Transitivity Lemmas

 

Transitivity lemmas give transitivity information for rewrite relations. They are used to construct the tactic justification in the ANDTHENC conversional.

Transitivity lemmas should be of form:

where and . For now there is a restriction that should be the weaker of and .

ANDTHENC finds transitivity lemmas in the library by assuming that a naming convention has been followed. The lemmas must be named opid-of- _transitivity_ index,  where the _ index is optional, and is only needed to distinguish lemmas if there is more than one for a given . A transitivity lemma is not needed for equality.
