\item @{ML Variable.declare_term}~@{text "t ctxt"} declares term
@{text "t"} to belong to the context. This fixes free type
variables, but not term variables. Constraints for type and term
variables are declared uniformly.
\item @{ML Variable.add_fixes}~@{text "xs ctxt"} fixes term
variables @{text "xs"} and returns the internal names of the
resulting Skolem constants. Note that term fixes refer to
\emph{all} type instances that may occur in the future.
\item @{ML Variable.invent_fixes} is similar to @{ML
Variable.add_fixes}, but the given names merely act as hints for
internal fixes produced here.
\item @{ML Variable.import}~@{text "open ths ctxt"} augments the
context by new fixes for the schematic type and term variables
occurring in @{text "ths"}. The @{text "open"} flag indicates
whether the fixed names should be accessible to the user, otherwise
internal names are chosen.
\item @{ML Variable.export}~@{text "inner outer ths"} generalizes
fixed type and term variables in @{text "ths"} according to the
difference of the @{text "inner"} and @{text "outer"} context. Note
that type variables occurring in term variables are still fixed.
@{ML Variable.export} essentially reverses the effect of @{ML
Variable.import} (up to renaming of schematic variables.
\item @{ML Variable.trade} composes @{ML Variable.import} and @{ML
Variable.export}, i.e.\ it provides a view on facts with all
variables being fixed in the current context.
\item @{ML Variable.polymorphic}~@{text "ctxt ts"} generalizes type
variables in @{text "ts"} as far as possible, even those occurring
in fixed term variables. This operation essentially reverses the
default policy of type-inference to introduce local polymorphism as
fixed types.

section {* Assumptions *}
text {*
An \emph{assumption} is a proposition that it is postulated in the
current context. Local conclusions may use assumptions as
additional facts, but this imposes implicit hypotheses that weaken
the overall statement.
Assumptions are restricted to fixed non-schematic statements, all
generality needs to be expressed by explicit quantifiers.
Nevertheless, the result will be in HHF normal form with outermost
quantifiers stripped. For example, by assuming @{text "\<And>x :: \<alpha>. P
x"} we get @{text "\<And>x :: \<alpha>. P x \<turnstile> P ?x"} for arbitrary @{text "?x"}
of the fixed type @{text "\<alpha>"}. Local derivations accumulate more
and more explicit references to hypotheses: @{text "A\<^isub>1, \<dots>,
A\<^isub>n \<turnstile> B"} where @{text "A\<^isub>1, \<dots>, A\<^isub>n"} needs to
be covered by the assumptions of the current context.
\medskip The @{text "add_assms"} operation augments the context by
local assumptions, which are parameterized by an arbitrary @{text
"export"} rule (see below).
The @{text "export"} operation moves facts from a (larger) inner
context into a (smaller) outer context, by discharging the
difference of the assumptions as specified by the associated export
rules. Note that the discharged portion is determined by the
difference contexts, not the facts being exported! There is a
separate flag to indicate a goal context, where the result is meant
to refine an enclosing sub-goal of a structured proof state (cf.\
\secref{sec:isar-proof-state}).
\medskip The most basic export rule discharges assumptions directly
by means of the @{text "\<Longrightarrow>"} introduction rule:
\[
\infer[(@{text "\<Longrightarrow>_intro"})]{@{text "\<Gamma> \\ A \<turnstile> A \<Longrightarrow> B"}}{@{text "\<Gamma> \<turnstile> B"}}
\]
The variant for goal refinements marks the newly introduced
premises, which causes the builtin goal refinement scheme of Isar to
enforce unification with local premises within the goal:
\[
\infer[(@{text "#\<Longrightarrow>_intro"})]{@{text "\<Gamma> \\ A \<turnstile> #A \<Longrightarrow> B"}}{@{text "\<Gamma> \<turnstile> B"}}
\]
\medskip Alternative assumptions may perform arbitrary
transformations on export, as long as a particular portion of
hypotheses is removed from the given facts. For example, a local
definition works by fixing @{text "x"} and assuming @{text "x \<equiv> t"},
with the following export rule to reverse the effect:
\[
\infer{@{text "\<Gamma> \\ x \<equiv> t \<turnstile> B t"}}{@{text "\<Gamma> \<turnstile> B x"}}
\]
\medskip The general concept supports block-structured reasoning
nicely, with arbitrary mechanisms for introducing local assumptions.
The common reasoning pattern is as follows:
\medskip
\begin{tabular}{l}
@{text "add_assms e\<^isub>1 A\<^isub>1"} \\
@{text "\<dots>"} \\
@{text "add_assms e\<^isub>n A\<^isub>n"} \\
@{text "export"} \\
\end{tabular}
\medskip
\noindent The final @{text "export"} will turn any fact @{text
"A\<^isub>1, \<dots>, A\<^isub>n \<turnstile> B"} into some @{text "\<turnstile> B'"}, by
applying the export rules @{text "e\<^isub>1, \<dots>, e\<^isub>n"}
inside-out.

\item @{ML_type Assumption.export} represents arbitrary export
rules, which is any function of type @{ML_type "bool -> cterm list -> thm -> thm"},
where the @{ML_type "bool"} indicates goal mode, and the @{ML_type
"cterm list"} the collection of assumptions to be discharged
simultaneously.
\item @{ML Assumption.assume}~@{text "A"} turns proposition @{text
"A"} into a raw assumption @{text "A \<turnstile> A'"}, where the conclusion
@{text "A'"} is in HHF normal form.
\item @{ML Assumption.add_assms}~@{text "e As"} augments the context
by assumptions @{text "As"} with export rule @{text "e"}. The
resulting facts are hypothetical theorems as produced by @{ML
Assumption.assume}.
\item @{ML Assumption.add_assumes}~@{text "As"} is a special case of
@{ML Assumption.add_assms} where the export rule performs @{text
"\<Longrightarrow>_intro"} or @{text "#\<Longrightarrow>_intro"}, depending on goal mode.
\item @{ML Assumption.export}~@{text "is_goal inner outer th"}
exports result @{text "th"} from the the @{text "inner"} context
back into the @{text "outer"} one; @{text "is_goal = true"} means
this is a goal context. The result is in HHF normal form. Note
that @{ML "ProofContext.export"} combines @{ML "Variable.export"}
and @{ML "Assumption.export"} in the canonical way.
