  These specification mechanisms provide a slightly more abstract view
  than the underlying primitives of \hyperlink{command.consts}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{consts}}}}, \hyperlink{command.defs}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{defs}}}} (see \secref{sec:consts}), and \hyperlink{command.axioms}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{axioms}}}} (see
  \secref{sec:axms-thms}).  In particular, type-inference is commonly
  available, and result names need not be given.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.axiomatization}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{axiomatization}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ c\isactrlsub m\ {\isasymWHERE}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}] introduces several constants
  simultaneously and states axiomatic properties for these.  The
  constants are marked as being specified once and for all, which
  prevents additional specifications being issued later on.
  
  Note that axiomatic specifications are only appropriate when
  declaring a new logical system.  Normal applications should only use
  definitional mechanisms!

  \item [\hyperlink{command.definition}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{definition}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}}] produces an
  internal definition \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} according to the specification
  given as \isa{eq}, which is then turned into a proven fact.  The
  given proposition may deviate from internal meta-level equality
  according to the rewrite rules declared as \hyperlink{attribute.defn}{\mbox{\isa{defn}}} by the
  object-logic.  This usually covers object-level equality \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharequal}\ y{\isachardoublequote}} and equivalence \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ {\isasymleftrightarrow}\ B{\isachardoublequote}}.  End-users normally need not
  change the \hyperlink{attribute.defn}{\mbox{\isa{defn}}} setup.
  
  Definitions may be presented with explicit arguments on the LHS, as
  well as additional conditions, e.g.\ \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\ y\ {\isacharequal}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} instead of
  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ {\isasymequiv}\ {\isasymlambda}x\ y{\isachardot}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}y\ {\isasymnoteq}\ {\isadigit{0}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ g\ x\ y\ {\isacharequal}\ u{\isachardoublequote}} instead of an
  unrestricted \isa{{\isachardoublequote}g\ {\isasymequiv}\ {\isasymlambda}x\ y{\isachardot}\ u{\isachardoublequote}}.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.abbreviation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{abbreviation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}}] introduces
  a syntactic constant which is associated with a certain term
  according to the meta-level equality \isa{eq}.
  
  Abbreviations participate in the usual type-inference process, but
  are expanded before the logic ever sees them.  Pretty printing of
  terms involves higher-order rewriting with rules stemming from
  reverted abbreviations.  This needs some care to avoid overlapping
  or looping syntactic replacements!
  
  The optional \isa{mode} specification restricts output to a
  particular print mode; using ``\isa{input}'' here achieves the
  effect of one-way abbreviations.  The mode may also include an
  ``\hyperlink{keyword.output}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{output}}}}'' qualifier that affects the concrete syntax
  declared for abbreviations, cf.\ \hyperlink{command.syntax}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{syntax}}}} in
  \secref{sec:syn-trans}.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.print-abbrevs}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}abbrevs}}}}] prints all constant abbreviations
  of the current context.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.notation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{notation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isacharparenleft}mx{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}] associates mixfix
  syntax with an existing constant or fixed variable.  This is a
  robust interface to the underlying \hyperlink{command.syntax}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{syntax}}}} primitive
  (\secref{sec:syn-trans}).  Type declaration and internal syntactic
  representation of the given entity is retrieved from the context.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.no-notation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{no{\isacharunderscore}notation}}}}] is similar to \hyperlink{command.notation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{notation}}}}, but removes the specified syntax annotation from the
  present context.

  All of these specifications support local theory targets (cf.\
  \secref{sec:target}).%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%
Arbitrary operations on the background context may be wrapped-up as
  generic declaration elements.  Since the underlying concept of local
  theories may be subject to later re-interpretation, there is an
  additional dependency on a morphism that tells the difference of the
  original declaration context wrt.\ the application context
  encountered later on.  A fact declaration is an important special
  case: it consists of a theorem which is applied to the context by
  means of an attribute.

  function \isa{d} of ML type \verb|declaration|, to the current
  local theory under construction.  In later application contexts, the
  function is transformed according to the morphisms being involved in
  the interpretation hierarchy.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.declare}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{declare}}}}~\isa{thms}] declares theorems to the
  current local theory context.  No theorem binding is involved here,
  unlike \hyperlink{command.theorems}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{theorems}}}} or \hyperlink{command.lemmas}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{lemmas}}}} (cf.\
  \secref{sec:axms-thms}), so \hyperlink{command.declare}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{declare}}}} only has the effect
  of applying attributes as included in the theorem specification.

}
\isamarkuptrue%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%
A local theory target is a context managed separately within the
  enclosing theory.  Contexts may introduce parameters (fixed
  variables) and assumptions (hypotheses).  Definitions and theorems
  depending on the context may be added incrementally later on.  Named
  contexts refer to locales (cf.\ \secref{sec:locale}) or type classes
  (cf.\ \secref{sec:class}); the name ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharminus}{\isachardoublequote}}'' signifies the
  global theory context.

  \begin{matharray}{rcll}
    \indexdef{}{command}{context}\hypertarget{command.context}{\hyperlink{command.context}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{context}}}}} & : & \isartrans{theory}{local{\dsh}theory} \\

  \end{matharray}

  \end{rail}

  \begin{descr}
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.context}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{context}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymBEGIN}{\isachardoublequote}}] recommences an
  existing locale or class context \isa{c}.  Note that locale and
  class definitions allow to include the \indexref{}{keyword}{begin}\hyperlink{keyword.begin}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{begin}}}}
  keyword as well, in order to continue the local theory immediately
  after the initial specification.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}}] concludes the current local theory and
  continues the enclosing global theory.  Note that a non-local
  \hyperlink{command.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} has a different meaning: it concludes the theory
  itself (\secref{sec:begin-thy}).
  
  \item [\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}] given after any local theory command
  specifies an immediate target, e.g.\ ``\hyperlink{command.definition}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{definition}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}'' or ``\hyperlink{command.theorem}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{theorem}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ c{\isacharparenright}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}''.  This works both in a local or
  global theory context; the current target context will be suspended
  for this command only.  Note that ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIN}\ {\isacharminus}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' will
  always produce a global result independently of the current target
  context.

