The Naproche system: Proof-checking mathematical texts in controlled natural language

The Naproche system is a system for linguistically analysing and proof-checking mathematical texts written in a controlled natural language, i.e. a subset of the usual natural language of mathematical texts defined through a formal grammar. This paper gives an overview over the linguistic and logical techniques developed for the Naproche system. Special attention is given to the dynamic nature of quantification in natural language, to the phenomenon of implicit function introduction in mathematical texts, and to the usage of definitions for dynamically extending the language of a mathematical text
