Towards Automated Discovery of Geometrical Theorems in GeoGebra

Abstract: We describe a prototype of a new experimental GeoGebra command and tool Discover that analyzes geometric figures for salient patterns, properties, and theorems. This tool is a basic implementation of automated discovery in elementary planar geometry. The paper focuses on the mathematical background of the implementation, as well as methods to avoid combinatorial explosion when storing the interesting properties of a geometric figure.
