The Curry-Howard correspondence is often described as relating proofs (in intutionistic natural deduction) to programs (terms in simply-typed lambda calculus). However this narrative is hardly a perfect fit, due to the computational content…

Using appropriate notation systems for proofs, cut-reduction can often be rendered feasible on these notations, and explicit bounds can be given. Developing a suitable notation system for Bounded Arithmetic, and applying these bounds, all…

In this paper, we present a hypersequent calculus for bimodal logic GR, where the two modalities represent the arithmetic provability predicates of Goedel and Rosser, respectively. We prove the cut-elimination theorem for the calculus.

We consider an extension of bi-intuitionistic logic with the traditional modalities from tense logic Kt. Proof theoretically, this extension is obtained simply by extending an existing sequent calculus for bi-intuitionistic logic with…

We introduce proper display calculi for intuitionistic, bi-intuitionistic and classical linear logics with exponentials, which are sound, complete, conservative, and enjoy cut-elimination and subformula property. Based on the same design,…

Proof nets provide abstract counterparts to sequent proofs modulo rule permutations; the idea being that if two proofs have the same underlying proof-net, they are in essence the same proof. Providing a convincing proof-net counterpart to…

Just as conventional functional programs may be understood as proofs in an intuitionistic logic, so quantum processes can also be viewed as proofs in a suitable logic. We describe such a logic, the logic of compact closed categories and…

In this paper, we introduce two focussed sequent calculi, LKp(T) and LK+(T), that are based on Miller-Liang's LKF system for polarised classical logic. The novelty is that those sequent calculi integrate the possibility to call a decision…

In this paper we show that cut-free derivations in the epsilon format of sequent calculus provide for a non-elementary speed-up w.r.t. cut-free proofs in usual sequent calculi in first-order language.

We present a sequent calculus for the weak Grzegorczyk logic Go allowing non-well-founded proofs and obtain the cut-elimination theorem for it by constructing a continuous cut-elimination mapping acting on these proofs.

Tabled logic programming is receiving increasing attention in the Logic Programming community. It avoids many of the shortcomings of SLD execution and provides a more flexible and often extremely efficient execution mechanism for logic…

Herbrand's theorem is often presented as a corollary of Gentzen's sharpened Hauptsatz for the classical sequent calculus. However, the midsequent gives Herbrand's theorem directly only for formulae in prenex normal form. In the Handbook of…

Termination is an important and well-studied property for logic programs. However, almost all approaches for automated termination analysis focus on definite logic programs, whereas real-world Prolog programs typically use the cut operator.…

Full first order linear logic can be presented as an abstract logic programming language in Miller's system Forum, which yields a sensible operational interpretation in the 'proof search as computation' paradigm. However, Forum still has to…

In this project, a rather complete proof-theoretical formalization of Lambek Calculus (non-associative with arbitrary extensions) has been ported from Coq proof assistent to HOL4 theorem prover, with some improvements and new theorems.…

We present a sequent calculus for the Grzegorczyk modal logic Grz allowing cyclic and other non-well-founded proofs and obtain the cut-elimination theorem for it by constructing a continuous cut-elimination mapping acting on these proofs.…

Proof terms are syntactic expressions that represent computations in term rewriting. They were introduced by Meseguer and exploited by van Oostrom and de Vrijer to study equivalence of reductions in (left-linear) first-order term rewriting…

We extend the theoretical framework of proof mining by establishing general logical metatheorems that allow for the extraction of the computational content of theorems with prima facie "non-computational" proofs from probability theory,…

We investigate non-wellfounded proof systems based on parsimonious logic, a weaker variant of linear logic where the exponential modality ! is interpreted as a constructor for streams over finite data. Logical consistency is maintained at a…

We introduce the fastest known exact algorithm~for~the multiterminal cut problem with k terminals. In particular, we engineer existing as well as new data reduction rules. We use the rules within a branch-and-reduce framework and to boost…
