  Automated theorem proving - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interactive provers are used for a variety of tasks, but even fully automatic systems have by now proven a number of interesting and hard theorems, including some that have eluded human mathematicians for a long time.
A good example of this was the machine-aided proof of the four color theorem, which was very controversial as the first claimed mathematical proof which was essentially impossible to verify by humans due to the enormous size of the program's calculation (such proofs are called non-surveyable proofs).
E is a high-performance prover built on a purely equational calculus, developed primarily in the automated reasoning group of Technical University of Munich.

 The E Equational Theorem Prover
E is a a purely equational theorem prover for full first-order logic.
E's inference core is based on a modified version of the superposition calculus for equational clausal logic as described in [BG94].
E also demands that each symbol is used only as a function symbol, a predicate, or a constant (SETHEO allows the same symbol to take on more than one role in different contexts, which is clearly the Wrong Thing).

This causes the prover to be potentially incomplete, but will allow you to limit the maximum amount of memory used fairly well.
A value of 0 means no rewriting, 1 indicates to use rules (orientable equations) only, 2 indicates full rewriting with rules and instances of unorientable equations.

 Introduction; the Basic Session Model
The basic model for a session under this prover is that the user enters a term in the internal language of the prover, further restrained by declarations of constants and operations in the theory in which the user is working.
The user views a selected subterm of the current version of the right side of the equation; he may issue ``movement'' commands which change which subterm is selected, or he may apply theorems as rewrite rules to the selected subterm.
When the equation has assumed the form the user wants, it is ``proved'' as a theorem and becomes available for use as a rewrite rule.

For example, if you give it the axioms for a group and state that there are two noncommuting elements, it will produce a noncommutative group.

ACL2 is a theorem proving system produced at Computational Logic, Inc. The acronym ``ACL2'' stands for ``A Computational Logic for Applicative Common Lisp.'' ACL2 is similar to the Boyer-Moore theorem prover, Nqthm, and Kaufmann's interactive extension, Pc-Nqthm.
The proof attempt will typically fail, but examination of the prover's log (which is in English) will reveal either a flaw in the conjecture or a lemma that the prover needs to be aware of to succeed.

This theorem was proved automatically by EQP, a theorem proving program developed at Argonne National Laboratory.
The proof that solves the Robbins problem was found October 10, 1996, by the theorem prover EQP.
Our approach to this problem is to have the theorem prover construct a detailed proof object and have a very simple program (written in a high-level language) check that the proof object is correct.

They differ in their degree of automation respectively interaction with a human counterpart: some, like the PVS verifier [104] or Coq [103] are proof assistants more than automated provers; others, like Theorema [125], aim at utmost automation of the proving process.
Because of the variety of different provers with different capabilities, their integration has been always of big interest [60][58].
This is not surprising, because the topics are actually closely related; for instance, the Theorema system developed at RISC-Linz not only combines different provers into a natural deduction environment [20] but uses external computer algebra solvers for finding witnesses of existential formulas [14].

E is a a purely equational theorem prover for clausal logic.
That means it is a program that you can stuff a mathematical specification (in clausal logic with equality) and a hypothesis into, and which will then run forever, using up all of your machines resources.
Very occasionally it will find a proof for the hypothesis and tell you so ;-).

Be warned that this can consume inane (in fact, theoretically unlimited) amounts of CPU time and memory for diffcult problems.
This makes it possible to get good results even with low to medium amounts of memory (32 MB should work fine even for many hard proof problems).

 Sau La Lodtua: 94/1
For the last two or three years, I have been writing an equational theorem prover, first in the research language Standard ML and now in C++.
The logical capabilities of the prover are more than ample for the needs of the logic implemented in Loglan, although the underlying logical paradigm is somewhat different.
For example, I have written a "program" under the prover which automatically "simplifies" expressions in the propositional calculus and incidentally identifies tautologies.

 Maude Manual -- 2.3 Module Hierarchies
As already mentioned, and further explained in Section 4, a system module is a rewrite theory with initial semantics.
Note that we can use the inclusion of membership equational logic into rewriting logic to view a functional module specifying an equational theory (Omega,E) as a degenerate case of a rewrite theory, namely the rewrite theory (Omega,E,Ø,Ø).
Using the proof techniques in [4] together with an inductive theorem prover for membership equational logic and a Church-Rosser checker such as those described in [12], this can be done for functional modules; and it seems natural to expect that these techniques and tools will extend to similar ones for rewrite theories.
