This improves Lean’s capabilities to guess the termination measure for
well-founded
recursion, by also trying lexicographic orders. For example:
def ackermann (n m : Nat) := match n, m with
| 0, m => m + 1
| .succ n, 0 => ackermann n 1
| .succ n, .succ m => ackermann n (ackermann (n + 1) m)
now just works.
The module docstring of `Lean.Elab.PreDefinition.WF.GuessLex` tells the
technical story.

A “tricky” example from “Finding Lexicographic Orders for Termination Proofs in
|
|
Isabelle/HOL” by Lukas Bulwahn, Alexander Krauss, and Tobias Nipkow,
|
|
10.1007/978-3-540-74591-4_5
|
|
|
|
At the time of writing, Lean is able to find the lexicographic order
|
|
just fine, but only if the tactic is powerful enough. In partiuclar,
|
|
the default `decreasing_tactic` can only handle lexicographic descend when either
|
|
the left gets smaller, or the left stays equal and the right gets smaller.
|
|
But here we need to allow the general form, where the left is ≤ and the right
|
|
gets smaller. This needs a backtracking proof search, it seems, which we build here
|
|
(`search_lex`).
