Abstract Saturation-based Inference

Abstract

Solving goals---like deciding word problems or resolving constraints---is much easier in some theory presentations than in others. What have been called ``completion processes'', in particular in the study of equational logic, involve finding appropriate presentations of a given theory to solve easily a given class of problems. We provide a general proof-theoretic setting within which completion-like processes can be modelled and studied. This framework centers around well-founded orderings of proofs. It allows for abstract definitions and very general characterizations of saturation processes and redundancy criteria.