  \end{descr}

  The exact meaning of results produced within a local theory context
  depends on the underlying target infrastructure (locale, type class
  etc.).  The general idea is as follows, considering a context named
  \isa{c} with parameter \isa{x} and assumption \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}}.
  
  Definitions are exported by introducing a global version with
  additional arguments; a syntactic abbreviation links the long form
  with the abstract version of the target context.  For example,
  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} becomes \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isachardot}a\ {\isacharquery}x\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} at the theory
  level (for arbitrary \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}x{\isachardoublequote}}), together with a local
  abbreviation \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isasymequiv}\ c{\isachardot}a\ x{\isachardoublequote}} in the target context (for the
  fixed parameter \isa{x}).

  Theorems are exported by discharging the assumptions and
  generalizing the parameters of the context.  For example, \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ B{\isacharbrackleft}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}} becomes \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isachardot}a{\isacharcolon}\ A{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ B{\isacharbrackleft}{\isacharquery}x{\isacharbrackright}{\isachardoublequote}}, again for arbitrary
  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}x{\isachardoublequote}}.%

  \item [\hyperlink{command.locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{locale}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}loc\ {\isacharequal}\ import\ {\isacharplus}\ body{\isachardoublequote}}] defines a
  new locale \isa{loc} as a context consisting of a certain view of
  existing locales (\isa{import}) plus some additional elements
  (\isa{body}).  Both \isa{import} and \isa{body} are optional;
  the degenerate form \hyperlink{command.locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{locale}}}}~\isa{loc} defines an empty
  locale, which may still be useful to collect declarations of facts
  later on.  Type-inference on locale expressions automatically takes
  care of the most general typing that the combined context elements
  may acquire.

  The \isa{import} consists of a structured context expression,
  consisting of references to existing locales, renamed contexts, or
  merged contexts.  Renaming uses positional notation: \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}} means that (a prefix of) the fixed
  parameters of context \isa{c} are named \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}; a ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'' (underscore) means to skip that
  position.  Renaming by default deletes concrete syntax, but new
  syntax may by specified with a mixfix annotation.  An exeption of
  this rule is the special syntax declared with ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymSTRUCTURE}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' (see below), which is neither deleted nor can it
  be changed.  Merging proceeds from left-to-right, suppressing any
  duplicates stemming from different paths through the import
  hierarchy.

  The \isa{body} consists of basic context elements, further context
  expressions may be included as well.

  \begin{descr}

  \item [\hyperlink{element.fixes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{fixes}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymtau}\ {\isacharparenleft}mx{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}] declares a local
  parameter of type \isa{{\isasymtau}} and mixfix annotation \isa{mx} (both
  are optional).  The special syntax declaration ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymSTRUCTURE}{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' means that \isa{x} may be referenced
  implicitly in this context.

  \item [\hyperlink{element.constrains}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{constrains}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymtau}{\isachardoublequote}}] introduces a type
  constraint \isa{{\isasymtau}} on the local parameter \isa{x}.

  \item [\hyperlink{element.assumes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{assumes}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}]
  introduces local premises, similar to \hyperlink{command.assume}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{assume}}}} within a
  proof (cf.\ \secref{sec:proof-context}).

  \item [\hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a{\isacharcolon}\ x\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}}] defines a previously
  declared parameter.  This is similar to \hyperlink{command.def}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{def}}}} within a
  proof (cf.\ \secref{sec:proof-context}), but \hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}
  takes an equational proposition instead of variable-term pair.  The
  left-hand side of the equation may have additional arguments, e.g.\
  ``\hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}f\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub n\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}}''.

  \item [\hyperlink{element.notes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{notes}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\ {\isacharequal}\ b\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ b\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}]
  reconsiders facts within a local context.  Most notably, this may
  include arbitrary declarations in any attribute specifications
  included here, e.g.\ a local \hyperlink{attribute.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}} rule.

  \item [\hyperlink{element.includes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{includes}}}}~\isa{c}] copies the specified context
  in a statically scoped manner.  Only available in the long goal
  format of \secref{sec:goals}.

  In contrast, the initial \isa{import} specification of a locale
  expression maintains a dynamic relation to the locales being
  referenced (benefiting from any later fact declarations in the
  obvious manner).

  \end{descr}
  
  Note that ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}{\isasymIS}\ p\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ p\isactrlsub n{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' patterns given
  in the syntax of \hyperlink{element.assumes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{assumes}}}} and \hyperlink{element.defines}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{defines}}}} above
  are illegal in locale definitions.  In the long goal format of
  \secref{sec:goals}, term bindings may be included as expected,
  though.
  
  \medskip By default, locale specifications are ``closed up'' by
  turning the given text into a predicate definition \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms} and deriving the original assumptions as local lemmas
  (modulo local definitions).  The predicate statement covers only the
  newly specified assumptions, omitting the content of included locale
  expressions.  The full cumulative view is only provided on export,
  involving another predicate \isa{loc} that refers to the complete
  specification text.
  
  In any case, the predicate arguments are those locale parameters
  that actually occur in the respective piece of text.  Also note that
  these predicates operate at the meta-level in theory, but the locale
  packages attempts to internalize statements according to the
  object-logic setup (e.g.\ replacing \isa{{\isasymAnd}} by \isa{{\isasymforall}}, and
  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}} by \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}} in HOL; see also
  \secref{sec:object-logic}).  Separate introduction rules \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms{\isachardot}intro} and \isa{loc{\isachardot}intro} are provided as well.
  
