Abstract
Abstract. We define NanoJava, a kernel of Java tailored to the investigation of Hoare logics. We then introduce a Hoare logic for this language featuring an elegant approach for expressing auxiliary variables: by universal quantification on the outer logical level. Furthermore, we give simple means of handling side-effecting expressions and dynamic binding within method calls. The logic is proved sound and (relatively) complete using Isabelle/HOL. Keywords: Hoare logic, Java, Isabelle/HOL, auxiliary variables, side effects, dynamic binding.
