     1 Highest Priority
       
     2 ================
       
     3 
       
     4 - give examples for the new quantifier translations in regularization
       
     5   (quotient_term.ML)
       
     6 
       
     7 
       
     8 Higher Priority
       
     9 ===============
       
    10 
       
    11 - If the constant definition gives the wrong definition
       
    12   term, one gets a cryptic message about absrep_fun
       
    13 
       
    14 - Handle theorems that include Ball/Bex.
       
    15   Workaround: Unfolding Ball_def/Bex_def is enough to lift,
       
    16     in some cases regularization is harder though.
       
    17 
       
    18 - The user should be able to give quotient_respects and
       
    19   preserves theorems in a more natural form.
       
    20 
       
    21 - Provide syntax for different names of Abs and Rep functions
       
    22   in a similar way to typedef
       
    23 
       
    24     typedef (open) 'a dlist = "{xs::'a list. distinct xs}"
       
    25       morphisms list_of_dlist Abs_dlist
       
    26 
       
    27 - Allow defining constants with existing names.
       
    28     Since 'insert' is defined for sets,
       
    29     "quotient_definition insert" fails for fset
       
    30     however "definition" succeeds.
       
    31 
       
    32 Lower Priority
       
    33 ==============
       
    34 
       
    35 - the quot_lifted attribute should rename variables so they do not
       
    36   suggest that they talk about raw terms.
       
    37 
       
    38 - think about what happens if things go wrong (like
       
    39   theorem cannot be lifted) / proper diagnostic 
       
    40   messages for the user
       
    41 
       
    42 - inductions from the datatype package have a strange
       
    43   order of quantifiers in assumptions.
       
    44 
       
    45 - find clean ways how to write down the "mathematical"
       
    46   procedure for a possible submission (Peter submitted 
       
    47   his work only to TPHOLs 2005...we would have to go
       
    48   maybe for the Journal of Formalised Mathematics)
       
    49 
       
    50 - add tests for adding theorems to the various thm lists
       
    51 
       
    52 - Maybe quotient and equiv theorems like the ones for
       
    53   [QuotList, QuotOption, QuotPair...] could be automatically
       
    54   proven?
       
    55 
       
    56 - Examples: Finite multiset, Dlist.
       
    57 
       
    58 - The current syntax of the quotient_definition is
       
    59 
       
    60       "qconst :: qty"
       
    61       as "rconst"
       
    62 
       
    63   Is it possible to have the more Isabelle-like
       
    64   syntax
       
    65    
       
    66       qconst :: "qty"
       
    67       as "rconst"
       
    68 
       
    69   That means "qconst :: qty" is not read as a term, but
       
    70   as two entities.
