Everyone knows that if you have a bivariant homology theory satisfying a base change formula, you get an representation of a category of correspondences. For theories in which the covariant and contravariant transfer maps are in mutual…
Monadic second order logic is the expansion of first order logic by quantifiers ranging over unary relations. We study the shared monadic second order theory of finite linear orders, i.e. the pseudofinite monadic second order theory of…
We give an introduction to logic tailored for algebraists, explaining how proofs in linear logic can be viewed as algorithms for constructing morphisms in symmetric closed monoidal categories with additional structure. This is made explicit…
Proofs of coherence in category theory, starting from Mac Lane's original proof of coherence for monoidal categories, are sometimes based on confluence techniques analogous to what one finds in the lambda calculus, or in term-rewriting…
These are the notes for a 5-lecture-course given at ESSLLI 2006 in Malaga, Spain. The URL of the school is http://esslli2006.lcc.uma.es/ . This version slightly differs from the one which has been distributed at the school because typos…
In this paper we explore a family of type isomorphisms in System F whose validity corresponds, semantically, to some form of the Yoneda isomorphism from category theory. These isomorphisms hold under theories of equivalence stronger than…
Differential Linear Logic enriches Linear Logic with additional logical rules for the exponential connectives, dual to the usual rules of dereliction, weakening and contraction. We present a proof-net syntax for Differential Linear Logic…
In this paper, we show how to interpret a language featuring concurrency, references and replication into proof nets, which correspond to a fragment of differential linear logic. We prove a simulation and adequacy theorem. A key element in…
We present a novel view that unifies two frameworks that aim to solve sequential prediction problems: learning to search (L2S) and recurrent neural networks (RNN). We point out equivalences between elements of the two frameworks. By…
We prove a few cases of a conjecture on the invariance of cohomological support loci under derived equivalence by establishing a concrete connection with the related problem of the invariance of Hodge numbers. We use the main case in order…
Multinets are certain configurations of lines and points with multiplicities in the complex projective plane P2. They are used in the studies of resonance and characteristic varieties of complex hyperplane arrangement complements and…
An alternative proof of Lie's approach for linearization of scalar second order ODEs is derived using the relationship between $\lambda$-symmetries and first integrals. This relation further leads to a new $\lambda$-symmetry linearization…
In this work we present a computation paradigm based on a concurrent and incremental construction of proof nets (de-sequentialized or graphical proofs) of the pure multiplicative and additive fragment of Linear Logic, a resources conscious…
We prove a coherence theorem for invertible objects in a symmetric monoidal category. This is used to deduce associativity, skew-commutativity, and related results for multi-graded morphism rings, generalizing the well-known versions for…
We introduce the notion of coherent graphs, and show how those can be used to define dynamic semantics for Multiplicative Linear Logic (MLL) extended with non-determinism. Thanks to the use of a coherence relation rather than mere formal…
This note is a survey on the basic aspects of moduli theory along with some examples. In that respect, one of the purposes of this current document is to understand how the introduction of stacks circumvents the non-representability problem…
In this paper, we study the linear complementarity problems on extended second order cones. We convert a linear complementarity problem on an extended second order cone into a mixed complementarity problem on the non-negative orthant. We…
We propose an automated procedure to prove polyhedral abstractions (also known as polyhedral reductions) for Petri nets. Polyhedral abstraction is a new type of state space equivalence, between Petri nets, based on the use of linear integer…
Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…
This paper presents proof nets for multiplicative-additive linear logic (MALL), called conflict nets. They are efficient, since both correctness and translation from a proof are p-time (polynomial time), and abstract, since they are…
