Abstract. Formal system development needs expressive specification languages, but also calls for highly automated tools. These two goals are not easy to reconcile, especially if one also aims at high assurances for correctness. In this paper, we describe a combination of Isabelle/HOL with a proof-producing SMT (Satisfiability Modulo Theories) solver that contains a SAT engine and a decision procedure for quantifier-free first-order logic with equality. As a result, a user benefits from the expressiveness of Isabelle/HOL when modeling a system, but obtains much better automation for those fragments of the proofs that fall within the scope of the (automatic) SMT solver. Soundness is not compromised because all proofs are submitted to the trusted kernel of Isabelle for certification. This architecture is straightforward to extend for other interactive proof assistants and proof-producing reasoners. 1

Abstract. When goals fall in decidable logic fragments, users of proofassistants expect automation. However, despite the availability of decision procedures, automation does not come for free. The reason is that decision procedures do not generate proof terms. In this paper, we show how to design efficient and lightweight reflexive tactics for a hierarchy of quantifier-free fragments of integer arithmetics. The tactics can cope with a wide class of linear and non-linear goals. For each logic fragment, off-the-shelf algorithms generate certificates of infeasibility that are then validated by straightforward reflexive checkers proved correct inside the proof-assistant. This approach has been prototyped using the Coq proofassistant. Preliminary experiments are promising as the tactics run fast and produce small proof terms. 1

We report initial results on shortening propositional resolution refutation proofs. This has an application in speeding up deductive reconstruction (in theorem provers) of large propositional refutations, such as those produced by SAT-solvers.
