 \begin{isamarkuptext}%

 Isabelle/Pure maintains a record of named configuration

   options within the theory or proof context, with values of type

   \verb|bool|, \verb|int|, \verb|real|, or \verb|string|.  Tools may declare options in ML, and then refer to these

   values (relative to the context).  Thus global reference variables

   are easily avoided.  The user may change the value of a

   configuration option by means of an associated attribute of the same

   name.  This form of context declaration works particularly well with

   commands such as \hyperlink{command.declare}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{declare}}}} or \hyperlink{command.using}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{using}}}} like

   this:%

 For historical reasons, some tools cannot take the full proof

   context into account and merely refer to the background theory.

   This is accommodated by configuration options being declared as

   ``global'', which may not be changed within a local context.

   method (see \secref{sec:pure-meth-att}), but apply rules by

   elim-resolution, destruct-resolution, and forward-resolution,

   respectively \cite{isabelle-implementation}.  The optional natural

   number argument (default 0) specifies additional assumption steps to

   be performed here.

   Note that these methods are improper ones, mainly serving for

   experimentation and tactic script emulation.  Different modes of

   basic rule application are usually expressed in Isar at the proof

   language level, rather than via implicit proof state manipulations.

   For example, a proper single-step elimination would be done using

   the plain \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} method, with forward chaining of current

   facts.

   \item \hyperlink{method.succeed}{\mbox{\isa{succeed}}} yields a single (unchanged) result; it is

   \secref{sec:proof-meth}).

   \item \hyperlink{method.fail}{\mbox{\isa{fail}}} yields an empty result sequence; it is the

   identity of the ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{7C}{\isacharbar}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' method combinator (cf.\

   \secref{sec:proof-meth}).

   theorem by \isa{n} (default 1).

   \item \hyperlink{attribute.Pure.elim-format}{\mbox{\isa{elim{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}format}}} turns a destruction rule into

   elimination rule format, by resolving with the rule \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}PROP\ A\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}PROP\ A\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ PROP\ B{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ PROP\ B{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.

   Note that the Classical Reasoner (\secref{sec:classical}) provides

   its own version of this operation.

   \item \hyperlink{attribute.standard}{\mbox{\isa{standard}}} puts a theorem into the standard form of

   object-rules at the outermost theory level.  Note that this

   operation violates the local proof context (including active

   locales).

   \item \hyperlink{attribute.no-vars}{\mbox{\isa{no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}vars}}} replaces schematic variables by free

   ones; this is mainly for tuning output of pretty printed theorems.

   These methods provide low-level facilities for equational reasoning

   that are intended for specialized applications only.  Normally,

   single step calculations would be performed in a structured text

   (see also \secref{sec:calculation}), while the Simplifier methods

   provide the canonical way for automated normalization (see

   \secref{sec:simplifier}).

   \begin{description}

   \item \hyperlink{method.subst}{\mbox{\isa{subst}}}~\isa{eq} performs a single substitution step

   using rule \isa{eq}, which may be either a meta or object

   equality.

   assumption.

   substitutions in the conclusion. The numbers \isa{i} to \isa{j}

   indicate the positions to substitute at.  Positions are ordered from

   the top of the term tree moving down from left to right. For

   example, in \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}a\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ b{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}c\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ d{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} there are three positions

   where commutativity of \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} is applicable: 1 refers to \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}a\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ b{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}, 2 to the whole term, and 3 to \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}c\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ d{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.

   If the positions in the list \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}i\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}\ j{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} are non-overlapping

   assume all substitutions are performed simultaneously.  Otherwise

   the behaviour of \isa{subst} is not specified.

   \item \hyperlink{method.subst}{\mbox{\isa{subst}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}asm{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}i\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}\ j{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ eq{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} performs the

   substitutions in the assumptions. The positions refer to the

   assumptions in order from left to right.  For example, given in a

   goal of the form \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}P\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}a\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ b{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ P\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}c\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ d{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}, position 1 of

   commutativity of \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} is the subterm \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}a\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ b{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and

   position 2 is the subterm \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}c\ {\isaliteral{2B}{\isacharplus}}\ d{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.

   \item \hyperlink{method.hypsubst}{\mbox{\isa{hypsubst}}} performs substitution using some

   assumption; this only works for equations of the form \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}x\ {\isaliteral{3D}{\isacharequal}}\ t{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} where \isa{x} is a free or bound variable.

   \item \hyperlink{method.split}{\mbox{\isa{split}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}a\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}\ a\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub n{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} performs single-step case

   splitting using the given rules.  By default, splitting is performed

   in the conclusion of a goal; the \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}asm{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} option indicates to

   operate on assumptions instead.

   Note that the \hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}} method already involves repeated

   application of split rules as declared in the current context.