  The \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}open{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} option of a locale specification prevents both
  the current \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms} and cumulative \isa{loc} predicate
  constructions.  Predicates are also omitted for empty specification
  texts.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}import\ {\isacharplus}\ body{\isachardoublequote}}] prints the
  specified locale expression in a flattened form.  The notable
  special case \hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}~\isa{loc} just prints the
  contents of the named locale, but keep in mind that type-inference
  will normalize type variables according to the usual alphabetical
  order.  The command omits \hyperlink{element.notes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{notes}}}} elements by default.
  Use \hyperlink{command.print-locale}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locale}}}}\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbang}{\isachardoublequote}} to get them included.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.print-locales}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}}] prints the names of all locales
  of the current theory.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.intro-locales}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}locales}}} and \hyperlink{method.unfold-locales}{\mbox{\isa{unfold{\isacharunderscore}locales}}}]
  repeatedly expand all introduction rules of locale predicates of the
  theory.  While \hyperlink{method.intro-locales}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}locales}}} only applies the \isa{loc{\isachardot}intro} introduction rules and therefore does not decend to
  assumptions, \hyperlink{method.unfold-locales}{\mbox{\isa{unfold{\isacharunderscore}locales}}} is more aggressive and applies
  \isa{loc{\isacharunderscore}axioms{\isachardot}intro} as well.  Both methods are aware of locale
  specifications entailed by the context, both from target and
  \hyperlink{element.includes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{includes}}}} statements, and from interpretations (see
  below).  New goals that are entailed by the current context are
  discharged automatically.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}expr\ insts\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eqns{\isachardoublequote}}]

  The first form of \hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}} interprets \isa{expr} in the theory.  The instantiation is given as a list of terms
  \isa{insts} and is positional.  All parameters must receive an
  instantiation term --- with the exception of defined parameters.
  These are, if omitted, derived from the defining equation and other
  instantiations.  Use ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'' to omit an instantiation term.

  The command generates proof obligations for the instantiated
  specifications (assumes and defines elements).  Once these are
  discharged by the user, instantiated facts are added to the theory
  in a post-processing phase.

  Additional equations, which are unfolded in facts during
  post-processing, may be given after the keyword \hyperlink{keyword.where}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{where}}}}.
  This is useful for interpreting concepts introduced through
  definition specification elements.  The equations must be proved.
  Note that if equations are present, the context expression is
  restricted to a locale name.

  The command is aware of interpretations already active in the
  theory.  No proof obligations are generated for those, neither is
  post-processing applied to their facts.  This avoids duplication of
  interpreted facts, in particular.  Note that, in the case of a
  locale with import, parts of the interpretation may already be
  active.  The command will only generate proof obligations and
  process facts for new parts.

  The context expression may be preceded by a name and/or attributes.
  These take effect in the post-processing of facts.  The name is used
  to prefix fact names, for example to avoid accidental hiding of
  other facts.  Attributes are applied after attributes of the
  interpreted facts.

  Adding facts to locales has the effect of adding interpreted facts
  to the theory for all active interpretations also.  That is,
  interpretations dynamically participate in any facts added to
  locales.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.interpretation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpretation}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}name\ {\isasymsubseteq}\ expr{\isachardoublequote}}]

  This form of the command interprets \isa{expr} in the locale
  \isa{name}.  It requires a proof that the specification of \isa{name} implies the specification of \isa{expr}.  As in the
  localized version of the theorem command, the proof is in the
  context of \isa{name}.  After the proof obligation has been
  dischared, the facts of \isa{expr} become part of locale \isa{name} as \emph{derived} context elements and are available when the
  context \isa{name} is subsequently entered.  Note that, like
  import, this is dynamic: facts added to a locale part of \isa{expr} after interpretation become also available in \isa{name}.
  Like facts of renamed context elements, facts obtained by
  interpretation may be accessed by prefixing with the parameter
  renaming (where the parameters are separated by ``\isa{{\isacharunderscore}}'').

  Unlike interpretation in theories, instantiation is confined to the
  renaming of parameters, which may be specified as part of the
  context expression \isa{expr}.  Using defined parameters in \isa{name} one may achieve an effect similar to instantiation, though.

  Only specification fragments of \isa{expr} that are not already
  part of \isa{name} (be it imported, derived or a derived fragment
  of the import) are considered by interpretation.  This enables
  circular interpretations.

  If interpretations of \isa{name} exist in the current theory, the
  command adds interpretations for \isa{expr} as well, with the same
  prefix and attributes, although only for fragments of \isa{expr}
  that are not interpreted in the theory already.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.interpret}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{interpret}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}expr\ insts\ {\isasymWHERE}\ eqns{\isachardoublequote}}]
  interprets \isa{expr} in the proof context and is otherwise
  similar to interpretation in theories.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.print-interps}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}interps}}}}~\isa{loc}] prints the
  interpretations of a particular locale \isa{loc} that are active
  in the current context, either theory or proof context.  The
  exclamation point argument triggers printing of \emph{witness}
  theorems justifying interpretations.  These are normally omitted
  from the output.
  
  \end{descr}

  \begin{warn}
    Since attributes are applied to interpreted theorems,
    interpretation may modify the context of common proof tools, e.g.\
    the Simplifier or Classical Reasoner.  Since the behavior of such
    automated reasoning tools is \emph{not} stable under
    interpretation morphisms, manual declarations might have to be
    issued.
  \end{warn}

  \begin{warn}
    An interpretation in a theory may subsume previous
    interpretations.  This happens if the same specification fragment
    is interpreted twice and the instantiation of the second
    interpretation is more general than the interpretation of the
    first.  A warning is issued, since it is likely that these could
    have been generalized in the first place.  The locale package does
    not attempt to remove subsumed interpretations.

A class is a particular locale with \emph{exactly one} type variable
  \isa{{\isasymalpha}}.  Beyond the underlying locale, a corresponding type class
  is established which is interpreted logically as axiomatic type
  class \cite{Wenzel:1997:TPHOL} whose logical content are the
  assumptions of the locale.  Thus, classes provide the full
  generality of locales combined with the commodity of type classes
  (notably type-inference).  See \cite{isabelle-classes} for a short

  Any \hyperlink{element.fixes}{\mbox{\isa{\isakeyword{fixes}}}} in \isa{body} are lifted to the global

A plain \hyperlink{command.instance}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{instance}}}} command

  target is concluded by an \indexref{}{command}{end}\hyperlink{command.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}} command.

  this corresponds nicely to mutual recursive type definitions, e.g.\

The proof would usually proceed by \hyperlink{method.intro-classes}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}classes}}}, and then establish the characteristic theorems of
  the type classes involved.  After finishing the proof, the
  background theory will be augmented by the proven type arities.

