  This relation on sorts is further extended to tuples of sorts (of

  the same length) in the component-wise way.

  \smallskip Co-regularity of the class relation together with the

  arities relation means:

  \[

    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}t\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlvec s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharparenright}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ t\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isacharparenleft}\isactrlvec s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isacharparenright}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ \isactrlvec s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ \isactrlvec s\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isachardoublequote}}

  \]

  \noindent for all such arities.  In other words, whenever the result

  classes of some type-constructor arities are related, then the

  argument sorts need to be related in the same way.

  \medskip Co-regularity is a very fundamental property of the

  order-sorted algebra of types.  For example, it entails principle

  types and most general unifiers, e.g.\ see \cite{nipkow-prehofer}.%
