In arXiv: math.LO/0011208 we proposed the {\sl intuitionistic or disjunctive representation of quantum logic}, i.e., a representation of the property lattice of physical systems as a complete Heyting algebra of logical propositions on these…

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…

We show how categorial deduction can be implemented in higher-order (linear) logic programming, thereby realising parsing as deduction for the associative and non-associative Lambek calculi. This provides a method of solution to the parsing…

We investigate an unsuspected connection between logical connectives with non-harmonious deduction rules, such as Prior's tonk, and quantum computing. We argue that these connectives model the information-erasure, the non-reversibility, and…

This short note presents a new formal language, lambda dependency-based compositional semantics (lambda DCS) for representing logical forms in semantic parsing. By eliminating variables and making existential quantification implicit, lambda…

In this paper we present two flavors of a quantum extension to the lambda calculus. The first one, $\lambda_\rho$, follows the approach of classical control/quantum data, where the quantum data is represented by density matrices. We provide…