  \item [\hyperlink{command.subclass}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{subclass}}}}~\isa{c}] in a class context for class
  \isa{d} sets up a goal stating that class \isa{c} is logically

  \item [\hyperlink{method.intro-classes}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}classes}}}] repeatedly expands all class
  introduction rules of this theory.  Note that this method usually
  needs not be named explicitly, as it is already included in the
  default proof step (e.g.\ of \hyperlink{command.proof}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{proof}}}}).  In particular,
  instantiation of trivial (syntactic) classes may be performed by a

  Axiomatic type classes are Isabelle/Pure's primitive

  existing classes, with additional axioms holding.  Class axioms may
  not contain more than one type variable.  The class axioms (with
  implicit sort constraints added) are bound to the given names.
  Furthermore a class introduction rule is generated (being bound as
  \isa{c{\isacharunderscore}class{\isachardot}intro}); this rule is employed by method \hyperlink{method.intro-classes}{\mbox{\isa{intro{\isacharunderscore}classes}}} to support instantiation proofs of this class.
  
  The ``class axioms'' are stored as theorems according to the given
  name specifications, adding \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isacharunderscore}class{\isachardoublequote}} as name space prefix;
  the same facts are also stored collectively as \isa{c{\isacharunderscore}class{\isachardot}axioms}.

\begin{isamarkuptext}%
Isabelle/Pure's definitional schemes support certain forms of
  overloading (see \secref{sec:consts}).  At most occassions
  overloading will be used in a Haskell-like fashion together with
  type classes by means of \hyperlink{command.instantiation}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{instantiation}}}} (see
  \secref{sec:class}).  Sometimes low-level overloading is desirable.
  The \hyperlink{command.overloading}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{overloading}}}} target provides a convenient view for

  specify constants with overloaded definitions.  These are identified

  instances.  The definitions themselves are established using common
  specification tools, using the names \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}} as
  reference to the corresponding constants.  The target is concluded
  by \hyperlink{command.end}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{end}}}}.

  A \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}unchecked{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} option disables global dependency checks for
  the corresponding definition, which is occasionally useful for
  exotic overloading.  It is at the discretion of the user to avoid

Isabelle/Pure maintains a record of named configuration options
  within the theory or proof context, with values of type \verb|bool|, \verb|int|, or \verb|string|.  Tools may declare
  options in ML, and then refer to these values (relative to the
  context).  Thus global reference variables are easily avoided.  The
  user may change the value of a configuration option by means of an
  associated attribute of the same name.  This form of context
  declaration works particularly well with commands such as \hyperlink{command.declare}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{declare}}}} or \hyperlink{command.using}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{using}}}}.

  For historical reasons, some tools cannot take the full proof

  Tags may be any list of string pairs that serve as formal comment.
  The first string is considered the tag name, the second its

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.THEN}{\mbox{\isa{THEN}}}~\isa{a} and \hyperlink{attribute.COMP}{\mbox{\isa{COMP}}}~\isa{a}]
  compose rules by resolution.  \hyperlink{attribute.THEN}{\mbox{\isa{THEN}}} resolves with the
  first premise of \isa{a} (an alternative position may be also
  specified); the \hyperlink{attribute.COMP}{\mbox{\isa{COMP}}} version skips the automatic

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.Pure.elim-format}{\mbox{\isa{Pure{\isachardot}elim{\isacharunderscore}format}}}] turns a destruction rule into

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.standard}{\mbox{\isa{standard}}}] puts a theorem into the standard form

  operation violates the local proof context (including active
  locales).

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.no-vars}{\mbox{\isa{no{\isacharunderscore}vars}}}] replaces schematic variables by free

}
\isamarkuptrue%
%
\begin{isamarkuptext}%
The following improper proof methods emulate traditional tactics.
  These admit direct access to the goal state, which is normally
  considered harmful!  In particular, this may involve both numbered
  goal addressing (default 1), and dynamic instantiation within the
  scope of some subgoal.

  \begin{warn}
    Dynamic instantiations refer to universally quantified parameters
    of a subgoal (the dynamic context) rather than fixed variables and
    term abbreviations of a (static) Isar context.
  \end{warn}

  Tactic emulation methods, unlike their ML counterparts, admit
  simultaneous instantiation from both dynamic and static contexts.
  If names occur in both contexts goal parameters hide locally fixed
  variables.  Likewise, schematic variables refer to term
  abbreviations, if present in the static context.  Otherwise the
  schematic variable is interpreted as a schematic variable and left
  to be solved by unification with certain parts of the subgoal.

  Note that the tactic emulation proof methods in Isabelle/Isar are
  consistently named \isa{foo{\isacharunderscore}tac}.  Note also that variable names
  occurring on left hand sides of instantiations must be preceded by a
  question mark if they coincide with a keyword or contain dots.  This
  is consistent with the attribute \hyperlink{attribute.where}{\mbox{\isa{where}}} (see
  \secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).

  \item [\hyperlink{method.rule-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isacharunderscore}tac}}} etc.] do resolution of rules with explicit
  instantiation.  This works the same way as the ML tactics \verb|res_inst_tac| etc. (see \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}).

  Multiple rules may be only given if there is no instantiation; then
  \hyperlink{method.rule-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isacharunderscore}tac}}} is the same as \verb|resolve_tac| in ML (see
  \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}).

  \item [\hyperlink{method.cut-tac}{\mbox{\isa{cut{\isacharunderscore}tac}}}] inserts facts into the proof state as
  assumption of a subgoal, see also \verb|cut_facts_tac| in
  \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}.  Note that the scope of schematic
  variables is spread over the main goal statement.  Instantiations
  may be given as well, see also ML tactic \verb|cut_inst_tac| in
  \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.thin-tac}{\mbox{\isa{thin{\isacharunderscore}tac}}}~\isa{{\isasymphi}}] deletes the specified
  assumption from a subgoal; note that \isa{{\isasymphi}} may contain schematic
  variables.  See also \verb|thin_tac| in \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.subgoal-tac}{\mbox{\isa{subgoal{\isacharunderscore}tac}}}~\isa{{\isasymphi}}] adds \isa{{\isasymphi}} as an
  assumption to a subgoal.  See also \verb|subgoal_tac| and \verb|subgoals_tac| in \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.rename-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rename{\isacharunderscore}tac}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}] renames
  parameters of a goal according to the list \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}, which refers to the \emph{suffix} of variables.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.rotate-tac}{\mbox{\isa{rotate{\isacharunderscore}tac}}}~\isa{n}] rotates the assumptions of a
  goal by \isa{n} positions: from right to left if \isa{n} is
  positive, and from left to right if \isa{n} is negative; the
  default value is 1.  See also \verb|rotate_tac| in
  \cite[\S3]{isabelle-ref}.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.tactic}{\mbox{\isa{tactic}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}text{\isachardoublequote}}] produces a proof method from
  any ML text of type \verb|tactic|.  Apart from the usual ML
  environment and the current implicit theory context, the ML code may
  refer to the following locally bound values:

