Reformalization of the Jordan Curve Theorem
Abstract
We present a case study in reformalization, a variant of autoformalization in which the input proof is not natural language but a formal development in a different proof assistant. Concretely, we report three reformalizations of the Jordan Curve Theorem: from Mizar to Lean, from HOL Light to Lean, and from HOL Light to Agda. We analyse the results and identify pipeline design choices that matter for practical reformalization tasks.
