Calculi with control operators have been studied as extensions of simple type theory. Real programming languages contain datatypes, so to really understand control operators, one should also include these in the calculus. As a first step in…

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…

We propose an intersection type system for an imperative lambda-calculus based on a state monad and equipped with algebraic operations to read and write to the store. The system is derived by solving a suitable domain equation in the…

In this paper we invite the reader to a journey through three lambda calculi with resource control: the lambda calculus, the sequent lambda calculus, and the lambda calculus with explicit substitution. All three calculi enable explicit…

We present the syntax, semantics, and typing rules of Bull, a prototype theorem prover based on the Delta-Framework, i.e. a fully-typed lambda-calculus decorated with union and intersection types, as described in previous papers by the…

Working in a variant of the intersection type assignment system of Coppo, Dezani-Ciancaglini and Venneri [1981], we prove several facts about sets of terms having a given intersection type. Our main result is that every strongly normalizing…

We introduce an intersection type system for the lambda-mu calculus that is invariant under subject reduction and expansion. The system is obtained by describing Streicher and Reus's denotational model of continuations in the category of…

We present a Curry-style second-order type system with union and intersection types for the lambda-calculus with constructors of Arbiser, Miquel and Rios, an extension of lambda-calculus with a pattern matching mechanism for variadic…

We study an assignment system of intersection types for a lambda-calculus with records and a record-merge operator, where types are preserved both under subject reduction and expansion. The calculus is expressive enough to naturally…

Calculi with control operators have been studied to reason about control in programming languages and to interpret the computational content of classical proofs. To make these calculi into a real programming language, one should also…

We describe a type system for the linear-algebraic lambda-calculus. The type system accounts for the part of the language emulating linear operators and vectors, i.e. it is able to statically describe the linear combinations of terms…

We study a family of distributors-induced bicategorical models of lambda-calculus, proving that they can be syntactically presented via intersection type systems. We first introduce a class of 2-monads whose algebras are monoidal categories…

A type assignment system for lambda-calculus enjoys the principal typing property if every typable term M has a special typing, called principal, from which all typings for M can be obtained via suitable operations. The existence of…

We introduce a simple extension of the $\lambda$-calculus with pairs---called the distributive $\lambda$-calculus---obtained by adding a computational interpretation of the valid distributivity isomorphism $A \Rightarrow (B\wedge C)\ \…

This paper investigates type isomorphism in a lambda-calculus with intersection and union types. It is known that in lambda-calculus, the isomorphism between two types is realised by a pair of terms inverse one each other. Notably,…
