additive_combination Tactic #

In this file, the additive_combination tactic is created. This tactic, which works over AddGroups, attempts to simplify the target by creating a additive combination of a list of equalities and subtracting it from the target. This file also includes a definition for additive_combination_config. A additive_combination_config object can be passed into the tactic, allowing the user to specify a normalization tactic.

Implementation Notes #

This tactic works by creating a weighted sum of the given equations with the given coefficients. Then, it subtracts the right side of the weighted sum from the left side so that the right side equals 0, and it does the same with the target. Afterwards, it sets the goal to be the equality between the lefthand side of the new goal and the lefthand side of the new weighted sum. Lastly, calls a normalization tactic on this target.

Performs macro expansion of a additive combination expression, using +/-/*// on equations and values.

  • .proof p means that p is a syntax corresponding to a proof of an equation. For example, if h : a = b then expandAdditiveCombo (2 • h) returns .proof (c_add_pf 2 h) which is a proof of 2 • a = 2 • b.
  • .const c means that the input expression is not an equation but a value.

    additive_combination attempts to simplify the target by creating a additive combination of a list of equalities and subtracting it from the target. The tactic will create a additive combination by adding the equalities together from left to right, so the order of the input hypotheses does matter. If the normalize field of the configuration is set to false, then the tactic will simply set the user up to prove their target using the additive combination instead of normalizing the subtraction.

    Note: The left and right sides of all the equalities should have the same type, and the coefficients should also have this type. There must be instances of Mul and AddGroup for this type.

    • The input e in additive_combination e is a additive combination of proofs of equalities, given as a sum/difference of coefficients multiplied by expressions. The coefficients may be arbitrary expressions. The expressions can be arbitrary proof terms proving equalities. Most commonly they are hypothesis names h1, h2, ....
    • additive_combination (norm := tac) e runs the "normalization tactic" tac on the subgoal(s) after constructing the additive combination.
      • The default normalization tactic is abel, which closes the goal or fails.
      • To avoid normalization entirely, use skip as the normalization tactic.
    • additive_combination (exp := n) e will take the goal to the nth power before subtracting the combination e. In other words, if the goal is t1 = t2, additive_combination (exp := n) e will change the goal to (t1 - t2)^n = 0 before proceeding as above. This feature is not supported for additive_combination2.
