(*
text {* The following presentation will use notation of
  Isabelle's meta logic, hence a few sentences to explain this.
  The logical
  primitives are universal quantification (@{text "⋀"}), entailment
  (@{text "⟹"}) and equality (@{text "≡"}).  Variables (not bound
  variables) are sometimes preceded by a question mark.  The logic is
  typed.  Type variables are denoted by~@{text "'a"},~@{text "'b"}
  etc., and~@{text "⇒"} is the function type.  Double brackets~@{text
  "⟦"} and~@{text "⟧"} are used to abbreviate nested entailment.

section ‹Introduction›

text ‹
  Locales are based on contexts.  A \emph{context} can be seen as a
  formula schema
\[
  ⋀x1…xn. ⟦ A1; … ;Am ⟧ ⟹ …›
\]
  where the variables~x1, \ldots,~xn are called
  \emph{parameters} and the premises $A1, \ldots,~Am$ \emph{assumptions}.  A formula~C›
  is a \emph{theorem} in the context if it is a conclusion
\[
  ⋀x1…xn. ⟦ A1; … ;Am ⟧ ⟹ C›.
\]
  Isabelle/Isar's notion of context goes beyond this logical view.
  Its contexts record, in a consecutive order, proved
  conclusions along with \emph{attributes}, which can provide context
  specific configuration information for proof procedures and concrete
  syntax.  From a logical perspective, locales are just contexts that
  have been made persistent.  To the user, though, they provide
  powerful means for declaring and combining contexts, and for the
  reuse of theorems proved in these contexts.

section ‹Simple Locales›

text ‹
  In its simplest form, a
  \emph{locale declaration} consists of a sequence of context elements
  declaring parameters (keyword \isakeyword{fixes}) and assumptions
  (keyword \isakeyword{assumes}).  The following is the specification of
  partial orders, as locale partial_order›.
›

  locale partial_order =
    fixes le :: "'a  'a  bool" (infixl "" 50)
    assumes refl [intro, simp]: "x  x"
      and anti_sym [intro]: " x  y; y  x   x = y"
      and trans [trans]: " x  y; y  z   x  z"

text (in partial_order) ‹The parameter of this locale is~le›,
  which is a binary predicate with infix syntax~⊑›.  The
  parameter syntax is available in the subsequent
  assumptions, which are the familiar partial order axioms.

  Isabelle recognises unbound names as free variables.  In locale
  assumptions, these are implicitly universally quantified.  That is,
  term x  y; y  z   x  z in fact means
  termx y z.  x  y; y  z   x  z.

  Two commands are provided to inspect locales:
  \isakeyword{print\_locales} lists the names of all locales of the
  current theory; \isakeyword{print\_locale}~$n$ prints the parameters
  and assumptions of locale $n$; the variation \isakeyword{print\_locale!}~$n$
  additionally outputs the conclusions that are stored in the locale.
  We may inspect the new locale
  by issuing \isakeyword{print\_locale!} termpartial_order.  The output
  is the following list of context elements.
\begin{small}
\begin{alltt}
  \isakeyword{fixes} le :: "'a \(\Rightarrow\) 'a \(\Rightarrow\)  bool" (\isakeyword{infixl} "\(\sqsubseteq\)" 50)
  \isakeyword{assumes} "partial_order (\(\sqsubseteq\))"
  \isakeyword{notes} assumption
    refl [intro, simp] = `?x \(\sqsubseteq\) ?x`
    \isakeyword{and}
    anti_sym [intro] = `\(\isasymlbrakk\)?x \(\sqsubseteq\) ?y; ?y \(\sqsubseteq\) ?x\(\isasymrbrakk\) \(\Longrightarrow\) ?x = ?y`
    \isakeyword{and}
    trans [trans] = `\(\isasymlbrakk\)?x \(\sqsubseteq\) ?y; ?y \(\sqsubseteq\) ?z\(\isasymrbrakk\) \(\Longrightarrow\) ?x \(\sqsubseteq\) ?z`
\end{alltt}
\end{small}

  This differs from the declaration.  The assumptions have turned into
  conclusions, denoted by the keyword \isakeyword{notes}.  Also,
  there is only one assumption, namely termpartial_order le.
  The locale declaration has introduced the predicate termpartial_order to the theory.  This predicate is the
  \emph{locale predicate}.  Its definition may be inspected by
  issuing \isakeyword{thm} @{thm [source] partial_order_def}.
  @{thm [display, indent=2] partial_order_def}
  In our example, this is a unary predicate over the parameter of the
  locale.  It is equivalent to the original assumptions, which have
  been turned into conclusions and are
  available as theorems in the context of the locale.  The names and
  attributes from the locale declaration are associated to these
  theorems and are effective in the context of the locale.

  Each conclusion has a \emph{foundational theorem} as counterpart
  in the theory.  Technically, this is simply the theorem composed
  of context and conclusion.  For the transitivity theorem, this is
  @{thm [source] partial_order.trans}:
  @{thm [display, indent=2] partial_order.trans}

subsection ‹Targets: Extending Locales›

text ‹
  The specification of a locale is fixed, but its list of conclusions
  may be extended through Isar commands that take a \emph{target} argument.
  In the following, \isakeyword{definition} and 
  \isakeyword{theorem} are illustrated.
  Table~\ref{tab:commands-with-target} lists Isar commands that accept
  a target.  Isar provides various ways of specifying the target.  A
  target for a single command may be indicated with keyword
  \isakeyword{in} in the following way:

