Abstract
We describe the theorem prover DCTP, which is an implementation of the disconnection tableau calculus, a confluent tableau method, in which free variables are treated in a non-rigid manner. In contrast to most other free-variable tableau variants, the system can also be used for model generation. We sketch the underlying calculus and its refinements, and present the results of an experimental evaluation.
