Tutorial on [co]-inductive types in Coq (by Eduardo Gimenez and myself)

Hilbert's Epsilon operator and partial functions in Coq (V8.1)
The module ClassicalEpsilon of the new standard library (V8.1 beta)
allows us to use Hilbert's epsilon operator.
File Epsilon.v contains the definition of the
definite description operator iota, as well as some tactics for
dealing with descriptions and partial functions.
A small example is given, comparing partial
functions with some (total) implementations.

A3PAT Project (Assisting proof assistants)
This project is devoted to provide proof assistants with more automation:
automatic tools should provide the assistant with some trace
it will use to build a certified proof term.

Ordinal notations and rpo :
A contribution for Coq (8.1) ,
(joint work with Evelyne Contéjean
and Florian Hatat).
This development (work in progress !) includes:
- Proof of termination of the rpo with status
- Some results about Hilbert's epsilon operator
- An extension of the Ensembles library : denumerable sets
- Ordinal notations based on Cantor and Veblen normal forms
- Axiomatic definition of countable ordinals (after K. Schütte)
