7 The purpose of this section is twofold: to demonstrate
8 some of the induction principles and heuristics discussed above and to
9 show how inductive definitions can simplify proofs.
10 In \S\ref{sec:CTL} we gave a fairly involved proof of the correctness of a
11 model checker for CTL\@. In particular the proof of the
12 @{thm[source]infinity_lemma} on the way to @{thm[source]AF_lemma2} is not as
13 simple as one might expect, due to the @{text SOME} operator
14 involved. Below we give a simpler proof of @{thm[source]AF_lemma2}
15 based on an auxiliary inductive definition.
17 Let us call a (finite or infinite) path \emph{@{term A}-avoiding} if it does
18 not touch any node in the set @{term A}. Then @{thm[source]AF_lemma2} says
19 that if no infinite path from some state @{term s} is @{term A}-avoiding,
20 then @{prop"s \<in> lfp(af A)"}. We prove this by inductively defining the set
21 @{term"Avoid s A"} of states reachable from @{term s} by a finite @{term
23 % Second proof of opposite direction, directly by well-founded induction
24 % on the initial segment of M that avoids A.
28 Avoid :: "state \<Rightarrow> state set \<Rightarrow> state set"
29 for s :: state and A :: "state set"
32 | "\<lbrakk> t \<in> Avoid s A; t \<notin> A; (t,u) \<in> M \<rbrakk> \<Longrightarrow> u \<in> Avoid s A";
35 It is easy to see that for any infinite @{term A}-avoiding path @{term f}
36 with @{prop"f(0::nat) \<in> Avoid s A"} there is an infinite @{term A}-avoiding path
37 starting with @{term s} because (by definition of @{const Avoid}) there is a
38 finite @{term A}-avoiding path from @{term s} to @{term"f(0::nat)"}.
39 The proof is by induction on @{prop"f(0::nat) \<in> Avoid s A"}. However,
40 this requires the following
41 reformulation, as explained in \S\ref{sec:ind-var-in-prems} above;
42 the @{text rule_format} directive undoes the reformulation after the proof.
45 lemma ex_infinite_path[rule_format]:
46 "t \<in> Avoid s A \<Longrightarrow>
47 \<forall>f\<in>Paths t. (\<forall>i. f i \<notin> A) \<longrightarrow> (\<exists>p\<in>Paths s. \<forall>i. p i \<notin> A)";
48 apply(erule Avoid.induct);
51 apply(drule_tac x = "\<lambda>i. case i of 0 \<Rightarrow> t | Suc i \<Rightarrow> f i" in bspec);
52 apply(simp_all add: Paths_def split: nat.split);
56 The base case (@{prop"t = s"}) is trivial and proved by @{text blast}.
57 In the induction step, we have an infinite @{term A}-avoiding path @{term f}
58 starting from @{term u}, a successor of @{term t}. Now we simply instantiate
59 the @{text"\<forall>f\<in>Paths t"} in the induction hypothesis by the path starting with
60 @{term t} and continuing with @{term f}. That is what the above $\lambda$-term
61 expresses. Simplification shows that this is a path starting with @{term t}
62 and that the instantiated induction hypothesis implies the conclusion.
64 Now we come to the key lemma. Assuming that no infinite @{term A}-avoiding
65 path starts from @{term s}, we want to show @{prop"s \<in> lfp(af A)"}. For the
66 inductive proof this must be generalized to the statement that every point @{term t}
67 ``between'' @{term s} and @{term A}, in other words all of @{term"Avoid s A"},
68 is contained in @{term"lfp(af A)"}:
71 lemma Avoid_in_lfp[rule_format(no_asm)]:
72 "\<forall>p\<in>Paths s. \<exists>i. p i \<in> A \<Longrightarrow> t \<in> Avoid s A \<longrightarrow> t \<in> lfp(af A)";
75 The proof is by induction on the ``distance'' between @{term t} and @{term
76 A}. Remember that @{prop"lfp(af A) = A \<union> M\<inverse> `` lfp(af A)"}.
77 If @{term t} is already in @{term A}, then @{prop"t \<in> lfp(af A)"} is
78 trivial. If @{term t} is not in @{term A} but all successors are in
79 @{term"lfp(af A)"} (induction hypothesis), then @{prop"t \<in> lfp(af A)"} is
82 The formal counterpart of this proof sketch is a well-founded induction
83 on~@{term M} restricted to @{term"Avoid s A - A"}, roughly speaking:
84 @{term[display]"{(y,x). (x,y) \<in> M \<and> x \<in> Avoid s A \<and> x \<notin> A}"}
85 As we shall see presently, the absence of infinite @{term A}-avoiding paths
86 starting from @{term s} implies well-foundedness of this relation. For the
87 moment we assume this and proceed with the induction:
90 apply(subgoal_tac "wf{(y,x). (x,y) \<in> M \<and> x \<in> Avoid s A \<and> x \<notin> A}");
91 apply(erule_tac a = t in wf_induct);
93 (*<*)apply(rename_tac t)(*>*)
96 @{subgoals[display,indent=0,margin=65]}
97 Now the induction hypothesis states that if @{prop"t \<notin> A"}
98 then all successors of @{term t} that are in @{term"Avoid s A"} are in
99 @{term"lfp (af A)"}. Unfolding @{term lfp} in the conclusion of the first
100 subgoal once, we have to prove that @{term t} is in @{term A} or all successors
101 of @{term t} are in @{term"lfp (af A)"}. But if @{term t} is not in @{term A},
103 @{const Avoid}-rule implies that all successors of @{term t} are in
104 @{term"Avoid s A"}, because we also assume @{prop"t \<in> Avoid s A"}.
105 Hence, by the induction hypothesis, all successors of @{term t} are indeed in
106 @{term"lfp(af A)"}. Mechanically:
109 apply(subst lfp_unfold[OF mono_af]);
110 apply(simp (no_asm) add: af_def);
111 apply(blast intro: Avoid.intros);
114 Having proved the main goal, we return to the proof obligation that the
115 relation used above is indeed well-founded. This is proved by contradiction: if
116 the relation is not well-founded then there exists an infinite @{term
117 A}-avoiding path all in @{term"Avoid s A"}, by theorem
118 @{thm[source]wf_iff_no_infinite_down_chain}:
119 @{thm[display]wf_iff_no_infinite_down_chain[no_vars]}
120 From lemma @{thm[source]ex_infinite_path} the existence of an infinite
121 @{term A}-avoiding path starting in @{term s} follows, contradiction.
124 apply(erule contrapos_pp);
125 apply(simp add: wf_iff_no_infinite_down_chain);
127 apply(rule ex_infinite_path);
128 apply(auto simp add: Paths_def);
132 The @{text"(no_asm)"} modifier of the @{text"rule_format"} directive in the
133 statement of the lemma means
134 that the assumption is left unchanged; otherwise the @{text"\<forall>p"}
136 into a @{text"\<And>p"}, which would complicate matters below. As it is,
137 @{thm[source]Avoid_in_lfp} is now
138 @{thm[display]Avoid_in_lfp[no_vars]}
139 The main theorem is simply the corollary where @{prop"t = s"},
140 when the assumption @{prop"t \<in> Avoid s A"} is trivially true
141 by the first @{const Avoid}-rule. Isabelle confirms this:%
144 theorem AF_lemma2: "{s. \<forall>p \<in> Paths s. \<exists> i. p i \<in> A} \<subseteq> lfp(af A)";
