    P. Oxy. 29, one of the oldest surviving fragments of Euclid's Elements, a textbook used for millennia to teach proof-writing techniques. The diagram accompanies Book II, Proposition 5. [1] A mathematical proof is a deductive argument for a mathematical statement, showing that the stated assumptions logically guarantee the

    We prove associativity by first fixing natural numbers a and b and applying induction on the natural number c.. For the base case c = 0, (a + b) + 0 = a + b = a + (b + 0)Each equation follows by definition [A1]; the first with a + b, the second with b.

  5. Proof assistant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_assistant

    In computer science and mathematical logic, a proof assistant or interactive theorem prover is a software tool to assist with the development of formal proofs by human–machine collaboration. This involves some sort of interactive proof editor, or other interface , with which a human can guide the search for proofs, the details of which are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabelle_(proof_assistant)

    The Isabelle [a] automated theorem prover is a higher-order logic (HOL) theorem prover, written in Standard ML and Scala.As a Logic for Computable Functions (LCF) style theorem prover, it is based on a small logical core (kernel) to increase the trustworthiness of proofs without requiring, yet supporting, explicit proof objects.

  7. Metamath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamath

    Metamath is a formal language and an associated computer program (a proof assistant) for archiving and verifying mathematical proofs. [2] Several databases of proved theorems have been developed using Metamath covering standard results in logic, set theory, number theory, algebra, topology and analysis, among others.

    Now, random variables (Pε, Mε) are jointly normal as a linear transformation of ε, and they are also uncorrelated because PM = 0. By properties of multivariate normal distribution, this means that Pε and Mε are independent, and therefore estimators β ^ {\displaystyle {\widehat {\beta }}} and σ ^ 2 {\displaystyle {\widehat {\sigma }}^{\,2 ...
