Proof terms for simply typed higher order logic

Stefan Berghofer and Tobias Nipkow

This paper presents proof terms for simply typed, intuitionistic higher order logic, a popular logical framework. Unification-based algorithms for the compression and reconstruction of proof terms are described and have been implemented in the theorem prover Isabelle. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the compression scheme.
