Integrating a SAT Solver with an LCF-style Theorem Prover

Tjark Weber · Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science · 2006

This paper describes the integration of a leading SAT solver with Isabelle/HOL, a popular interactive theorem prover. The SAT solver generates resolution-style proofs for (instances of) propositional tautologies. These proofs are verified by the theorem prover. The presented approach significantly improves Isabelle's performance on propositional problems, and furthermore exhibits counterexamples for unprovable conjectures.
