Nuprl Lemma : append_is_nil_test

∀[a,b:Top List].
  ((([] = (a @ b) ∈ (Top List)) ∨ ((a @ b) = [] ∈ (Top List))) ⇒ ((b = [] ∈ (Top List)) ∧ (a = [] ∈ (Top List))))


Proof




Definitions occuring in Statement :  append: as @ bs,  nil: [],  list: T List,  uall: ∀[x:A]. B[x],  top: Top,  implies: P ⇒ Q,  or: P ∨ Q,  and: P ∧ Q,  equal: s = t ∈ T
Definitions unfolded in proof :  uall: ∀[x:A]. B[x],  member: t ∈ T,  implies: P ⇒ Q,  and: P ∧ Q,  cand: A c∧ B,  or: P ∨ Q,  uiff: uiff(P;Q),  uimplies: b supposing a,  prop: ℙ