\begin{table}
\hrule
\vspace{2ex}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{ll}
  \isakeyword{definition} & definition through an equation \\
  \isakeyword{inductive} & inductive definition \\
  \isakeyword{primrec} & primitive recursion \\
  \isakeyword{fun}, \isakeyword{function} & general recursion \\
  \isakeyword{abbreviation} & syntactic abbreviation \\
  \isakeyword{theorem}, etc.\ & theorem statement with proof \\
  \isakeyword{theorems}, etc.\ & redeclaration of theorems \\
  \isakeyword{text}, etc.\ & document markup
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\hrule
\caption{Isar commands that accept a target.}
\label{tab:commands-with-target}
\end{table}

  definition (in partial_order)
    less :: "'a  'a  bool" (infixl "" 50)
    where "(x  y) = (x  y  x  y)"

text (in partial_order) ‹The strict order less› with infix
  syntax~⊏› is
  defined in terms of the locale parameter~le› and the general
  equality of the object logic we work in.  The definition generates a
  \emph{foundational constant}
  termpartial_order.less with definition @{thm [source]
  partial_order.less_def}:
  @{thm [display, indent=2] partial_order.less_def}
  At the same time, the locale is extended by syntax transformations
  hiding this construction in the context of the locale.  Here, the
  abbreviation less› is available for
  partial_order.less le›, and it is printed
  and parsed as infix~⊏›.  Finally, the conclusion @{thm [source]
  less_def} is added to the locale:
  @{thm [display, indent=2] less_def}

text ‹The treatment of theorem statements is more straightforward.
  As an example, here is the derivation of a transitivity law for the
  strict order relation.›

  lemma (in partial_order) less_le_trans [trans]:
    " x  y; y  z   x  z"
    unfolding %visible less_def by %visible (blast intro: trans)

text ‹In the context of the proof, conclusions of the
  locale may be used like theorems.  Attributes are effective: anti_sym› was
  declared as introduction rule, hence it is in the context's set of
  rules used by the classical reasoner by default.›

subsection ‹Context Blocks›

text ‹When working with locales, sequences of commands with the same
  target are frequent.  A block of commands, delimited by
  \isakeyword{begin} and \isakeyword{end}, makes a theory-like style
  of working possible.  All commands inside the block refer to the
  same target.  A block may immediately follow a locale
  declaration, which makes that locale the target.  Alternatively the
  target for a block may be given with the \isakeyword{context}
  command.

  This style of working is illustrated in the block below, where
  notions of infimum and supremum for partial orders are introduced,
  together with theorems about their uniqueness.›

section ‹Changing the Locale Hierarchy
  \label{sec:changing-the-hierarchy}›

  Locales enable to prove theorems abstractly, relative to
  sets of assumptions.  These theorems can then be used in other
  contexts where the assumptions themselves, or
  instances of the assumptions, are theorems.  This form of theorem
  reuse is called \emph{interpretation}.  Locales generalise
  interpretation from theorems to conclusions, enabling the reuse of
  definitions and other constructs that are not part of the
  specifications of the locales.

  The first form of interpretation we will consider in this tutorial
  is provided by the \isakeyword{sublocale} command.  It enables to
  modify the import hierarchy to reflect the \emph{logical} relation
  between locales.

  Consider the locale hierarchy from Figure~\ref{fig:lattices}(a).
  Total orders are lattices, although this is not reflected here, and
  definitions, theorems and other conclusions
  from termlattice are not available in termtotal_order.  To
  obtain the situation in Figure~\ref{fig:lattices}(b), it is
  sufficient to add the conclusions of the latter locale to the former.
  The \isakeyword{sublocale} command does exactly this.
  The declaration \isakeyword{sublocale} $l_1
  \subseteq l_2$ causes locale $l_2$ to be \emph{interpreted} in the
  context of $l_1$.  This means that all conclusions of $l_2$ are made
  available in $l_1$.

  Of course, the change of hierarchy must be supported by a theorem
  that reflects, in our example, that total orders are indeed
  lattices.  Therefore the \isakeyword{sublocale} command generates a
  goal, which must be discharged by the user.  This is illustrated in
  the following paragraphs.  First the sublocale relation is stated.

  This enters the context of locale total_order›, in
  which the goal @{subgoals [display]} must be shown.
  Now the
  locale predicate needs to be unfolded --- for example, using its
  definition or by introduction rules
  provided by the locale package.  For automation, the locale package
  provides the methods intro_locales› and unfold_locales›.  They are aware of the
  current context and dependencies between locales and automatically
  discharge goals implied by these.  While unfold_locales›
  always unfolds locale predicates to assumptions, intro_locales› only unfolds definitions along the locale
  hierarchy, leaving a goal consisting of predicates defined by the
  locale package.  Occasionally the latter is of advantage since the goal
  is smaller.

  For the current goal, we would like to get hold of
  the assumptions of lattice›, which need to be shown, hence
  unfold_locales› is appropriate.›

  proof unfold_locales

txt ‹\normalsize
  Since the fact that both lattices and total orders are partial
  orders is already reflected in the locale hierarchy, the assumptions
  of partial_order› are discharged automatically, and only the
  assumptions introduced in lattice› remain as subgoals
  @{subgoals [display]}
  The proof for the first subgoal is obtained by constructing an
  infimum, whose existence is implied by totality.›

    fix x y
    from total have "is_inf x y (if x  y then x else y)"
      by (auto simp: is_inf_def)

  Locale interpretation is \emph{dynamic}.  The statement
  \isakeyword{sublocale} $l_1 \subseteq l_2$ will not just add the
  current conclusions of $l_2$ to $l_1$.  Rather the dependency is
  stored, and conclusions that will be
  added to $l_2$ in future are automatically propagated to $l_1$.
  The sublocale relation is transitive --- that is, propagation takes
  effect along chains of sublocales.  Even cycles in the sublocale relation are
  supported, as long as these cycles do not lead to infinite chains.
  Details are discussed in the technical report citeBallarin2006a.
  See also Section~\ref{sec:infinite-chains} of this tutorial.›