%FIXME check
{\footnotesize\begin{verbatim}
val ctxt  : Proof.context
val facts : thm list
val thm   : string -> thm
val thms  : string -> thm list
\end{verbatim}}

  Here \verb|ctxt| refers to the current proof context, \verb|facts| indicates any current facts for forward-chaining, and \verb|thm|~/~\verb|thms| retrieve named facts (including global theorems)
  from the context.

  \begin{descr}

  \item [\hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}}] invokes the Simplifier, after declaring
  additional rules according to the arguments given.  Note that the
  \railtterm{only} modifier first removes all other rewrite rules,
  congruences, and looper tactics (including splits), and then behaves
  like \railtterm{add}.

  \medskip The \railtterm{cong} modifiers add or delete Simplifier
  congruence rules (see also \cite{isabelle-ref}), the default is to
  add.

  \medskip The \railtterm{split} modifiers add or delete rules for the
  Splitter (see also \cite{isabelle-ref}), the default is to add.
  This works only if the Simplifier method has been properly setup to
  include the Splitter (all major object logics such HOL, HOLCF, FOL,
  ZF do this already).

  \item [\hyperlink{method.simp-all}{\mbox{\isa{simp{\isacharunderscore}all}}}] is similar to \hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}}, but acts on
  all goals (backwards from the last to the first one).

  \end{descr}

  By default the Simplifier methods take local assumptions fully into
  account, using equational assumptions in the subsequent
  normalization process, or simplifying assumptions themselves (cf.\
  \verb|asm_full_simp_tac| in \cite[\S10]{isabelle-ref}).  In
  structured proofs this is usually quite well behaved in practice:
  just the local premises of the actual goal are involved, additional
  facts may be inserted via explicit forward-chaining (via \hyperlink{command.then}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{then}}}}, \hyperlink{command.from}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{from}}}}, \hyperlink{command.using}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{using}}}} etc.).  The full
  context of premises is only included if the ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbang}{\isachardoublequote}}'' (bang)
  argument is given, which should be used with some care, though.

  Additional Simplifier options may be specified to tune the behavior
  further (mostly for unstructured scripts with many accidental local
  facts): ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}no{\isacharunderscore}asm{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' means assumptions are ignored
  completely (cf.\ \verb|simp_tac|), ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}no{\isacharunderscore}asm{\isacharunderscore}simp{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' means
  assumptions are used in the simplification of the conclusion but are
  not themselves simplified (cf.\ \verb|asm_simp_tac|), and ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}no{\isacharunderscore}asm{\isacharunderscore}use{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' means assumptions are simplified but are not used
  in the simplification of each other or the conclusion (cf.\ \verb|full_simp_tac|).  For compatibility reasons, there is also an option
  ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}asm{\isacharunderscore}lr{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'', which means that an assumption is only used
  for simplifying assumptions which are to the right of it (cf.\ \verb|asm_lr_simp_tac|).

  Giving an option ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}depth{\isacharunderscore}limit{\isacharcolon}\ n{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' limits the number of
  recursive invocations of the simplifier during conditional
  rewriting.

  \medskip The Splitter package is usually configured to work as part
  of the Simplifier.  The effect of repeatedly applying \verb|split_tac| can be simulated by ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}simp\ only{\isacharcolon}\ split{\isacharcolon}\ a\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ a\isactrlsub n{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}''.  There is also a separate \isa{split}
  method available for single-step case splitting.%

  provide the canonical way for automated normalization (see
  \secref{sec:simplifier}).

  \begin{descr}

  \item [\hyperlink{method.subst}{\mbox{\isa{subst}}}~\isa{eq}] performs a single substitution
  step using rule \isa{eq}, which may be either a meta or object
  equality.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.subst}{\mbox{\isa{subst}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}asm{\isacharparenright}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}}] substitutes in an

  \item [\hyperlink{method.subst}{\mbox{\isa{subst}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}i\ {\isasymdots}\ j{\isacharparenright}\ eq{\isachardoublequote}}] performs several
  substitutions in the conclusion. The numbers \isa{i} to \isa{j}
  indicate the positions to substitute at.  Positions are ordered from
  the top of the term tree moving down from left to right. For
  example, in \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}a\ {\isacharplus}\ b{\isacharparenright}\ {\isacharplus}\ {\isacharparenleft}c\ {\isacharplus}\ d{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} there are three positions

  whole term, 2 to \isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\ {\isacharplus}\ b{\isachardoublequote}} and 3 to \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isacharplus}\ d{\isachardoublequote}}.

  If the positions in the list \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}i\ {\isasymdots}\ j{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} are non-overlapping

  the behaviour of \isa{subst} is not specified.

  substitutions in the assumptions.  Positions \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ i\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isachardoublequote}}
  refer to assumption 1, positions \isa{{\isachardoublequote}i\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isacharplus}\ {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ i\isactrlsub {\isadigit{2}}{\isachardoublequote}}
  to assumption 2, and so on.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.hypsubst}{\mbox{\isa{hypsubst}}}] performs substitution using some
  assumption; this only works for equations of the form \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isacharequal}\ t{\isachardoublequote}} where \isa{x} is a free or bound variable.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.split}{\mbox{\isa{split}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}a\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ a\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}] performs
  single-step case splitting using the given rules.  By default,
  splitting is performed in the conclusion of a goal; the \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}asm{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} option indicates to operate on assumptions instead.
  
