Backward-chaining proof engine (certified SAT/CDCL, tactics, Socratic hints) plus the number-theory / cryptanalysis substrate (factoring, isogeny, lattice, order-finding)
Documentation
//! Shared proof-step vocabulary for the certified checkers.
//!
//! A refutation is an ordered stream of clause *additions*, each carrying a justification a
//! tiny independent checker can replay:
//!
//! - [`ProofStep::Rup`] — the clause follows by reverse unit propagation (the DRAT/RUP unit).
//! - [`ProofStep::Pr`] — the clause is **propagation-redundant** with an explicit [`Witness`]
//!   (Heule, Kiesl & Biere, *Short Proofs Without New Variables*, CADE 2017). This is the only
//!   form that can certify a *model-removing* addition — exactly what a symmetry-breaking
//!   predicate is — so it is the seam through which certified symmetry breaking flows.
//!
//! The witness may be an explicit partial [`Witness::Assignment`] or a literal
//! [`Witness::Substitution`] (a permutation / automorphism). The substitution form is mere
//! sugar: against a clause `C` whose falsifying assignment is `α = ¬C`, the substitution `σ`
//! denotes the assignment witness `ω = { ¬σ(l) : l ∈ C }` — the image of the "bad" corner of
//! the cube under the symmetry, which is the canonical PR witness for a lex-leader SBP. The
//! checker ([`crate::pr`]) reduces every substitution to that assignment, so there is a single
//! well-specified propagation-redundancy criterion to trust.