 \isamarkupsubsection{Further tactic emulations \label{sec:tactics}%

 }

 \isamarkuptrue%

 %

 \begin{isamarkuptext}%

 The following improper proof methods emulate traditional tactics.

   These admit direct access to the goal state, which is normally

   considered harmful!  In particular, this may involve both numbered

   goal addressing (default 1), and dynamic instantiation within the

   scope of some subgoal.

   \begin{warn}

     Dynamic instantiations refer to universally quantified parameters

     of a subgoal (the dynamic context) rather than fixed variables and

     term abbreviations of a (static) Isar context.

   \end{warn}

   Tactic emulation methods, unlike their ML counterparts, admit

   simultaneous instantiation from both dynamic and static contexts.

   If names occur in both contexts goal parameters hide locally fixed

   variables.  Likewise, schematic variables refer to term

   abbreviations, if present in the static context.  Otherwise the

   schematic variable is interpreted as a schematic variable and left

   to be solved by unification with certain parts of the subgoal.

   Note that the tactic emulation proof methods in Isabelle/Isar are

   consistently named \isa{foo{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}.  Note also that variable names

   occurring on left hand sides of instantiations must be preceded by a

   question mark if they coincide with a keyword or contain dots.  This

   is consistent with the attribute \hyperlink{attribute.where}{\mbox{\isa{where}}} (see

   \secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).

 \begin{description}

   \item \hyperlink{method.rule-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}} etc. do resolution of rules with explicit

   instantiation.  This works the same way as the ML tactics \verb|res_inst_tac| etc. (see \cite{isabelle-implementation})

   Multiple rules may be only given if there is no instantiation; then

   \hyperlink{method.rule-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}} is the same as \verb|resolve_tac| in ML (see

   \cite{isabelle-implementation}).

   \item \hyperlink{method.cut-tac}{\mbox{\isa{cut{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}} inserts facts into the proof state as

   assumption of a subgoal, see also \verb|Tactic.cut_facts_tac| in

   \cite{isabelle-implementation}.  Note that the scope of schematic

   variables is spread over the main goal statement.  Instantiations

   may be given as well, see also ML tactic \verb|cut_inst_tac| in

   \cite{isabelle-implementation}.

   \item \hyperlink{method.thin-tac}{\mbox{\isa{thin{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{5C3C7068693E}{\isasymphi}}} deletes the specified assumption

   from a subgoal; note that \isa{{\isaliteral{5C3C7068693E}{\isasymphi}}} may contain schematic variables.

   See also \verb|thin_tac| in \cite{isabelle-implementation}.

   \item \hyperlink{method.subgoal-tac}{\mbox{\isa{subgoal{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{5C3C7068693E}{\isasymphi}}} adds \isa{{\isaliteral{5C3C7068693E}{\isasymphi}}} as an

   assumption to a subgoal.  See also \verb|subgoal_tac| and \verb|subgoals_tac| in \cite{isabelle-implementation}.

   \item \hyperlink{method.rename-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rename{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}x\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}\ x\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub n{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} renames parameters of a

   goal according to the list \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}x\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isaliteral{2C}{\isacharcomma}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}{\isaliteral{2C}{\isacharcomma}}\ x\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub n{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}, which refers to the

   \emph{suffix} of variables.

   \item \hyperlink{method.rotate-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rotate{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tac}}}~\isa{n} rotates the assumptions of a

   goal by \isa{n} positions: from right to left if \isa{n} is

   positive, and from left to right if \isa{n} is negative; the

   default value is 1.  See also \verb|rotate_tac| in

   \cite{isabelle-implementation}.

   \item \hyperlink{method.tactic}{\mbox{\isa{tactic}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}text{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} produces a proof method from

   any ML text of type \verb|tactic|.  Apart from the usual ML

   environment and the current proof context, the ML code may refer to

   the locally bound values \verb|facts|, which indicates any

   current facts used for forward-chaining.

   \item \hyperlink{method.raw-tactic}{\mbox{\isa{raw{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}tactic}}} is similar to \hyperlink{method.tactic}{\mbox{\isa{tactic}}}, but

   presents the goal state in its raw internal form, where simultaneous

   subgoals appear as conjunction of the logical framework instead of

   the usual split into several subgoals.  While feature this is useful

   for debugging of complex method definitions, it should not never

   appear in production theories.

   \begin{description}

   \item \hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}} invokes the Simplifier, after declaring

   additional rules according to the arguments given.  Note that the

   \isa{only} modifier first removes all other rewrite rules,

   congruences, and looper tactics (including splits), and then behaves

   like \isa{add}.

   \medskip The \isa{cong} modifiers add or delete Simplifier

   congruence rules (see also \cite{isabelle-ref}), the default is to

   add.

   \medskip The \isa{split} modifiers add or delete rules for the

   Splitter (see also \cite{isabelle-ref}), the default is to add.