  Note that the \hyperlink{method.simp}{\mbox{\isa{simp}}} method already involves repeated
  application of split rules as declared in the current context.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}}] as offered by the Classical Reasoner is a
  refinement over the primitive one (see \secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).
  Both versions essentially work the same, but the classical version
  observes the classical rule context in addition to that of
  Isabelle/Pure.

  Common object logics (HOL, ZF, etc.) declare a rich collection of
  classical rules (even if these would qualify as intuitionistic
  ones), but only few declarations to the rule context of
  Isabelle/Pure (\secref{sec:pure-meth-att}).

  \item [\hyperlink{method.contradiction}{\mbox{\isa{contradiction}}}] solves some goal by contradiction,
  deriving any result from both \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymnot}\ A{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{A}.  Chained
  facts, which are guaranteed to participate, may appear in either
  order.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.intro}{\mbox{\isa{intro}}} and \hyperlink{method.elim}{\mbox{\isa{elim}}}] repeatedly refine some
  goal by intro- or elim-resolution, after having inserted any chained
  facts.  Exactly the rules given as arguments are taken into account;
  this allows fine-tuned decomposition of a proof problem, in contrast
  to common automated tools.

  (i.e.\ not applied blindly without backtracking), while ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharbang}{\isachardoublequote}}'' classifies as \emph{safe}.  Rule declarations marked by
  ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}{\isachardoublequote}}'' coincide with those of Isabelle/Pure, cf.\
  \secref{sec:pure-meth-att} (i.e.\ are only applied in single steps
  of the \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} method).  The optional natural number
  specifies an explicit weight argument, which is ignored by automated
  tools, but determines the search order of single rule steps.

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}}~\isa{del}] deletes introduction,
  elimination, or destruction rules from the context.

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.iff}{\mbox{\isa{iff}}}] declares logical equivalences to the
  Simplifier and the Classical reasoner at the same time.
  Non-conditional rules result in a ``safe'' introduction and
  elimination pair; conditional ones are considered ``unsafe''.  Rules
  with negative conclusion are automatically inverted (using \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymnot}{\isachardoublequote}}-elimination internally).

  The ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharquery}{\isachardoublequote}}'' version of \hyperlink{attribute.iff}{\mbox{\isa{iff}}} declares rules to
  the Isabelle/Pure context only, and omits the Simplifier
  declaration.

  \end{matharray}

  The puristic way to build up Isar proof contexts is by explicit
  language elements like \hyperlink{command.fix}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{fix}}}}, \hyperlink{command.assume}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{assume}}}},
  \hyperlink{command.let}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{let}}}} (see \secref{sec:proof-context}).  This is adequate
  for plain natural deduction, but easily becomes unwieldy in concrete
  verification tasks, which typically involve big induction rules with
  several cases.

  The \hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}} command provides a shorthand to refer to a
  local context symbolically: certain proof methods provide an
  environment of named ``cases'' of the form \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isacharcolon}\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}; the effect of ``\hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}}~\isa{c}'' is then equivalent to ``\hyperlink{command.fix}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{fix}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}}~\hyperlink{command.assume}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{assume}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}''.  Term bindings may be covered as well, notably
  \hyperlink{variable.?case}{\mbox{\isa{{\isacharquery}case}}} for the main conclusion.

  By default, the ``terminology'' \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}} of
  a case value is marked as hidden, i.e.\ there is no way to refer to
  such parameters in the subsequent proof text.  After all, original
  rule parameters stem from somewhere outside of the current proof
  text.  By using the explicit form ``\hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}c\ y\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ y\isactrlsub m{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' instead, the proof author is able to
  chose local names that fit nicely into the current context.

  \medskip It is important to note that proper use of \hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}} does not provide means to peek at the current goal state,
  which is not directly observable in Isar!  Nonetheless, goal
  refinement commands do provide named cases \isa{{\isachardoublequote}goal\isactrlsub i{\isachardoublequote}}
  for each subgoal \isa{{\isachardoublequote}i\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ n{\isachardoublequote}} of the resulting goal state.
  Using this extra feature requires great care, because some bits of
  the internal tactical machinery intrude the proof text.  In
  particular, parameter names stemming from the left-over of automated
  reasoning tools are usually quite unpredictable.

  Under normal circumstances, the text of cases emerge from standard
  elimination or induction rules, which in turn are derived from
  previous theory specifications in a canonical way (say from
  \hyperlink{command.inductive}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{inductive}}}} definitions).

  \medskip Proper cases are only available if both the proof method
  and the rules involved support this.  By using appropriate
  attributes, case names, conclusions, and parameters may be also
  declared by hand.  Thus variant versions of rules that have been
  derived manually become ready to use in advanced case analysis
  later.

  proof method (such as \indexref{}{method}{cases}\hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} and \indexref{}{method}{induct}\hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}}).
  The command ``\hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}c\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' abbreviates ``\hyperlink{command.fix}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{fix}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}}~\hyperlink{command.assume}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{assume}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}''.

  declares names for the local contexts of premises of a theorem;
  \isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ c\isactrlsub k{\isachardoublequote}} refers to the \emph{suffix} of the

  \isa{c}; here \isa{{\isachardoublequote}d\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ d\isactrlsub k{\isachardoublequote}} refers to the
  prefix of arguments of a logical formula built by nesting a binary
  connective (e.g.\ \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymor}{\isachardoublequote}}).
  
  Note that proof methods such as \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}} and \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} already provide a default name for the conclusion as a
  whole.  The need to name subformulas only arises with cases that
  split into several sub-cases, as in common co-induction rules.

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.params}{\mbox{\isa{params}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}p\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ p\isactrlsub m\ {\isasymAND}\ {\isasymdots}\ q\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ q\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}] renames the innermost parameters of
  premises \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ n{\isachardoublequote}} of some theorem.  An empty list of names
  may be given to skip positions, leaving the present parameters
  unchanged.
  
  Note that the default usage of case rules does \emph{not} directly
  expose parameters to the proof context.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}}~\isa{n}] declares the number of
  ``major premises'' of a rule, i.e.\ the number of facts to be
  consumed when it is applied by an appropriate proof method.  The
  default value of \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}} is \isa{{\isachardoublequote}n\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isadigit{1}}{\isachardoublequote}}, which is
  appropriate for the usual kind of cases and induction rules for
  inductive sets (cf.\ \secref{sec:hol-inductive}).  Rules without any
  \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}} declaration given are treated as if
  \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}}~\isa{{\isadigit{0}}} had been specified.
  
