Foundations of Proof Search Strategies Design in Linear Logic
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate automated proof construction in classical linear logic (CLL) by giving logical foundations for the design of proof search strategies. We propose common theoretical foundations for top-down, bottom-up and mixed proof search procedures with a systematic formalization of strategies construction using the notions of {\em immediate or chaining composition or decomposition}, deduced from permutability pro\-perties and inference movements in a proof. Thus, we have logical bases for the design of proof strategies in CLL fragments and then we can propose sketches for their design.
