Topic: using "of"

I'm trying to use "of" to limit my search space for sledgehammer. I have the assumption
∀n ≤ degree f. P (coeff f n)
and want to using the fact P (coeff g (degree g)).

I tried writing using assms[of "degree g"].

However, I get the error
More instantiations than variables in theorem.

How do I fix this?

I guess your assms here contains more than one theorems :-) Try assms(1), assms(2), etc.

I have a new problem.. how can I apply a fact with a variable replaced?

have ind: "∀n. coeff f n ∈ K ⟹ set f ⊆ K" <proof>

I want the fact ∀n. coeff (deri_non_norm (a # P)) n ∈ K ⟹ set (deri_non_norm (a # P)) ⊆ K.

ind[of "deri_non_norm (a # P)"] gives the error More instantiations than variables in theorem.

When I using theorem, normally the state gives me variables like ?f, but this time it just gives me f. I assume this is the problem. How can I fix it?

ind[rule_format, of "deri_non_norm (a # P)"] perhaps?

or did you forget a for f / ⋀f in the step ind?

Try the following with and without the for f:

notepad begin
  have ind: "∀n. coeff f n ∈ K ⟹ set f ⊆ K" for f sorry
  thm ind[of f]
end

Unlike theorems, have do not generalize over arbitrary variables
