Abstract
We provide techniques to integrate resolution logic with equality in type theory. The results may be rendered as follows: {\bf (1)}. A clausification procedure in type theory, equipped with a correctness proof, all encoded using higher-order primitive recursion. {\bf (2)}. A novel representation of clauses in minimal logic such that the $ \lambda $-representation of resolution steps is linear in the size of the premisses. {\bf (3)}. Availability of the power of resolution theorem provers in interactive proof construction systems based on type theory.
