Dear Viorel, Those goals involving a lot of nonlinear arithmetic are giving trouble to SMT solvers. I could not verify your two goals on my machine either, even without importing set.Set.
You might be interested in this paper by Guillaume and Raphaël. It precisely describes a technique to solve such nonlinear arithmetic goals in Why3: https://www.lri.fr/~melquion/doc/18-ijcar-article.pdf Best regards, -- Jean-Christophe On 01/01/2021 09:14 PM, Viorel Preoteasa wrote: > Hello, > > I have the following theory: > > theory TestPower > use real.RealInfix > use real.PowerInt > use real.Square > (* > use set.Set > *) > constant _a: real > constant _b: real > > goal task6: > (((power (_a +. _b) 6)) = > ((((((((power _a 6) > +.
