The 2013 edition of Isabelle introduced a new definitional package for freely
generated datatypes and codatatypes. The datatype support is similar to that
provided by the earlier package due to Berghofer and Wenzel
\cite{Berghofer-Wenzel:1999:TPHOL}, documented in the Isar reference manual
\cite{isabelle-isar-ref}; indeed, replacing the keyword @{command datatype} by
@{command datatype_new} is usually all that is needed to port existing theories
to use the new package.
Perhaps the main advantage of the new package is that it supports recursion
through a large class of non-datatypes, comprising finite sets:
*}
datatype_new 'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>s = Node\<^sub>f\<^sub>s 'a "'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>s fset"
text {*
\noindent
Another strong point is the support for local definitions:
*}
context linorder
begin
datatype_new flag = Less | Eq | Greater
end
text {*
\noindent
The package also provides some convenience, notably automatically generated
destructors (discriminators and selectors).
In addition to plain inductive datatypes, the new package supports coinductive
datatypes, or \emph{codatatypes}, which may have infinite values. For example,
the following command introduces the type of lazy lists, which comprises both
finite and infinite values:
*}
codatatype 'a llist (*<*)(map: lmap) (*>*)= LNil | LCons 'a "'a llist"
text {*
\noindent
Mixed inductive--coinductive recursion is possible via nesting. Compare the
following four Rose tree examples:
*}
(*<*)
locale dummy_tree
begin
(*>*)
datatype_new 'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>f = Node\<^sub>f\<^sub>f 'a "'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>f list"
datatype_new 'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>i = Node\<^sub>f\<^sub>i 'a "'a tree\<^sub>f\<^sub>i llist"
codatatype 'a tree\<^sub>i\<^sub>f = Node\<^sub>i\<^sub>f 'a "'a tree\<^sub>i\<^sub>f list"
codatatype 'a tree\<^sub>i\<^sub>i = Node\<^sub>i\<^sub>i 'a "'a tree\<^sub>i\<^sub>i llist"
(*<*)
end
(*>*)
text {*
The first two tree types allow only finite branches, whereas the last two allow
branches of infinite length. Orthogonally, the nodes in the first and third
types have finite branching, whereas those of the second and fourth may have
infinitely many direct subtrees.
To use the package, it is necessary to import the @{theory BNF} theory, which
can be precompiled into the \textit{HOL-BNF} image. The following commands show
how to launch jEdit/PIDE with the image loaded and how to build the image
without launching jEdit:
*}
text {*
\noindent
\ \ \ \ \texttt{isabelle jedit -l HOL-BNF} \\
\noindent
\hbox{}\ \ \ \ \texttt{isabelle build -b HOL-BNF}
*}
text {*
The package, like its predecessor, fully adheres to the LCF philosophy
\cite{mgordon79}: The characteristic theorems associated with the specified
(co)datatypes are derived rather than introduced axiomatically.%
\footnote{If the \textit{quick\_and\_dirty} option is enabled, some of the
internal constructions and most of the internal proof obligations are skipped.}
The package's metatheory is described in a pair of papers
\cite{traytel-et-al-2012,blanchette-et-al-wit}.
This tutorial is organized as follows:
\begin{itemize}
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
\item Section \ref{sec:defining-datatypes}, ``Defining Datatypes,''
describes how to specify datatypes using the @{command datatype_new} command.
\item Section \ref{sec:defining-recursive-functions}, ``Defining Recursive
Functions,'' describes how to specify recursive functions using
\keyw{primrec\_new}, @{command fun}, and @{command function}.

describes how to specify codatatypes using the @{command codatatype} command.
\item Section \ref{sec:defining-corecursive-functions}, ``Defining Corecursive

\keyw{primcorec} command.
\item Section \ref{sec:registering-bounded-natural-functors}, ``Registering
Bounded Natural Functors,'' explains how to set up the package to allow nested
recursion through custom well-behaved type constructors.
\item Section \ref{sec:generating-free-constructor-theorems}, ``Generating Free
Constructor Theorems,'' explains how to derive convenience theorems for free
constructors, as performed internally by @{command datatype_new} and

section {* Defining Datatypes
\label{sec:defining-datatypes} *}
text {*
This section describes how to specify datatypes using the @{command datatype_new}
command. The command is first illustrated through concrete examples featuring
different flavors of recursion. More examples can be found in the directory
\verb|~~/src/HOL/BNF/Examples|.
