- 2. Outline Proposed Contribution A proof-producing meta-theorem prover for Twelf. 1. This is an important problem! Twelf is the strongest proof assistant in its domain Many applications, in theory and practice Requires more work than it should 2. We can (hopefully) solve it! The inverse method Focusing Polarization 3. We can solve other interesting problems along the way! First-order logic Constraints LF 2 / 32
