SPIKE

Keywords: Proof - Automated deduction - Automated theorem proving - Term Rewriting Systems - Formal methods

Scientific Description: SPIKE, an automatic induction-based theorem prover built to reason on conditional theories with equality, is one of the few formal tools able to perform automatically mutual and lazy induction. Designed in the 1990s, it has been successfully used in many non-trivial applications and served as a prototype for different proof experiments and extensions.

Functional Description: Automated induction-based theorem prover

Release Functional Description: Proof certification with Coq, cyclic induction, decision procedures