*}
subsection {* Examples
\label{ssec:datatype-examples} *}
subsubsection {* Nonrecursive Types *}
text {*
Datatypes are introduced by specifying the desired names and argument types for
their constructors. \emph{Enumeration types} are the simplest form of datatype:
All their constructors are nullary:
*}
datatype_new trool = Truue | Faalse | Perhaaps
text {*
\noindent
All three constructors have the type @{typ trool}.
Polymorphic types are possible, such as the following option type, modeled after
its homologue from the @{theory Option} theory:
*}
(*<*)
hide_const None Some
(*>*)
datatype_new 'a option = None | Some 'a
text {*
\noindent
The constructors are @{term "None :: 'a option"} and
@{term "Some :: 'a \<Rightarrow> 'a option"}.
The next example has three type parameters:
*}
datatype_new ('a, 'b, 'c) triple = Triple 'a 'b 'c
text {*
\noindent
The constructor is
@{term "Triple :: 'a \<Rightarrow> 'b \<Rightarrow> 'c \<Rightarrow> ('a, 'b, 'c) triple"}.
Unlike in Standard ML, curried constructors are supported. The uncurried variant
is also possible:
*}
datatype_new ('a, 'b, 'c) triple\<^sub>u = Triple\<^sub>u "'a * 'b * 'c"
subsubsection {* Simple Recursion *}
text {*
simplest recursive type: copy of the natural numbers:
*}
(*<*)
(* FIXME: remove "rep_compat" once "datatype_new" is integrated with "fun" *)
(*>*)
datatype_new (*<*)(rep_compat) (*>*)nat = Zero | Suc nat
text {*
lists were shown in the introduction; terminated lists are a variant:
*}
datatype_new ('a, 'b) tlist = TNil 'b | TCons 'a "('a, 'b) tlist"
text {*
On the right-hand side of the equal sign, the usual Isabelle conventions apply:
Nonatomic types must be enclosed in double quotes.
*}
subsubsection {* Mutual Recursion *}
text {*
Mutual recursion = Define several types simultaneously, referring to each other.
Simple example: distinction between even and odd natural numbers:
*}
datatype_new enat = EZero | ESuc onat
and onat = OSuc enat
text {*
More complex, and more realistic, example:
*}
datatype_new ('a, 'b) exp =
Term "('a, 'b) trm" | Sum "('a, 'b) trm" "('a, 'b) exp"
and ('a, 'b) trm =
Factor "('a, 'b) fct" | Prod "('a, 'b) fct" "('a, 'b) trm"
and ('a, 'b) fct =
Const 'a | Var 'b | Expr "('a, 'b) exp"
subsubsection {* Nested Recursion *}
text {*
Nested recursion = Have recursion through a type constructor.
The introduction showed some examples of trees with nesting through lists.
More complex example, which reuses our option type:
*}
datatype_new 'a btree =
BNode 'a "'a btree option" "'a btree option"
text {*
Recursion may not be arbitrary; e.g. impossible to define
*}
datatype_new 'a evil = Evil (*<*)'a
typ (*>*)"'a evil \<Rightarrow> 'a evil"
text {*
Issue: => allows recursion only on its right-hand side.
This issue is inherited by polymorphic datatypes (and codatatypes)
defined in terms of =>.
In general, type constructors "('a1, ..., 'an) k" allow recursion on a subset
of their type arguments.
*}
subsubsection {* Auxiliary Constants and Syntaxes *}
text {*
The @{command datatype_new} command introduces various constants in addition to the
constructors. Given a type @{text "('a1,\<dots>,'aM) t"} with constructors
@{text "t.C\<^sub>1"}, \ldots, @{text "t.C\<^sub>m"}, the following auxiliary
constants are introduced (among others):
\begin{itemize}
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
\item \emph{Set functions} (\emph{natural transformations}):
@{text t_set1}, \ldots, @{text t_setM}
\item \emph{Map function} (\emph{functorial action}): @{text t_map}
\item \emph{Relator}: @{text t_rel}
\item \emph{Iterator}: @{text t_fold}
\item \emph{Recursor}: @{text t_rec}
\item \emph{Discriminators}: @{text "t.is_C\<^sub>1"}, \ldots,
@{text "t.is_C\<^sub>m"}
\item \emph{Selectors}:
@{text t.un_C}$_{11}$, \ldots, @{text t.un_C}$_{1n_1}$, \ldots,
@{text t.un_C}$_{m1}$, \ldots, @{text t.un_C}$_{mn_m}$
\end{itemize}
The discriminators and selectors are collectively called \emph{destructors}. The
@{text "t."} prefix is an optional component of the name and is normally hidden.