   This works only if the Simplifier method has been properly setup to

   include the Splitter (all major object logics such HOL, HOLCF, FOL,

   ZF do this already).

   \item \hyperlink{method.simp-all}{\mbox{\isa{simp{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}all}}} is similar to \hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}}, but acts on

   all goals (backwards from the last to the first one).

   \end{description}

   By default the Simplifier methods take local assumptions fully into

   account, using equational assumptions in the subsequent

   normalization process, or simplifying assumptions themselves (cf.\

   \verb|asm_full_simp_tac| in \cite{isabelle-ref}).  In structured

   proofs this is usually quite well behaved in practice: just the

   local premises of the actual goal are involved, additional facts may

   be inserted via explicit forward-chaining (via \hyperlink{command.then}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{then}}}},

   \hyperlink{command.from}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{from}}}}, \hyperlink{command.using}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{using}}}} etc.).

   Additional Simplifier options may be specified to tune the behavior

   further (mostly for unstructured scripts with many accidental local

   facts): ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}asm{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' means assumptions are ignored

   completely (cf.\ \verb|simp_tac|), ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}asm{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}simp{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' means

   assumptions are used in the simplification of the conclusion but are

   not themselves simplified (cf.\ \verb|asm_simp_tac|), and ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}asm{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}use{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' means assumptions are simplified but are not used

   in the simplification of each other or the conclusion (cf.\ \verb|full_simp_tac|).  For compatibility reasons, there is also an option

   ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}asm{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}lr{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'', which means that an assumption is only used

   for simplifying assumptions which are to the right of it (cf.\ \verb|asm_lr_simp_tac|).

   The configuration option \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}depth{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}limit{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} limits the number of

   recursive invocations of the simplifier during conditional

   rewriting.

   \medskip The Splitter package is usually configured to work as part

   of the Simplifier.  The effect of repeatedly applying \verb|split_tac| can be simulated by ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}simp\ only{\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}\ split{\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}\ a\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C646F74733E}{\isasymdots}}\ a\isaliteral{5C3C5E7375623E}{}\isactrlsub n{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}''.  There is also a separate \isa{split}

   method available for single-step case splitting.%

   \item \hyperlink{command.simproc-setup}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{simproc{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}setup}}}} defines a named simplification

   procedure that is invoked by the Simplifier whenever any of the

   given term patterns match the current redex.  The implementation,

   which is provided as ML source text, needs to be of type \verb|morphism -> simpset -> cterm -> thm option|, where the \verb|cterm| represents the current redex \isa{r} and the result is

   supposed to be some proven rewrite rule \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}r\ {\isaliteral{5C3C65717569763E}{\isasymequiv}}\ r{\isaliteral{27}{\isacharprime}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} (or a

   generalized version), or \verb|NONE| to indicate failure.  The

   \verb|simpset| argument holds the full context of the current

   Simplifier invocation, including the actual Isar proof context.  The

   \verb|morphism| informs about the difference of the original

   compilation context wrt.\ the one of the actual application later

   on.  The optional \hyperlink{keyword.identifier}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{identifier}}}} specifies theorems that

   represent the logical content of the abstract theory of this

   simproc.

   Morphisms and identifiers are only relevant for simprocs that are

   defined within a local target context, e.g.\ in a locale.

   \item \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}simproc\ add{\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}\ name{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}simproc\ del{\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}\ name{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}

   add or delete named simprocs to the current Simplifier context.  The

   default is to add a simproc.  Note that \hyperlink{command.simproc-setup}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{simproc{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}setup}}}}

   already adds the new simproc to the subsequent context.

   conclusion; the options \isa{no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}asm} etc.\ tune the Simplifier in

   Note that forward simplification restricts the simplifier to its

   most basic operation of term rewriting; solver and looper tactics

   \cite{isabelle-ref} are \emph{not} involved here.  The \isa{simplified} attribute should be only rarely required under normal

   \item \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} as offered by the Classical Reasoner is a

   refinement over the primitive one (see \secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).

   Both versions essentially work the same, but the classical version

   observes the classical rule context in addition to that of

   Isabelle/Pure.

   Common object logics (HOL, ZF, etc.) declare a rich collection of

   classical rules (even if these would qualify as intuitionistic

   ones), but only few declarations to the rule context of

   Isabelle/Pure (\secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).

   \item \hyperlink{method.contradiction}{\mbox{\isa{contradiction}}} solves some goal by contradiction,

   deriving any result from both \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C6E6F743E}{\isasymnot}}\ A{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and \isa{A}.  Chained

   facts, which are guaranteed to participate, may appear in either

   order.

   \item \hyperlink{method.intro}{\mbox{\isa{intro}}} and \hyperlink{method.elim}{\mbox{\isa{elim}}} repeatedly refine some goal

   by intro- or elim-resolution, after having inserted any chained

   facts.  Exactly the rules given as arguments are taken into account;

   this allows fine-tuned decomposition of a proof problem, in contrast

   to common automated tools.

