Automated Theorem Proving
Automated Theorem Proving (ATP) is a field of artificial intelligence and mathematical logic dedicated to mechanically proving mathematical theorems in formal systems. Developed by John Robinson in 1965 with the resolution principle, ATP underpins modern verification tools like SAT/SMT solvers and is foundational to formal software verification, hardware validation, and mathematics.

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
This view does not invent a claim assessment when the ledger has none.
