The following abstract syntax and semantics of Hoare Logic over ▩‹WHILE›
programs closely follows the existing tradition in Isabelle/HOL of
formalizing the presentation given in @{cite ‹\S6› "Winskel:1993"}. See also

subsection ‹Primitive Hoare rules›
text ‹
From the semantics defined above, we derive the standard set of primitive
Hoare rules; e.g.\ see @{cite ‹\S6› "Winskel:1993"}. Usually, variant forms
of these rules are applied in actual proof, see also \S\ref{sec:hoare-isar}
and \S\ref{sec:hoare-vcg}.
┉
The ‹basic› rule represents any kind of atomic access to the state space.
This subsumes the common rules of ‹skip› and ‹assign›, as formulated in
\S\ref{sec:hoare-isar}.

The rule for conditional commands is directly reflected by the corresponding
semantics; in the proof we just have to look closely which cases apply.

The ‹while› rule is slightly less trivial --- it is the only one based on
recursion, which is expressed in the semantics by a Kleene-style least
fixed-point construction. The auxiliary statement below, which is by
induction on the number of iterations is the main point to be proven; the
rest is by routine application of the semantics of ▩‹WHILE›.

subsection ‹Concrete syntax for assertions›
text ‹
We now introduce concrete syntax for describing commands (with embedded
expressions) and assertions. The basic technique is that of semantic
``quote-antiquote''. A ∗‹quotation› is a syntactic entity delimited by an
implicit abstraction, say over the state space. An ∗‹antiquotation› is a
marked expression within a quotation that refers the implicit argument; a
typical antiquotation would select (or even update) components from the
state.
We will see some examples later in the concrete rules and applications.
┉
The following specification of syntax and translations is for Isabelle
experts only; feel free to ignore it.
While the first part is still a somewhat intelligible specification of the
concrete syntactic representation of our Hoare language, the actual ``ML
drivers'' is quite involved. Just note that the we re-use the basic
quote/antiquote translations as already defined in Isabelle/Pure (see \<^ML>‹Syntax_Trans.quote_tr›, and \<^ML>‹Syntax_Trans.quote_tr'›,).

As usual in Isabelle syntax translations, the part for printing is more
complicated --- we cannot express parts as macro rules as above. Don't look
here, unless you have to do similar things for yourself.

subsection ‹Rules for single-step proof \label{sec:hoare-isar}›
text ‹
We are now ready to introduce a set of Hoare rules to be used in single-step
structured proofs in Isabelle/Isar. We refer to the concrete syntax
introduce above.
┉
Assertions of Hoare Logic may be manipulated in calculational proofs, with
the inclusion expressed in terms of sets or predicates. Reversed order is
supported as well.

text ‹
Note that above formulation of assignment corresponds to our preferred way
to model state spaces, using (extensible) record types in HOL @{cite
"Naraschewski-Wenzel:1998:HOOL"}. For any record field ‹x›, Isabelle/HOL
provides a functions ‹x› (selector) and ‹x_update› (update). Above, there is
only a place-holder appearing for the latter kind of function: due to
concrete syntax ‹´x := ´a› also contains ‹x_update›.⁋‹Note that due to the
external nature of HOL record fields, we could not even state a general
theorem relating selector and update functions (if this were required here);
this would only work for any particular instance of record fields introduced
so far.›

Sequential composition --- normalizing with associativity achieves proper of
chunks of code verified separately.

subsection ‹Verification conditions \label{sec:hoare-vcg}›
text ‹
We now load the ∗‹original› ML file for proof scripts and tactic definition
for the Hoare Verification Condition Generator (see 🗀‹~~/src/HOL/Hoare›).
As far as we are concerned here, the result is a proof method ‹hoare›, which
may be applied to a Hoare Logic assertion to extract purely logical
verification conditions. It is important to note that the method requires
▩‹WHILE› loops to be fully annotated with invariants beforehand.
Furthermore, only ∗‹concrete› pieces of code are handled --- the underlying
tactic fails ungracefully if supplied with meta-variables or parameters, for
example.
