Zenon is a first-order automated theorem prover based on the tableau method. It is used in the FoCaLiZe project.
Under the new BSD License (see the file LICENSE for details)
This depends on:
OCaml >= 4.02.1
ZArith >= 1.3
Coq >= 8.0
- Graphviz (optional)
In order to compile, use :
./configure
make
This should make available to you the zenon
executable in the root directory.
If you want to install the binary, then issue the following command:
make install
In order to use zenon on problems from the tptp problem library, be suze to use
the -itptp
option in order to set the corret input parser. A standard use of
zenon would then look like this:
./zenon -itptp -max-time 60s -max-size 1G /path/to/tptp/problem.p
In order to activate the arithmetic extension of zenon, you have to use the
-x arith
option. You should also use the -k
option, in order to activate
the arithmetic instantiation search. A usual use of zenon on an arithemtic
problem would look like:
./zenon -itptp -max-time 60s -max-size 1G \
-k -x arith $TPTP/Problems/ARI/ARI001\=1.p
In order to output checkable coq proofs, you have to use the -ocoq
option.
Additionally, you should use the -context
and -opt0
option. A complete
execution of zenon and checking of the proof by the coq compiler afterwards
would look like the following, assuming that your current working directory
is the zenon root directory.
./zenon -itptp -max-time 5s -max-size 1G -k -x arith \
-ocoq -context -opt0 $TPTP/Problems/ARI/ARI001\=1.p > temp.v
coqc -I ./ temp.v
If no erros are produced, and the coqc
command has return code 0
, it means
everything went well and the proof has been accepted by the coq compiler.
The version number starts from scratch fro this extension, but this extension will be merged into the main branch of Zenon sooner or later.
In the source directory, you will find a file linear_ari_tptp.list
, which
contains a list of linear problems of the ARI
section of the tptp library.
These problems only involve linear arithmetic, and do not use the $to_int
,
$to_rat
, $to_real
, $is_int
or $is_rat
functions and predicates.
This is the list of files used to benchmark the arithmetic extension of zenon
against the princess and beagle automated provers.
