Abstract
In this paper we compare two approaches to automated reasoning about metric and topology in the framework of the logic MT introduced in [10]. MT -formulas are built from set variablesp 1,p 2,... (for arbitrary subsets of a metric space) using the Booleans ∧, ∨, →, and ¬, the distance operators∃ < a and ∃ ≤ a , for a∈Q>0 , and the topological interior and closure operators I and C. Intended models for this logic are of the form I=(Δ,d,pI1,pI2,…) where (Δ,d) is a metric space and pIi⊆Δ . The extension φI⊆Δ of an MT -formula ϕ in I is defined inductively in the usual way, with I and C being interpreted as the interior and closure operators induced by the metric, and (∃<aφ)I={x∈Δ∣∃y∈φI d(x,y)<a} . In other words, (Iφ)I is the interior of φI , (∃<aφ)I is the open a-neighbourhood of φI , and (∃≤aφ)I is the closed one. A formula ϕ is satisfiable if there is a model I such that φI≠∅ ; ϕ is valid if ¬ϕ is not satisfiable.
