A Proposal for Automating Diagrammatic Reasoning in Continuous Domains
[chapter]
2000
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper presents one approach to the formalisation of diagrammatic proofs as an alternative to algebraic logic. An idea of 'generic diagrams' is developed whereby one diagram (or rather, one sequence of diagrams) can be used to prove many instances of a theorem. This allows the extension of Jamnik's ideas in the Diamond system to continuous domains. The domain is restricted to non-recursive proofs in real analysis whose statement and proof have a strong geometric component. The aim is to
