contents This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of proof-theoretic methods for establishing interpolation properties across a range of logics, including classical, intuitionistic, modal, and substructural logics. Central to the discussion are two foundational techniques: Maehara's method for Craig interpolation and Pitts' method for uniform interpolation. The chapter demonstrates how these methods lead to results on the existence of well-behaved proof systems in the contemporary framework of universal proof theory and how they provide a road map for constructing interpolation proofs using modern proof formalisms. The emphasis of the chapter is on constructive, modular, and syntax-driven techniques that illuminate deeper connections between interpolation properties and proof systems.