  Note that explicit \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}} declarations are only
  rarely needed; this is already taken care of automatically by the
  higher-level \hyperlink{attribute.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}}, \hyperlink{attribute.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}}, and
  \hyperlink{attribute.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} declarations.

  The \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}}, \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}}, and \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}}
  methods provide a uniform interface to common proof techniques over
  datatypes, inductive predicates (or sets), recursive functions etc.
  The corresponding rules may be specified and instantiated in a

  contexts that may be invoked via the \hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}} proof command
  within the subsequent proof text.  This accommodates compact proof
  texts even when reasoning about large specifications.

  The \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}} method also provides some additional
  infrastructure in order to be applicable to structure statements
  (either using explicit meta-level connectives, or including facts
  and parameters separately).  This avoids cumbersome encoding of

  \item [\hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}insts\ R{\isachardoublequote}}] applies method \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} with an appropriate case distinction theorem, instantiated to
  the subjects \isa{insts}.  Symbolic case names are bound according
  to the rule's local contexts.

  The rule is determined as follows, according to the facts and
  arguments passed to the \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} method:

  \medskip
  \begin{tabular}{llll}
    facts           &                 & arguments   & rule \\\hline
                    & \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} &             & classical case split \\
                    & \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} & \isa{t}   & datatype exhaustion (type of \isa{t}) \\
    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymturnstile}\ A\ t{\isachardoublequote}} & \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} & \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}} & inductive predicate/set elimination (of \isa{A}) \\

  \end{tabular}
  \medskip

  Several instantiations may be given, referring to the \emph{suffix}
  of premises of the case rule; within each premise, the \emph{prefix}
  of variables is instantiated.  In most situations, only a single
  term needs to be specified; this refers to the first variable of the
  last premise (it is usually the same for all cases).

  \item [\hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}insts\ R{\isachardoublequote}}] is analogous to the
  \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}} method, but refers to induction rules, which are
  determined as follows:

  \medskip

  Several instantiations may be given, each referring to some part of
  a mutual inductive definition or datatype --- only related partial
  induction rules may be used together, though.  Any of the lists of
  terms \isa{{\isachardoublequote}P{\isacharcomma}\ x{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}} refers to the \emph{suffix} of variables
  present in the induction rule.  This enables the writer to specify
  only induction variables, or both predicates and variables, for
  example.
  
  Instantiations may be definitional: equations \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\ {\isasymequiv}\ t{\isachardoublequote}}
  introduce local definitions, which are inserted into the claim and
  discharged after applying the induction rule.  Equalities reappear
  in the inductive cases, but have been transformed according to the
  induction principle being involved here.  In order to achieve
  practically useful induction hypotheses, some variables occurring in
  \isa{t} need to be fixed (see below).
  
  The optional ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}arbitrary{\isacharcolon}\ x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}}''
  specification generalizes variables \isa{{\isachardoublequote}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardoublequote}} of the original goal before applying induction.  Thus
  induction hypotheses may become sufficiently general to get the
  proof through.  Together with definitional instantiations, one may
  effectively perform induction over expressions of a certain
  structure.
  
  The optional ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}taking{\isacharcolon}\ t\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ t\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}''
  specification provides additional instantiations of a prefix of
  pending variables in the rule.  Such schematic induction rules
  rarely occur in practice, though.

  \item [\hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}inst\ R{\isachardoublequote}}] is analogous to the
  \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}} method, but refers to coinduction rules, which are
  determined as follows:

  \medskip
  \begin{tabular}{llll}
    goal          &                    & arguments & rule \\\hline
                  & \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} & \isa{x} & type coinduction (type of \isa{x}) \\
    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ x{\isachardoublequote}} & \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} & \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}} & predicate/set coinduction (of \isa{A}) \\
    \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}   & \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} & \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymdots}\ rule{\isacharcolon}\ R{\isachardoublequote}} & explicit rule \isa{R} \\
  \end{tabular}
  
  Coinduction is the dual of induction.  Induction essentially
  eliminates \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ x{\isachardoublequote}} towards a generic result \isa{{\isachardoublequote}P\ x{\isachardoublequote}},
  while coinduction introduces \isa{{\isachardoublequote}A\ x{\isachardoublequote}} starting with \isa{{\isachardoublequote}B\ x{\isachardoublequote}}, for a suitable ``bisimulation'' \isa{B}.  The cases of a
  coinduct rule are typically named after the predicates or sets being
  covered, while the conclusions consist of several alternatives being
  named after the individual destructor patterns.
  
  The given instantiation refers to the \emph{suffix} of variables
  occurring in the rule's major premise, or conclusion if unavailable.
  An additional ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}taking{\isacharcolon}\ t\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ t\isactrlsub n{\isachardoublequote}}''
  specification may be required in order to specify the bisimulation
  to be used in the coinduction step.

  \end{descr}

  Above methods produce named local contexts, as determined by the
  instantiated rule as given in the text.  Beyond that, the \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}} and \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} methods guess further instantiations
  from the goal specification itself.  Any persisting unresolved
  schematic variables of the resulting rule will render the the
  corresponding case invalid.  The term binding \hyperlink{variable.?case}{\mbox{\isa{{\isacharquery}case}}} for
  the conclusion will be provided with each case, provided that term
  is fully specified.

  The \hyperlink{command.print-cases}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}cases}}}} command prints all named cases present
  in the current proof state.

  \medskip Despite the additional infrastructure, both \hyperlink{method.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}}
  and \hyperlink{method.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}} merely apply a certain rule, after
  instantiation, while conforming due to the usual way of monotonic
  natural deduction: the context of a structured statement \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}x\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ x\isactrlsub m{\isachardot}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymphi}\isactrlsub n\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ {\isasymdots}{\isachardoublequote}}
  reappears unchanged after the case split.

