Introduction

The proof net calculator is a library of functions (or methods) for manipulating MLL proof nets of Linear Logic without the multiplicative units. It has a proof search engine based on proof net construction, a normalization procedure based on Geometry of Interaction, a compiler for the linear lambda calculus into MLL proof nets, and a translator of linear lambda terms into intuitionistic proof nets. The proof net calculator also has a simple GUI tool, which displays an MLL proof net on a PC screen and outputs an encapsulated postscript file for it. Its implementation has been done using the programming language Scala, which is an object-oriented functional programming language over the Java Virtual Machine. It can also solve NP-complete problems with search space reduction using backtracking and dependency relations of ID-links. Compared to a solver without these mechanisms, it is able to solve instances with much larger sizes.

How to Use
  • I suppose that you use the Microsoft windows system. But even if you use another operating system, then you can adapt these instructions to your system easily.
  • I assume that your system already has installed JRE and simple build system (sbt). Otherwise, go to

    https://java.com

    and/or

    https://www.scala-sbt.org/

  • Download the proof net calculator package above. I suppose that your directory is %HOME%. Then make the ScalaProjects directory. Put the downloaded zip file in this directory and unzip it. Start your command prompt shell. Go to %HOME%\ScalaProjects\ProofNetCalculator. Then enter

    sbt

    (for the first time, it will take a long time) and see ReadMe files in %HOME%\ScalaProjects\ProofNetCalculator\Examples in order to know how to run this software.
