We present a calculus providing a Curry-Howard correspondence to classical logic represented in the sequent calculus with explicit structural rules, namely weakening and contraction. These structural rules introduce explicit erasure and…
We present a novel lambda calculus that casts the categorical approach to the study of quantum protocols into the rich and well established tradition of type theory. Our construction extends the linear typed lambda calculus with a linear…
Parametricity allows the transfer of proofs between different implementations of the same data structure. The lambdaPi-calculus modulo theory is an extension of the lambda-calculus with dependent types and user-defined rewrite rules. It is…
Dedukti is a type-checker for the $\lambda$$\Pi$-calculus modulo rewriting, an extension of Edinburgh's logicalframework LF where functions and type symbols can be defined by rewrite rules. It thereforecontains an engine for rewriting LF…
In this work we study randomised reduction strategies,a notion already known in the context of abstract reduction systems, for the $\lambda$-calculus. We develop a simple framework that allows us to prove a randomised strategy to be…
We observe that normalization by evaluation for simply-typed lambda-calculus with weak coproducts can be carried out in a weak bi-cartesian closed category of presheaves equipped with a monad that allows us to perform case distinction on…
In this article we show that hybrid type-logical grammars are a fragment of first-order linear logic. This embedding result has several important consequences: it not only provides a simple new proof theory for the calculus, thereby…
Refinement types sharpen systems of simple and dependent types by offering expressive means to more precisely classify well-typed terms. We present a system of refinement types for LF in the style of recent formulations where only canonical…
We answer Klop and de Vrijer's question whether adding surjective-pairing axioms to the extensional lambda calculus yields a conservative extension. The answer is positive. As a byproduct we obtain a "syntactic" proof that the extensional…
Dedukti is a Logical Framework based on the $\lambda$$\Pi$-Calculus Modulo Theory. We show that many theories can be expressed in Dedukti: constructive and classical predicate logic, Simple type theory, programming languages, Pure type…
We prove the strong normalization of full classical natural deduction (i.e. with conjunction, disjunction and permutative conversions) by using a translation into the simply typed lambda-mu-calculus. We also extend Mendler's result on…
The main novelty of this paper is to consider an extension of the Calculus of Constructions where predicates can be defined with a general form of rewrite rules. We prove the strong normalization of the reduction relation generated by the…
A class of models is presented, in the form of continuation monads polymorphic for first-order individuals, that is sound and complete for minimal intuitionistic predicate logic. The proofs of soundness and completeness are constructive and…
We prove that orthogonal constructor term rewrite systems and lambda-calculus with weak (i.e., no reduction is allowed under the scope of a lambda-abstraction) call-by-value reduction can simulate each other with a linear overhead. In…
The Stratified Foundations are a restriction of naive set theory where the comprehension scheme is restricted to stratifiable propositions. It is known that this theory is consistent and that proofs strongly normalize in this theory.…
We present a graded modal type theory, a dependent type theory with grades that can be used to enforce various properties of the code. The theory has $\Pi$-types, weak and strong $\Sigma$-types, natural numbers, an empty type, and a…
Fair termination is the property of programs that may diverge "in principle" but that terminate "in practice", i.e. under suitable fairness assumptions concerning the resolution of non-deterministic choices. We study a conservative…
We define a bi-directional embedding between hypersequent calculi and a subclass of systems of rules (2-systems). In addition to showing that the two proof frameworks have the same expressive power, the embedding allows for the recovery of…
We propose an unsupervised neural model for learning a discrete embedding of words. Unlike existing discrete embeddings, our binary embedding supports vector arithmetic operations similar to continuous embeddings. Our embedding represents…
It is well-known that intersection type assignment systems can be used to characterize strong normalization (SN). Typical proofs that typable lambda-terms are SN in these systems rely on semantical techniques. In this work, we study…