   \item \hyperlink{attribute.intro}{\mbox{\isa{intro}}}, \hyperlink{attribute.elim}{\mbox{\isa{elim}}}, and \hyperlink{attribute.dest}{\mbox{\isa{dest}}}

   declare introduction, elimination, and destruction rules,

   (i.e.\ not applied blindly without backtracking), while ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{21}{\isacharbang}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' classifies as \emph{safe}.  Rule declarations marked by

   ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{3F}{\isacharquery}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' coincide with those of Isabelle/Pure, cf.\

   \secref{sec:pure-meth-att} (i.e.\ are only applied in single steps

   of the \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} method).  The optional natural number

   specifies an explicit weight argument, which is ignored by automated

   tools, but determines the search order of single rule steps.

   The very starting point for any Isabelle object-logic is a ``truth

   judgment'' that links object-level statements to the meta-logic

   (with its minimal language of \isa{prop} that covers universal

   quantification \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C416E643E}{\isasymAnd}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and implication \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}).

   Common object-logics are sufficiently expressive to internalize rule

   statements over \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C416E643E}{\isasymAnd}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} within their own

   language.  This is useful in certain situations where a rule needs

   to be viewed as an atomic statement from the meta-level perspective,

   e.g.\ \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C416E643E}{\isasymAnd}}x{\isaliteral{2E}{\isachardot}}\ x\ {\isaliteral{5C3C696E3E}{\isasymin}}\ A\ {\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}\ P\ x{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} versus \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C666F72616C6C3E}{\isasymforall}}x\ {\isaliteral{5C3C696E3E}{\isasymin}}\ A{\isaliteral{2E}{\isachardot}}\ P\ x{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.

   From the following language elements, only the \hyperlink{method.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}}

   method and \hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}format}}} attribute are occasionally

   required by end-users, the rest is for those who need to setup their

   own object-logic.  In the latter case existing formulations of

   Isabelle/FOL or Isabelle/HOL may be taken as realistic examples.

   Generic tools may refer to the information provided by object-logic

   declarations internally.

   \item \hyperlink{command.judgment}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{judgment}}}}~\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}c\ {\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}{\isaliteral{3A}{\isacharcolon}}\ {\isaliteral{5C3C7369676D613E}{\isasymsigma}}\ {\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}mx{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} declares constant

   \isa{c} as the truth judgment of the current object-logic.  Its

   type \isa{{\isaliteral{5C3C7369676D613E}{\isasymsigma}}} should specify a coercion of the category of

   object-level propositions to \isa{prop} of the Pure meta-logic;

   the mixfix annotation \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}mx{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} would typically just link the

   object language (internally of syntactic category \isa{logic})

   with that of \isa{prop}.  Only one \hyperlink{command.judgment}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{judgment}}}}

   declaration may be given in any theory development.

   \item \hyperlink{method.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} (as a method) rewrites any non-atomic

   premises of a sub-goal, using the meta-level equations declared via

   \hyperlink{attribute.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} (as an attribute) beforehand.  As a result,

   heavily nested goals become amenable to fundamental operations such

   as resolution (cf.\ the \hyperlink{method.Pure.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} method).  Giving the ``\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}full{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}'' option here means to turn the whole subgoal into an

   object-statement (if possible), including the outermost parameters

   and assumptions as well.

   A typical collection of \hyperlink{attribute.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} rules for a particular

   object-logic would provide an internalization for each of the

   connectives of \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C416E643E}{\isasymAnd}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}, \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}, and \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C65717569763E}{\isasymequiv}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.

   Meta-level conjunction should be covered as well (this is

   particularly important for locales, see \secref{sec:locale}).

   \item \hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}format}}} rewrites a theorem by the equalities

   declared as \hyperlink{attribute.rulify}{\mbox{\isa{rulify}}} rules in the current object-logic.

   By default, the result is fully normalized, including assumptions

   and conclusions at any depth.  The \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{28}{\isacharparenleft}}no{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}asm{\isaliteral{29}{\isacharparenright}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} option

   restricts the transformation to the conclusion of a rule.

   In common object-logics (HOL, FOL, ZF), the effect of \hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isaliteral{5F}{\isacharunderscore}}format}}} is to replace (bounded) universal quantification

   (\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C666F72616C6C3E}{\isasymforall}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}) and implication (\isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C6C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymlongrightarrow}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}) by the corresponding

   rule statements over \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C416E643E}{\isasymAnd}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}} and \isa{{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}{\isaliteral{5C3C4C6F6E6772696768746172726F773E}{\isasymLongrightarrow}}{\isaliteral{22}{\isachardoublequote}}}.
