This paper concerns the development of metatheory for extensible languages. It uses as its starting point a view that programming languages tailored to specific application domains are to be constructed by composing components from an open…

In the setting of modern mathematical logic and model theory, classification theory has been one of the landmark achievements of the field. Likewise, the classification of UHF-algebras and AF-algebras were substantial contributions to the…

The notion of a firmly nonexpansive mapping is central in fixed point theory because of attractive convergence properties for iterates and the correspondence with maximal monotone operators due to Minty. In this paper, we systematically…

As part of the author's studies on equational reasoning for monadic programs, this report focus on non-determinism monad. We discuss what properties this monad should satisfy, what additional operators and notations can be introduced to…

Modal logics are widely used in multi-agent systems to reason about actions, abilities, norms, or epistemic states. Combined with description logic languages, they are also a powerful tool to formalise modal aspects of ontology-based…

We see how nested sequents, a natural generalisation of hypersequents, allow us to develop a systematic proof theory for modal logics. As opposed to other prominent formalisms, such as the display calculus and labelled sequents, nested…

Part of the theory of logic programming and nonmonotonic reasoning concerns the study of fixed-point semantics for these paradigms. Several different semantics have been proposed during the last two decades, and some have been more…

We introduce an extension of first-order logic that comes equipped with additional predicates for reasoning about an abstract state. Sequents in the logic comprise a main formula together with pre- and postconditions in the style of Hoare…

In this paper we introduce a very general setting dealing with the superposition of operators of any positive order and provide a systematic study of them. We also provide examples and counterexamples, as well as characterizing properties…

Combining neural networks with continuous logic and multicriteria decision making tools can reduce the black box nature of neural models. In this study, we show that nilpotent logical systems offer an appropriate mathematical framework for…

We present an extension to the $\mathtt{mathlib}$ library of the Lean theorem prover formalizing the foundations of computability theory. We use primitive recursive functions and partial recursive functions as the main objects of study, and…

New perspectives, proofs, and some extensions of known results are presented concerning the behavior of the Fitzpatrick function of a monotone type operator in the general context of a locally convex space.

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…

We consider the problem of formalizing the familiar notion of widening in abstract interpretation in higher-order logic. It turns out that many axioms of widening (e.g. widening sequences are ascending) are not useful for proving…

Measurable cones, with linear and measurable functions as morphisms, are a model of intuitionistic linear logic and of call-by-name probabilistic PCF which accommodates "continuous data types" such as the real line. So far however, they…

It is useful to have a criterion for when the predictions of an operational theory should be considered classically explainable. Here we take the criterion to be that the theory admits of a generalized-noncontextual ontological model.…
