Abstract

Levy-Longo Trees and Bohm Trees are the best known tree structures on the {\lambda}-calculus. We give general conditions under which an encoding of the {\lambda}-calculus into the {\pi}-calculus is sound and complete with respect to such trees. We apply these conditions to various encodings of the call-by-name {\lambda}-calculus, showing how the two kinds of tree can be obtained by varying the behavioural equivalence adopted in the {\pi}-calculus and/or the encoding.