  The \hyperlink{method.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}} method is fundamentally different in this
  respect: the meta-level structure is passed through the
  ``recursive'' course involved in the induction.  Thus the original
  statement is basically replaced by separate copies, corresponding to
  the induction hypotheses and conclusion; the original goal context
  is no longer available.  Thus local assumptions, fixed parameters
  and definitions effectively participate in the inductive rephrasing
  of the original statement.

  In induction proofs, local assumptions introduced by cases are split
  into two different kinds: \isa{hyps} stemming from the rule and
  \isa{prems} from the goal statement.  This is reflected in the
  extracted cases accordingly, so invoking ``\hyperlink{command.case}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{case}}}}~\isa{c}'' will provide separate facts \isa{c{\isachardot}hyps} and \isa{c{\isachardot}prems},
  as well as fact \isa{c} to hold the all-inclusive list.

  \medskip Facts presented to either method are consumed according to
  the number of ``major premises'' of the rule involved, which is
  usually 0 for plain cases and induction rules of datatypes etc.\ and
  1 for rules of inductive predicates or sets and the like.  The
  remaining facts are inserted into the goal verbatim before the
  actual \isa{cases}, \isa{induct}, or \isa{coinduct} rule is
  applied.%

  \item [\hyperlink{command.print-induct-rules}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}induct{\isacharunderscore}rules}}}}] prints cases and induct
  rules for predicates (or sets) and types of the current context.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.cases}{\mbox{\isa{cases}}}, \hyperlink{attribute.induct}{\mbox{\isa{induct}}}, and \hyperlink{attribute.coinduct}{\mbox{\isa{coinduct}}}] (as attributes) augment the corresponding context of
  rules for reasoning about (co)inductive predicates (or sets) and
  types, using the corresponding methods of the same name.  Certain
  definitional packages of object-logics usually declare emerging
  cases and induction rules as expected, so users rarely need to
  intervene.
  
  Manual rule declarations usually refer to the \hyperlink{attribute.case-names}{\mbox{\isa{case{\isacharunderscore}names}}} and \hyperlink{attribute.params}{\mbox{\isa{params}}} attributes to adjust names of
  cases and parameters of a rule; the \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}}
  declaration is taken care of automatically: \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}}~\isa{{\isadigit{0}}} is specified for ``type'' rules and \hyperlink{attribute.consumes}{\mbox{\isa{consumes}}}~\isa{{\isadigit{1}}} for ``predicate'' / ``set'' rules.

  The very starting point for any Isabelle object-logic is a ``truth
  judgment'' that links object-level statements to the meta-logic
  (with its minimal language of \isa{prop} that covers universal
  quantification \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}{\isachardoublequote}} and implication \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}}).

  Common object-logics are sufficiently expressive to internalize rule
  statements over \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}} within their own
  language.  This is useful in certain situations where a rule needs
  to be viewed as an atomic statement from the meta-level perspective,
  e.g.\ \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}x{\isachardot}\ x\ {\isasymin}\ A\ {\isasymLongrightarrow}\ P\ x{\isachardoublequote}} versus \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymforall}x\ {\isasymin}\ A{\isachardot}\ P\ x{\isachardoublequote}}.

  From the following language elements, only the \hyperlink{method.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}}
  method and \hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isacharunderscore}format}}} attribute are occasionally
  required by end-users, the rest is for those who need to setup their
  own object-logic.  In the latter case existing formulations of
  Isabelle/FOL or Isabelle/HOL may be taken as realistic examples.

  Generic tools may refer to the information provided by object-logic
  declarations internally.

  \begin{rail}
    'judgment' constdecl
    ;
    'atomize' ('(' 'full' ')')?
    ;
    'rule\_format' ('(' 'noasm' ')')?
    ;

  \begin{descr}
  
  \item [\hyperlink{command.judgment}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{judgment}}}}~\isa{{\isachardoublequote}c\ {\isacharcolon}{\isacharcolon}\ {\isasymsigma}\ {\isacharparenleft}mx{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}] declares
  constant \isa{c} as the truth judgment of the current
  object-logic.  Its type \isa{{\isasymsigma}} should specify a coercion of the
  category of object-level propositions to \isa{prop} of the Pure
  meta-logic; the mixfix annotation \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}mx{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}} would typically
  just link the object language (internally of syntactic category
  \isa{logic}) with that of \isa{prop}.  Only one \hyperlink{command.judgment}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{judgment}}}} declaration may be given in any theory development.
  
  \item [\hyperlink{method.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} (as a method)] rewrites any non-atomic
  premises of a sub-goal, using the meta-level equations declared via
  \hyperlink{attribute.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} (as an attribute) beforehand.  As a result,
  heavily nested goals become amenable to fundamental operations such
  as resolution (cf.\ the \hyperlink{method.rule}{\mbox{\isa{rule}}} method).  Giving the ``\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}full{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}'' option here means to turn the whole subgoal into an
  object-statement (if possible), including the outermost parameters
  and assumptions as well.

  A typical collection of \hyperlink{attribute.atomize}{\mbox{\isa{atomize}}} rules for a particular
  object-logic would provide an internalization for each of the
  connectives of \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}{\isachardoublequote}}, \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}}, and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymequiv}{\isachardoublequote}}.
  Meta-level conjunction should be covered as well (this is
  particularly important for locales, see \secref{sec:locale}).

  \item [\hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isacharunderscore}format}}}] rewrites a theorem by the
  equalities declared as \hyperlink{attribute.rulify}{\mbox{\isa{rulify}}} rules in the current
  object-logic.  By default, the result is fully normalized, including
  assumptions and conclusions at any depth.  The \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isacharparenleft}no{\isacharunderscore}asm{\isacharparenright}{\isachardoublequote}}
  option restricts the transformation to the conclusion of a rule.

  In common object-logics (HOL, FOL, ZF), the effect of \hyperlink{attribute.rule-format}{\mbox{\isa{rule{\isacharunderscore}format}}} is to replace (bounded) universal quantification
  (\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymforall}{\isachardoublequote}}) and implication (\isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymlongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}}) by the corresponding
  rule statements over \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymAnd}{\isachardoublequote}} and \isa{{\isachardoublequote}{\isasymLongrightarrow}{\isachardoublequote}}.
