Hello,

I have been working with the type "('a,'b) vec" from HOL-Analysis, and some
AFP entries. Handling such a big library requires searching for various
constructs that other people have built. I've managed to find many things
with the Ctrl+Click feature but there are others that I'd still like to
learn. In particular:

· What's the proper way to find the file where a theorem of the form
"OFCLASS(_,_)" was proved? E.g. how do I find where the type vec was shown
to be a "ring_1"?
· How can I quickly find the line where a notation was introduced? When I
Ctrl+Click the symbol, it takes me to the definition/abbreviation, but the
notation may have been set up in other places.
· If I use a list of "named_theorems" other people introduced, how do I
tell Isabelle to show me the theorem it just applied (from the many
contained in the list)?
· How do I search if a class/locale has been declared a subclass/sublocale
of another?

Sincerely,
Jonathan Julian Huerta y Munive

That is a nice summary of things that don't quite work, as far as I can
tell on the spot.

Maybe some expert users know a few tricks as partial solutions.

I quite frequently use a command
find_in_theorems pattern in thms1 ... thmsn

For example:
find_in_theorems "_+_" "_*_" in algebra_simps field_simps

Results
Rings.semiring_class.distrib_right: algebra_simps(17): (?a + ?b) * ?c
= ?a * ?c + ?b * ?c
Rings.semiring_class.distrib_left: algebra_simps(18): ?a * (?b + ?c)
= ?a * ?b + ?a * ?c
Rings.semiring_class.distrib_left_NO_MATCH: field_simps(17): NO_MATCH
(?x div ?y) ?a ⟹ ?a * (?b + ?c) = ?a * ?b + ?a * ?c
Rings.semiring_class.distrib_right_NO_MATCH: field_simps(18):
NO_MATCH (?x div ?y) ?c ⟹ (?a + ?b) * ?c = ?a * ?c + ?b * ?c
Fields.division_ring_class.add_divide_eq_iff: field_simps(26): ?z ≠ 0
⟹ ?x + ?y / ?z = (?x * ?z + ?y) / ?z
Fields.division_ring_class.divide_add_eq_iff: field_simps(27): ?z ≠ 0
⟹ ?x / ?z + ?y = (?x + ?y * ?z) / ?z
Fields.division_ring_class.minus_divide_add_eq_iff: field_simps(29):
?z ≠ 0 ⟹ - (?x / ?z) + ?y = (- ?x + ?y * ?z) / ?z

Compared to find-theorems, the command is a bit limited, as it does not
support goal-dependent patterns like intro, elim, dest. It's already
suitable to search for certain theorems in large
named_theorems-collections. It will show the "simplest" name of the
theorem, the number of the theorem in the theorem-collection, and the
statement of the theorem.

With a bit of work, this feature could be integrated into the full
find-theorems command, e.g., in a context with a subgoal, you could
then write

find_theorems intro in algebra_simps

I attach my current prototype for the find_in_theorems command
to this mail, in case someone is interested...
Find_In_Theorems.thy
Names_Of_Thm.thy

· How do I search if a class/locale has been declared a subclass/sublocale
of another?

A quick-and-dirty way might be to attempt to prove it. For example, if we are not sure if a field is a sublocale of a semiring, we can put down:

sublocale field ⊆ semiring

and Isabelle will suggest:

Auto solve_direct: the current goal can be solved directly with
local.semiring_axioms: class.semiring (+) (*)

So that we know it is trivially provable and a field is indeed a sublocale of a semiring.

There probably is a better way to do this…

Hello,

We finally have a list of answers to all the questions I did on
11/10/2019 about
various searches in Isabelle. Thanks to Peter, Wenda, Makarius and Fabian
for their replies. Hopefully, the solutions can be integrated in one place.

Hi Jonathan,

[... ]I have build a tool (search.isabelle.in.tum.de) which might be
interesting.

First of all, here is the query

that gives you all entities using the "('a, 'b) vec" type (you can filter
these results further).

We can then find where vec was shown to be a ring_1: Filtering by
'instance' commands and 'ring_1' in the source text gives me a single
result
