They can be considered as tools that macro-generate complicated uses of the basic elimination tactics for inductive types.

Thus, the current goal can be trivially proved by absurdity. \item we have a hypothesis that is an instance of an inductive predicate, and the instance has some variables whose constraints we would like to derive. \end{itemize} The inversion tactics are very useful to simplify the work in these cases. Inversion tools can be classified in three groups: \begin{enumerate} \item tactics for inverting an instance without stocking the inversion lemma in the context: (\texttt{Dependent}) \texttt{Inversion} and (\texttt{Dependent}) \texttt{Inversion\_clear}. \item commands for generating and stocking in the context the inversion lemma corresponding to an instance: \texttt{Derive} (\texttt{Dependent}) \texttt{Inversion}, \texttt{Derive} (\texttt{Dependent}) \texttt{Inversion\_clear}. \item tactics for inverting an instance using an already defined inversion lemma: \texttt{Inversion \ldots using}. \end{enumerate} These tactics work for inductive types of arity $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})s$ where $s \in \{Prop,Set,Type\}$. Sections \ref{inversion_primitive}, \ref{inversion_derivation} and \ref{inversion_using} describe respectively each group of tools. As inversion proofs may be large in size, we recommend the user to stock the lemmas whenever the same instance needs to be inverted several times.\\ Let's consider the relation \texttt{Le} over natural numbers and the following variables: \begin{coq_eval} Restore State "Initial". \end{coq_eval} \begin{coq_example*} Inductive Le : nat -> nat -> Set := | LeO : forall n:nat, Le 0%N n | LeS : forall n m:nat, Le n m -> Le (S n) (S m). Variable P : nat -> nat -> Prop. Variable Q : forall n m:nat, Le n m -> Prop. \end{coq_example*} For example purposes we defined \verb+Le: nat->nat->Set+ but we may have defined it \texttt{Le} of type \verb+nat->nat->Prop+ or \verb+nat->nat->Type+. \section[Inverting an instance]{Inverting an instance\label{inversion_primitive}} \subsection{The non dependent case} \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{Inversion\_clear} \ident~\\ \index{Inversion-clear@{\tt Inversion\_clear}} Let the type of \ident~ in the local context be $(I~\vec{t})$, where $I$ is a (co)inductive predicate. Then, \texttt{Inversion} applied to \ident~ derives for each possible constructor $c_i$ of $(I~\vec{t})$, {\bf all} the necessary conditions that should hold for the instance $(I~\vec{t})$ to be proved by $c_i$. Finally it erases \ident~ from the context. For example, consider the goal: \begin{coq_eval} Lemma ex : forall n m:nat, Le (S n) m -> P n m. intros. \end{coq_eval} \begin{coq_example} Show. \end{coq_example} To prove the goal we may need to reason by cases on \texttt{H} and to derive that \texttt{m} is necessarily of the form $(S~m_0)$ for certain $m_0$ and that $(Le~n~m_0)$. Deriving these conditions corresponds to prove that the only possible constructor of \texttt{(Le (S n) m)} is \texttt{LeS} and that we can invert the \texttt{->} in the type of \texttt{LeS}. This inversion is possible because \texttt{Le} is the smallest set closed by the constructors \texttt{LeO} and \texttt{LeS}. \begin{coq_example} inversion_clear H. \end{coq_example} Note that \texttt{m} has been substituted in the goal for \texttt{(S m0)} and that the hypothesis \texttt{(Le n m0)} has been added to the context. \item \texttt{Inversion} \ident~\\ \index{Inversion@{\tt Inversion}} This tactic differs from {\tt Inversion\_clear} in the fact that it adds the equality constraints in the context and it does not erase the hypothesis \ident. In the previous example, {\tt Inversion\_clear} has substituted \texttt{m} by \texttt{(S m0)}. Sometimes it is interesting to have the equality \texttt{m=(S m0)} in the context to use it after. In that case we can use \texttt{Inversion} that does not clear the equalities: \begin{coq_example*} Undo. \end{coq_example*} \begin{coq_example} inversion H. \end{coq_example} \begin{coq_eval} Undo. \end{coq_eval} Note that the hypothesis \texttt{(S m0)=m} has been deduced and \texttt{H} has not been cleared from the context. \end{itemize} \begin{Variants} \item \texttt{Inversion\_clear } \ident~ \texttt{in} \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$\\ \index{Inversion_clear...in@{\tt Inversion\_clear...in}} Let \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$, be identifiers in the local context. This tactic behaves as generalizing \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$, and then performing {\tt Inversion\_clear}. \item \texttt{Inversion } \ident~ \texttt{in} \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$\\ \index{Inversion ... in@{\tt Inversion ... in}} Let \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$, be identifiers in the local context. This tactic behaves as generalizing \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$, and then performing \texttt{Inversion}. \item \texttt{Simple Inversion} \ident~ \\ \index{Simple Inversion@{\tt Simple Inversion}} It is a very primitive inversion tactic that derives all the necessary equalities but it does not simplify the constraints as \texttt{Inversion} and {\tt Inversion\_clear} do. \end{Variants} \subsection{The dependent case} \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear} \ident~\\ \index{Dependent Inversion-clear@{\tt Dependent Inversion\_clear}} Let the type of \ident~ in the local context be $(I~\vec{t})$, where $I$ is a (co)inductive predicate, and let the goal depend both on $\vec{t}$ and \ident. Then, \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear} applied to \ident~ derives for each possible constructor $c_i$ of $(I~\vec{t})$, {\bf all} the necessary conditions that should hold for the instance $(I~\vec{t})$ to be proved by $c_i$. It also substitutes \ident~ for the corresponding term in the goal and it erases \ident~ from the context. For example, consider the goal: \begin{coq_eval} Lemma ex_dep : forall (n m:nat) (H:Le (S n) m), Q (S n) m H. intros. \end{coq_eval} \begin{coq_example} Show. \end{coq_example} As \texttt{H} occurs in the goal, we may want to reason by cases on its structure and so, we would like inversion tactics to substitute \texttt{H} by the corresponding term in constructor form. Neither \texttt{Inversion} nor {\tt Inversion\_clear} make such a substitution. To have such a behavior we use the dependent inversion tactics: \begin{coq_example} dependent inversion_clear H. \end{coq_example} Note that \texttt{H} has been substituted by \texttt{(LeS n m0 l)} and \texttt{m} by \texttt{(S m0)}. \end{itemize} \begin{Variants} \item \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear } \ident~ \texttt{ with } \term\\ \index{Dependent Inversion_clear...with@{\tt Dependent Inversion\_clear...with}} \noindent Behaves as \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear} but allows to give explicitly the good generalization of the goal. It is useful when the system fails to generalize the goal automatically. If \ident~ has type $(I~\vec{t})$ and $I$ has type $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})s$, then \term~ must be of type $I:(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{x})\rightarrow s'$ where $s'$ is the type of the goal. \item \texttt{Dependent Inversion} \ident~\\ \index{Dependent Inversion@{\tt Dependent Inversion}} This tactic differs from \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear} in the fact that it also adds the equality constraints in the context and it does not erase the hypothesis \ident~. \item \texttt{Dependent Inversion } \ident~ \texttt{ with } \term \\ \index{Dependent Inversion...with@{\tt Dependent Inversion...with}} Analogous to \texttt{Dependent Inversion\_clear .. with..} above. \end{Variants} \section[Deriving the inversion lemmas]{Deriving the inversion lemmas\label{inversion_derivation}} \subsection{The non dependent case} The tactics (\texttt{Dependent}) \texttt{Inversion} and (\texttt{Dependent}) {\tt Inversion\_clear} work on a certain instance $(I~\vec{t})$ of an inductive predicate. At each application, they inspect the given instance and derive the corresponding inversion lemma. If we have to invert the same instance several times it is recommended to stock the lemma in the context and to reuse it whenever we need it. The families of commands \texttt{Derive Inversion}, \texttt{Derive Dependent Inversion}, \texttt{Derive} \\ {\tt Inversion\_clear} and \texttt{Derive Dependent Inversion\_clear} allow to generate inversion lemmas for given instances and sorts. Next section describes the tactic \texttt{Inversion}$\ldots$\texttt{using} that refines the goal with a specified inversion lemma. \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{Derive Inversion\_clear} \ident~ \texttt{with} $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{t})$ \texttt{Sort} \sort~ \\ \index{Derive Inversion_clear...with@{\tt Derive Inversion\_clear...with}} Let $I$ be an inductive predicate and $\vec{x}$ the variables occurring in $\vec{t}$. This command generates and stocks the inversion lemma for the sort \sort~ corresponding to the instance $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{t})$ with the name \ident~ in the {\bf global} environment. When applied it is equivalent to have inverted the instance with the tactic {\tt Inversion\_clear}. For example, to generate the inversion lemma for the instance \texttt{(Le (S n) m)} and the sort \texttt{Prop} we do: \begin{coq_example} Derive Inversion_clear leminv with (forall n m:nat, Le (S n) m) Sort Prop. \end{coq_example} Let us inspect the type of the generated lemma: \begin{coq_example} Check leminv. \end{coq_example} \end{itemize} %\variants %\begin{enumerate} %\item \verb+Derive Inversion_clear+ \ident$_1$ \ident$_2$ \\ %\index{Derive Inversion_clear@{\tt Derive Inversion\_clear}} % Let \ident$_1$ have type $(I~\vec{t})$ in the local context ($I$ % an inductive predicate).

