Abstract

Predicate intuitionistic logic is a well established fragment of dependent types. According to the Curry-Howard isomorphism proof construction in the logic corresponds well to synthesis of a program the type of which is a given formula. We present a model of automata that can handle proof construction in full intuitionistic first-order logic. The automata are constructed in such a way that any successful run corresponds directly to a normal proof in the logic. This makes it possible to discuss formal languages of proofs or programs, the closure properties of the automata and their connections with the traditional logical connectives.

Note that a variable is a quasi-long proper eliminator because all arguments is an empty set in this case.

The name Arcadian automata stems from the fact that a slightly different and weaker notion of Eden automata was developed before [10] to deal with the fragment of the first-order intuitionistic logic with \(\forall \) and \(\rightarrow \) and in which the universal quantifier occurs only on positive positions.
