There are two approaches to increasing the number of results in these cases: \begin{itemize} \item We can preprocess theories, by e.g. normalizing expressions, eliminating higher-order abstract syntax encodings or encoding-related redundant information (such as the type of a typed equality, which in the presence of subtyping can be different from the types of both sides of an equation), or elaborating abbreviations/definitions. - \item In many instances, the translations between two foundations is too complex to be discovered purely syntactically. In these cases we can provide arbitrary translations between theories, which are applied before computing the encoding.\ednote{Mention/cite alignment paper} + \item In many instances, the translations between two foundations is too complex to be discovered purely syntactically. In these cases we can provide arbitrary translations between theories, which are applied before computing the encoding.\ednote{Mention/cite alignment-translation paper} \end{itemize} When elaborating definitions, it is important to consider that this may also reduce the number of results, if both theories use similar abbreviations for complex terms, or the same concept is declared axiomatically in one theory, but definitionally in the other. For that reason, we can allow several encodings for the same constant during preprocessing, such as one with definitions expanded and one ``as is''. -- GitLab
