    ABSTRACT:: Program synthesis is the systematic derivation of a program
               from a given specification. A deductive approach to program
               synthesis is presented for the construction of recursive
               programs. This approach regards program synthesis as a
               theorem-proving task and relies on a theorem-proving method
               that combines the features of transformation rules,
               unification, and mathematical induction within a single
               framework.