In general, if we generate the inversion lemma with an instance $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{t})$ and a sort $s$, the inversion lemma will expect a predicate of type $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})s$ as first argument. \\ \begin{Variant} \item \texttt{Derive Inversion} \ident~ \texttt{with} $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{t})$ \texttt{Sort} \sort\\ \index{Derive Inversion...with@{\tt Derive Inversion...with}} Analogous of \texttt{Derive Inversion\_clear .. with ..} but when applied it is equivalent to having inverted the instance with the tactic \texttt{Inversion}. \end{Variant} \subsection{The dependent case} \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{Derive Dependent Inversion\_clear} \ident~ \texttt{with} $(\vec{x}:\vec{T})(I~\vec{t})$ \texttt{Sort} \sort~ \\ \index{Derive Dependent Inversion\_clear...with@{\tt Derive Dependent Inversion\_clear...with}} Let $I$ be an inductive predicate.

Its syntax follows the schema : \noindent {\tt Scheme {\ident$_1$} := Induction for \term$_1$ Sort {\sort$_1$} \\ with\\ \mbox{}\hspace{0.1cm} .. \\ with {\ident$_m$} := Induction for {\term$_m$} Sort {\sort$_m$}}\\ \term$_1$ \ldots \term$_m$ are different inductive types belonging to the same package of mutual inductive definitions. This command generates {\ident$_1$}\ldots{\ident$_m$} to be mutually recursive definitions. Each term {\ident$_i$} proves a general principle of mutual induction for objects in type {\term$_i$}. \Example The definition of principle of mutual induction for {\tt tree} and {\tt forest} over the sort {\tt Set} is defined by the command: \begin{coq_eval} Restore State "Initial". Variables A B : Set. Inductive tree : Set := node : A -> forest -> tree with forest : Set := | leaf : B -> forest | cons : tree -> forest -> forest. \end{coq_eval} \begin{coq_example*} Scheme tree_forest_rec := Induction for tree Sort Set with forest_tree_rec := Induction for forest Sort Set. \end{coq_example*} You may now look at the type of {\tt tree\_forest\_rec} : \begin{coq_example} Check tree_forest_rec. \end{coq_example} This principle involves two different predicates for {\tt trees} and {\tt forests}; it also has three premises each one corresponding to a constructor of one of the inductive definitions. The principle {\tt tree\_forest\_rec} shares exactly the same premises, only the conclusion now refers to the property of forests. \begin{coq_example} Check forest_tree_rec. \end{coq_example} \begin{Variant} \item {\tt Scheme {\ident$_1$} := Minimality for \term$_1$ Sort {\sort$_1$} \\ with\\ \mbox{}\hspace{0.1cm} .. \\ with {\ident$_m$} := Minimality for {\term$_m$} Sort {\sort$_m$}}\\ Same as before but defines a non-dependent elimination principle more natural in case of inductively defined relations. \end{Variant} \Example With the predicates {\tt odd} and {\tt even} inductively defined as: % \begin{coq_eval} % Restore State "Initial". % \end{coq_eval} \begin{coq_example*} Inductive odd : nat -> Prop := oddS : forall n:nat, even n -> odd (S n) with even : nat -> Prop := | evenO : even 0%N | evenS : forall n:nat, odd n -> even (S n). \end{coq_example*} The following command generates a powerful elimination principle: \begin{coq_example*} Scheme odd_even := Minimality for odd Sort Prop with even_odd := Minimality for even Sort Prop. \end{coq_example*} The type of {\tt odd\_even} for instance will be: \begin{coq_example} Check odd_even. \end{coq_example} The type of {\tt even\_odd} shares the same premises but the conclusion is {\tt (n:nat)(even n)->(Q n)}. \subsection[\tt Combined Scheme ...]{\tt Combined Scheme ...\index{CombinedScheme@{\tt Combined Scheme}}\label{CombinedScheme} \label{combinedscheme}} The {\tt Combined Scheme} command is a tool for combining induction principles generated by the {\tt Scheme} command. Its syntax follows the schema : \noindent {\tt Combined Scheme {\ident$_0$} from {\ident$_1$}, .., {\ident$_n$}}\\ \ident$_1$ \ldots \ident$_n$ are different inductive principles that must belong to the same package of mutual inductive principle definitions. This command generates {\ident$_0$} to be the conjunction of the principles: it is build from the common premises of the principles and concluded by the conjunction of their conclusions. For exemple, we can combine the induction principles for trees and forests: \begin{coq_example*} Combined Scheme tree_forest_mutind from tree_ind, forest_ind.