The set functions, map function, relator, discriminators, and selectors can be
given custom names, as in the example below:
*}
(*<*)
no_translations
"[x, xs]" == "x # [xs]"
"[x]" == "x # []"
no_notation
Nil ("[]") and
Cons (infixr "#" 65)
hide_const Nil Cons hd tl map
locale dummy_list
begin
(*>*)
datatype_new (set: 'a) list (map: map rel: list_all2) =
null: Nil (defaults tl: Nil)
| Cons (hd: 'a) (tl: "'a list")
text {*
\noindent
The command introduces a discriminator @{const null} and a pair of selectors
@{const hd} and @{const tl} characterized as follows:
%
\[@{thm list.collapse(1)[of xs, no_vars]}
\qquad @{thm list.collapse(2)[of xs, no_vars]}\]
%
For two-constructor datatypes, a single discriminator constant suffices. The
discriminator associated with @{const Cons} is simply @{text "\<not> null"}.
The \keyw{defaults} keyword following the @{const Nil} constructor specifies a
default value for selectors associated with other constructors. Here, it is
used to specify that the tail of the empty list is the empty list (instead of
being unspecified).
Because @{const Nil} is a nullary constructor, it is also possible to use @{text
"= Nil"} as a discriminator. This is specified by specifying @{text "="} instead
of the identifier @{const null} in the declaration above. Although this may look
appealing, the mixture of constructors and selectors in the resulting
characteristic theorems can lead Isabelle's automation to switch between the
constructor and the destructor view in surprising ways.
*}
text {*
The usual mixfix syntaxes are available for both types and constructors. For example:
%%% FIXME: remove trailing underscore and use locale trick instead once this is
%%% supported.
*}
(*<*)
end
(*>*)
datatype_new ('a, 'b) prod (infixr "*" 20) =
Pair 'a 'b
datatype_new (set: 'a) list (map: map rel: list_all2) =
null: Nil ("[]")
| Cons (hd: 'a) (tl: "'a list") (infixr "#" 65)
text {*
Incidentally, this is how the traditional syntaxes can be set up:
*}
syntax "_list" :: "args \<Rightarrow> 'a list" ("[(_)]")
translations
"[x, xs]" == "x # [xs]"
"[x]" == "x # []"
subsection {* Syntax
\label{ssec:datatype-syntax} *}
text {*
Datatype definitions have the following general syntax:
@{rail "
@@{command datatype_new} @{syntax target}? @{syntax dt_options}? \\
(@{syntax dt_name} '=' (@{syntax ctor} + '|') + @'and')
;
@{syntax_def dt_options}: '(' ((@'no_discs_sels' | @'rep_compat') + ',') ')'
"}
The syntactic quantity @{syntax target} can be used to specify a local context
(e.g., @{text "(in linorder)"}). It is documented in the Isar reference manual
\cite{isabelle-isar-ref}.
The optional target is followed by optional options:
\begin{itemize}
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
\item
The \keyw{no\_discs\_sels} option indicates that no destructors (i.e.,
discriminators and selectors) should be generated.
\item
The \keyw{rep\_compat} option indicates that the names generated by the
package should contain optional (and normally not displayed) @{text "new."}
components to prevent clashes with a later call to @{command rep_datatype}. See
Section~\ref{ssec:datatype-compatibility-issues} for details.
\end{itemize}
The left-hand sides of the datatype equations specify the name of the type to
define, its type parameters, and optional additional information:
@{rail "
@{syntax_def dt_name}: @{syntax tyargs}? @{syntax name}
@{syntax map_rel}? @{syntax mixfix}?
;
@{syntax_def tyargs}: @{syntax typefree} | '(' ((@{syntax name} ':')? @{syntax typefree} + ',') ')'
;
@{syntax_def map_rel}: '(' ((('map' | 'rel') ':' @{syntax name}) +) ')'
"}
\noindent
The syntactic quantity @{syntax name} denotes an identifier, @{syntax typefree}
denotes fixed type variable (@{typ 'a}, @{typ 'b}, \ldots), and @{syntax
mixfix} denotes the usual parenthesized mixfix notation. They are documented in
the Isar reference manual \cite{isabelle-isar-ref}.
The optional names preceding the type variables allow to override the default
names of the set functions (@{text t_set1}, \ldots, @{text t_setM}).
Inside a mutually recursive datatype specification, all defined datatypes must
specify exactly the same type variables in the same order.
