We examine the relationship between the algebraic lambda-calculus, a fragment of the differential lambda-calculus and the linear-algebraic lambda-calculus, a candidate lambda-calculus for quantum computation. Both calculi are algebraic:…

Recent work has shown that a model's input word embeddings can serve as effective control variables for steering its behavior toward outputs that satisfy desired properties. However, this has only been demonstrated for pretrained…

We introduce a Curry-Howard correspondence for a large class of intermediate logics characterized by intuitionistic proofs with non-nested applications of rules for classical disjunctive tautologies (1-depth intermediate proofs). The…

We revisit the Vectorial Lambda Calculus, a typed version of Lineal. Vectorial (as well as Lineal) has been originally designed for quantum computing, as an extension to System F where linear combinations of lambda terms are also terms and…

We develop formal theories of conversion for Church-style lambda-terms with Pi-types in first-order syntax using one-sorted variables names and Stoughton's multiple substitutions. We then formalize the Pure Type Systems along some…

The existing call-by-need lambda calculi describe lazy evaluation via equational logics. A programmer can use these logics to safely ascertain whether one term is behaviorally equivalent to another or to determine the value of a lazy…

This work proposes a dependent type theory that combines functions and session-typed processes (with value dependencies) through a contextual monad, internalising typed processes in a dependently-typed lambda-calculus. The proposed…

Gradual typing is an approach to integrating static and dynamic typing within the same language, and puts the programmer in control of which regions of code are type checked at compile-time and which are type checked at run-time. In this…

In sequential functional languages, sized types enable termination checking of programs with complex patterns of recursion in the presence of mixed inductive-coinductive types. In this paper, we adapt sized types and their metatheory to the…

As is evident in the programming language literature, many practitioners favor specifying dynamic program behavior using big-step over small-step semantics. Unlike small-step semantics, which must dwell on every intermediate program state,…

Fitch-style modal deduction, in which modalities are eliminated by opening a subordinate proof, and introduced by shutting one, were investigated in the 1990s as a basis for lambda calculi. We show that such calculi have good computational…
