MBase: A Mathematical Knowledge Base
A Mathematical Knowledge Base
is a collection of mathematical facts, such as definitions, theorems, or proofs. It can serve as a shared background for various deduction services. Since it establishes a semantics for objects handled by such systems, it can serve as the necessary ``glue'' that binds these services together to a joint system. On the other hand, the formal representation allows semantics-based retrieval of distributed mathematical facts, giving mathematicians a tool to access and query the present mathematical knowledge.
The MBase System
is a web-based, distributed mathematical knowledge base. This system is realized as a mathematical service in the MathWeb system, an implementation of a mathematical software bus for distributed theorem proving. It offers a universal repository of formalized mathematics where the formal representation allows semantics-based retrieval of distributed mathematical facts.