@{rail "
@{syntax_def ctor}: (@{syntax name} ':')? @{syntax name} (@{syntax ctor_arg} * ) \\
@{syntax dt_sel_defaults}? @{syntax mixfix}?
"}
\noindent
The main constituents of a constructor specification is the name of the
constructor and the list of its argument types. An optional discriminator name
can be supplied at the front to override the default name
(@{text t.un_C}$_{ij}$).
@{rail "
@{syntax_def ctor_arg}: @{syntax type} | '(' @{syntax name} ':' @{syntax type} ')'
"}
\noindent
In addition to the type of a constructor argument, it is possible to specify a
name for the corresponding selector to override the default name
(@{text t.un_C}$_{ij}$). The same selector names can be reused for several
constructors as long as they have the same type.
@{rail "
@{syntax_def dt_sel_defaults}: '(' @'defaults' (@{syntax name} ':' @{syntax term} +) ')'
"}
\noindent
Given a constructor
@{text "C \<Colon> \<sigma>\<^sub>1 \<Rightarrow> \<dots> \<Rightarrow> \<sigma>\<^sub>p \<Rightarrow> \<sigma>"},
default values can be specified for any selector
@{text "un_D \<Colon> \<sigma> \<Rightarrow> \<tau>"}
associated with other constructors. The specified default value must have type
@{text "\<sigma>\<^sub>1 \<Rightarrow> \<dots> \<Rightarrow> \<sigma>\<^sub>p \<Rightarrow> \<tau>"}
(i.e., it may dependend on @{text C}'s arguments).

subsection {* Recursive Default Values for Selectors
\label{ssec:recursive-default-values-for-selectors} *}
text {*
A datatype selector @{text un_D} can have a default value for each constructor
on which it is not otherwise specified. Occasionally, it is useful to have the
default value be defined recursively. This produces a chicken-and-egg situation
that appears unsolvable, because the datatype is not introduced yet at the
moment when the selectors are introduced. Of course, we can always define the
selectors manually afterward, but we then have to state and prove all the
characteristic theorems ourselves instead of letting the package do it.
Fortunately, there is a fairly elegant workaround that relies on overloading and
that avoids the tedium of manual derivations:
\begin{enumerate}
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
\item
Introduce a fully unspecified constant @{text "un_D\<^sub>0 \<Colon> 'a"} using
@{keyword consts}.
\item
Define the datatype, specifying @{text "un_D\<^sub>0"} as the selector's default value.
\item
Define the behavior of @{text "un_D\<^sub>0"} on values of the newly introduced datatype
using the @{command overloading} command.
\item
Derive the desired equation on @{text un_D} from the characteristic equations
for @{text "un_D\<^sub>0"}.
\end{enumerate}
The following example illustrates this procedure:
*}
consts termi\<^sub>0 :: 'a
datatype_new (*<*)(rep_compat) (*>*)('a, 'b) tlist_ =
TNil (termi: 'b) (defaults ttl: TNil)
| TCons (thd: 'a) (ttl : "('a, 'b) tlist_") (defaults termi: "\<lambda>_ xs. termi\<^sub>0 xs")
(*<*)
(* FIXME: remove hack once "primrec_new" is in place *)
rep_datatype TNil TCons
by (erule tlist_.induct, assumption) auto
(*>*)

termi\<^sub>0 \<equiv> "termi\<^sub>0 \<Colon> ('a, 'b) tlist_ \<Rightarrow> 'b"
begin
(*<*)
(* FIXME: remove hack once "primrec_new" is in place *)
fun termi\<^sub>0 :: "('a, 'b) tlist_ \<Rightarrow> 'b" where
"termi\<^sub>0 (TNil y) = y" |
"termi\<^sub>0 (TCons x xs) = termi\<^sub>0 xs"
(*>*)
primrec_new termi\<^sub>0 :: "('a, 'b) tlist_ \<Rightarrow> 'b" where
"termi\<^sub>0 (TNil y) = y" |
"termi\<^sub>0 (TCons x xs) = termi\<^sub>0 xs"

Tobias Nipkow and Makarius Wenzel made this work possible. Andreas Lochbihler
provided lots of comments on earlier versions of the package, especially for the
coinductive part. Brian Huffman suggested major simplifications to the internal
constructions, much of which has yet to be implemented. Florian Haftmann and
Christian Urban provided general advice advice on Isabelle and package writing.
Stefan Milius and Lutz Schr\"oder suggested an elegant proof to eliminate one of
the BNF assumptions.
