Instead of developing a customized typed lambda-calculus for each theory, we attempt to design a general parametric calculus that permits to express the proofs of any theory. This way, the problem of expressing proofs in the lambda-calculus…

Turner's bracket abstraction algorithm is perhaps the most well-known improvement on simple bracket abstraction algorithms. It is also one of the most studied bracket abstraction algorithms. The definition of the algorithm in Turner's…

The differential $\lambda$-calculus studies how the quantitative aspects of programs correspond to differentiation and to Taylor expansion inside models of linear logic. Recent work has generalized the axioms of Taylor expansion so they…

We present a polymorphic linear lambda-calculus as a proof language for second-order intuitionistic linear logic. The calculus includes addition and scalar multiplication, enabling the proof of a linearity result at the syntactic level.

This work exploits the logical foundation of session types to determine what kind of type discipline for the pi-calculus can exactly capture, and is captured by, lambda-calculus behaviours. Leveraging the proof theoretic content of the…

We survey the development and status quo of a subject best described as "generic representation theory of finite dimensional algebras", which started taking shape in the early 1980s. Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an…

Probabilistic operational semantics for a nondeterministic extension of pure lambda calculus is studied. In this semantics, a term evaluates to a (finite or infinite) distribution of values. Small-step and big-step semantics are both…

We study the interpretation of the lambda-calculus in a framework based on tropical mathematics, and we show that it provides a unifying framework for two well-developed quantitative approaches to program semantics: on the one hand program…

We introduce a category-theoreticabstraction of a syntax with auxiliary functions, called an admissiblemonad morphism. Relying on an abstract form of structural recursion,we then design generic tools to construct admissible monad…

In a previous publication, we introduced an abstract logic via an abstract notion of quantifier. Drawing upon concepts from categorical logic, this abstract logic interprets formulas from context as subobjects in a specific category, e.g.,…

In this paper, we deal with a calculus system SLCD (Syllogistic Logic with Carroll Diagrams), which gives a formal approach to logical reasoning with diagrams, for representations of the fundamental Aristotelian categorical propositions and…

We define a monoidal semantics for algebraic theories. The basis for the definition is provided by the analysis of the structural rules in the term calculus of algebraic languages. Models are described both explicitly, in a form that…

Taking an algebraic perspective on the basic structures of Rough Concept Analysis as the starting point, in this paper we introduce some varieties of lattices expanded with normal modal operators which can be regarded as the natural rough…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

We introduce sound and complete labelled sequent calculi for the basic normal non-distributive modal logic L and some of its axiomatic extensions, where the labels are atomic formulas of the first order language of enriched formal contexts,…

We define an extension of lambda-calculus with dependents types that enables us to encode transparent and opaque probabilistic programs and prove a strong normalisation result for it by a reducibility technique. While transparent…

We present the guarded lambda-calculus, an extension of the simply typed lambda-calculus with guarded recursive and coinductive types. The use of guarded recursive types ensures the productivity of well-typed programs. Guarded recursive…
