Dear list,
Can I influence what name sledgehammer generated proofs use for a
theorem that goes by different names.
E.g., I have
lemma my_op_assoc: "..."
and further down the line, I have:
lemmas prep_fri_simps = my_op_assoc
The latter one is meant to be used for a specific task (and I expect
that it might get expanded in the future).
Now, sledgehammer's proof reconstruction seems to prefer the name
prep_fri_simps over my_op_assoc. Is there any way to tell sh to prefer
the other name?

Hi Peter,
There's no way unfortunately. I have some code that should make Sledgehammer prefer "foo" over "bar(7)", but somehow that code doesn't seem to work, as others have pointed out in the past. I need to look into this.
Best,
Jasmin

Hi Peter,
you may want to try the (undocumented?) no_atp attribute to blacklist
the lemmas you do not want Sledgehammer to use.
From the src/HOL/HOL.thy file, where no_atp is defined.
Theorems blacklisted to Sledgehammer. These theorems typically
produce clauses
that are prolific (match too many equality or membership literals)
and relate to
seldom-used facts. Some duplicate other rules.
Cheers,
Martin

If I understand correctly the noatp will blacklist the fact, under any name it
comes with. I still want to use the fact, just with it's nice name.

Peter is right: no_atp kills the theorem, not just the name, unfortunately.

Ah, I did not realized that. That is unfortunate.
An attribute to disable just the name should probably go on our
nice-to-have list. I also sometimes encounter situations similar to
Peter's one.
One such example is when a named collection of lemmas is introduced. e.g.
lemmas my_stuff_simps = foo_simp bar_simp baz_simp
I think it would be good to have a way to ensure that Sledgehammer uses,
e.g., bar_simp instead of my_stuff_simps(2).
Cheers,
Martin

Hi Jasmin &al.,
Peter is right: no_atp kills the theorem, not just the name, unfortunately.
good to learn about that, the official documentation in the source
https://isabelle-dev.sketis.net/source/isabelle/browse/default/src/HOL/HOL.thy$775
confirms that.
In recent times, when sorting out lemma duplicates etc. I tended to use
[no_atp] with the misleading assumption that it would rule out a
discouraged name rather than a whole proposition.
Is there any way to indicate to SH that some names are preferrable to
others?
Cheers,
Florian

A not directly related remark – there are two quite creative proof
incantations relying on no_atp:
reading
proof (intro no_atp(10)[OF subsetI subsetI])
…

Oh, nice... Find_theorem at it's best, from the old days when it didn't prefer
nice names?? Must be fixed, very fragile proof...

Unfortunately, there is not. If somebody wants to design and implement such a scheme, I'd be happy to help them.
