Abstract:
We introduce a framework for graphical security proofs in device-independent quantum cryptography using the methods of categorical quantum mechanics. We are optimistic that this approach will make some of the highly complex proofs in quantum cryptography more accessible, facilitate the discovery of new proofs, and enable automated proof verification. As an example of our framework, we reprove a previous result from device-independent quantum cryptography: any linear randomness expansion protocol can be converted into an unbounded randomness expansion protocol. We give a graphical proof of this

Abstract:
A classical mathematical proof is constructed using pencil and paper. However, there are many ways in which computers may be used in a mathematical proof. But ‘proof by computer’, or even the use of computers in the course of a proof, is not so readily accepted (the December 2008 issue of the Notices of the American Mathematical Society is devoted to formal proofs by computer).In the following we introduce verification methods and discuss how they can assist in achieving a mathematically rigorous result. In particular we emphasize how floating-point arithmetic is used.

Abstract:
Ideas and techniques from standard and nonstandard theories of measure spaces and Banach spaces are brought together to give a new approach to the study of the extension of vector measures. Applications of our results lead to simple new proofs for theorems of classical measure theory. The novelty lies in the use of the principle of extension by continuity (for which we give a nonstandard proof) to obtain in an unified way some notable theorems which have been obtained by Fox, Brooks, Ohba, Diestel, and others. The methods of proof are quite different from those used by previous authors, and mo

In his work on a proof of Grushko's theorem by groupoid methods, Philip Higgins proved the following subgroup theorem.Theorem. Suppose that θ:G → B is a surjective map of groups, where G and B are free products and , and where θ(Gλ) = Bλ for each λ. Let H be a subgroup of G with the property that the restriction of θ to H is surjective. Then there is a free decomposition of H with θ(Hλ) = Bλ for each λ.As Higgins has noted, there is a common strategy in the proff of this theorem and in the groupoid proofs of Kurosh and Neilsen-Schreier subgroup theorems.

Abstract:
Formal methods play a significant and increasing role in hardware verification, but their effectiveness can be impaired by the ac hoc nature of mainstream hardware languages such as VHDL, Verilog and SystemC, which have convoluted semantics that often necessitate contrived proof techniques. This dissertation investigates the application of formal reasoning to hardware architectures expressed in an alternative class of semantically elegant languages, which support efficient design, whilst also having been developed with proof techniques in mind.

In this thesis we develop efficient methods for automated proof search within an important class of mathematical logics. The logics considered are the varying, cumulative and constant domain versions of the first-order modal logics K, K4, D, D4, T, S4 and S5, and first-order intuitionistic logic. The use of these non-classical logics is commonplace within Computing Science and Artificial Intelligence in applications in which efficient machine assisted proof search is essential.

Abstract:
Drawing on Douglas Walton’s typology of dialogues, I analyse a representative sample of philosophical dialogues, finding that over 95% of them instantiate a type of dialogue aimed at persuading one’s opponent. I then argue that this goal entails the prudential requirement that any assertion questioned in philosophical dialogue be either supported or else retracted, and that no assertion is privileged over the burden of proof imposed by its questioning. This in turn renders it prudent to avoid the employment of premises that, if questioned, could never be supported. Such unsupportable premises

The work of this thesis is in the area of proof complexity, an area which looks to uncover the limitations of proof systems. In this thesis we investigate the rank complexity of tautologies for several of the most important proof systems based on integer linear programming methods. The three main contributions of this thesis are as follows: Firstly we develop the first rank lower bounds for the proof system based on the Sherali-Adams operator and show that both the Pigeonhole and Least Number Principles require linear rank in this system.
