Description
The translator works on recursive functions that recurse as an argument to MAP (and maybe some other simple functions), but in general recursion as an argument to a higher-order function makes the translator fail when attempting to prove the certificate theorem using the induction theorem. A solution to the problem will probably require a more general form of certificate theorems (in particular, allowing arbitrary preconditions on arguments).
