DESCRIPTION:Although people have sought to integrate computer algebra with
  theorem proving since the 1990s\, none of today’s proof assistants clai
 m to offer such an integration. However\, Isabelle is capable of some basi
 c computer algebra tasks\, including symbolic differentiation (and hence s
 ymbolic integration via the FTC)\, deductive limit finding and exact arbit
 rary-precision real arithmetic. These facilities will be presented alongsi
 de their application to formalising last year’s celebrated result of an 
 exponentially improved upper bound for Ramsey numbers.\n\nSlides: https://
