A basic technique in model theory is to name the elements of a model by introducing new constant symbols. We describe the analogous construction in the language of syntactic categories/ sites. As an application we identify…
We consider the Lambek calculus, or non-commutative multiplicative intuitionistic linear logic, extended with iteration, or Kleene star, axiomatised by means of an $\omega$-rule, and prove that the derivability problem in this calculus is…
The categorical models of the differential lambda-calculus are additive categories because of the Leibniz rule which requires the summation of two expressions. This means that, as far as the differential lambda-calculus and differential…
A category used by de Paiva to model linear logic also occurs in Vojtas's analysis of cardinal characteristics of the continuum. Its morphisms have been used in describing reductions between search problems in complexity theory. We describe…
In this paper we use infinitary Turing machines with tapes of length $\kappa$ and which run for time $\kappa$ as presented, e.g., by Koepke \& Seyfferth, to generalise the notion of type two computability to $2^{\kappa}$, where $\kappa$ is…
We investigate language interpretations of two extensions of the Lambek calculus: with additive conjunction and disjunction and with additive conjunction and the unit constant. For extensions with additive connectives, we show that…
In this work we provide alternative formulations of the concepts of lambda theory and extensional theory without introducing the notion of substitution and the sets of all, free and bound variables occurring in a term. We also clarify the…
A comparison of Landin's form of lambda calculus with Church's shows that, independently of the lambda calculus, there exists a mechanism for converting functions with arguments indexed by variables to the usual kind of function where the…
This paper shows connections between command injection attacks, continuations, and the Lambek calculus: certain command injections, such as the tautology attack on SQL, are shown to be a form of control effect that can be typed using the…
Although unification can be used to implement a weak form of $\beta$-reduction, several linguistic phenomena are better handled by using some form of $\lambda$-calculus. In this paper we present a higher order feature description calculus…
We develop a vector space semantics for verb phrase ellipsis with anaphora using type-driven compositional distributional semantics based on the Lambek calculus with limited contraction (LCC) of J\"ager (2006). Distributional semantics has…
In this paper, we show how a construction of an implicit complexity model can be implemented using concepts coming from the core of von Neumann algebras. Namely, our aim is to gain an understanding of classical computation in terms of the…
In this paper, we consider the polymodal version of Lambek calculus with subexponential modalities initially introduced by Kanovich, Kuznetsov, Nigam, and Scedrov and its quantale semantics. In our approach, subexponential modalities have…
Canonical models are of central importance in modal logic, in particular as they witness strong completeness and hence compactness. While the canonical model construction is well understood for Kripke semantics, non-normal modal logics…
Let $\Bbbk$ be a commutative ring and $I$ a category. As a generalization of a $\Bbbk$-category with a (pseudo) action of a group we consider a family of $\Bbbk$-categories with a (pseudo, lax, or oplax) action of $I$, namely an oplax…
We introduce proper display calculi for basic monotonic modal logic, the conditional logic CK and a number of their axiomatic extensions. These calculi are sound, complete, conservative and enjoy cut elimination and subformula property. Our…
Many calculi exist for modelling various features of object-oriented languages. Many of them are based on $\lambda$-calculus and focus either on statically typed class-based languages or dynamic prototype-based languages. We formalize…
We give labeled natural deduction systems for a family of tense logics extending the basic linear tense logic Kl. We prove that our systems are sound and complete with respect to the usual Kripke semantics, and that they possess a number of…
We introduce the family of axioms, denoted $\operatorname{Slice}_\kappa$, that claim the existence of strictly increasing decompositions of the form $$2^{\delta}=\bigcup_{\alpha<\kappa} 2^{\delta}\cap M_\alpha,$$ where $\delta<\kappa$, and…
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…
