We show that any multiple-valued function can be represented by a linear lambda term typed in a second-order polymorphic type system, using two distinct styles. The first is a circuit style, which mimics combinational circuits in switching…
In this paper we investigate the $\lambda$ -calculus, a $\lambda$-calculus enriched with resource control. Explicit control of resources is enabled by the presence of erasure and duplication operators, which correspond to thinning and…
Fitch-style modal deduction, in which modalities are eliminated by opening a subordinate proof, and introduced by shutting one, were investigated in the 1990s as a basis for lambda calculi. We show that such calculi have good computational…
We study the family of compact operators $B_{\alpha} = V A_{\alpha} V$, $\alpha>0$ in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$, $d\ge 1$, where $A_{\alpha}$ is the pseudo-differential operator with symbol $a_{\alpha}(\boldsymbol\xi) = a(\alpha\boldsymbol\xi)$,…
We study Milner's lambda-calculus with partial substitutions. Particularly, we show confluence on terms and metaterms, preservation of \b{eta}-strong normalisation and characterisation of strongly normalisable terms via an intersection…
We present a study of a specific kind of lowering operator, herein called $\Lambda$, which is defined as a finite sum of lowering operators, proving that this configuration can be altered, for instance, by the use of Stirling numbers. We…
We investigate an extension of nominal many-sorted signatures in which abstraction has a form of instantiation, called generalised concretion, as elimination operator (similarly to lambda-calculi). Expressions are then classified using a…
Continuation Calculus (CC), introduced by Geron and Geuvers, is a simple foundational model for functional computation. It is closely related to lambda calculus and term rewriting, but it has no variable binding and no pattern matching. It…
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…
A system $\boldsymbol\lambda_{\theta}$ is developed that combines modal logic and simply-typed lambda calculus, and that generalizes the system studied by Montague and Gallin. Whereas Montague and Gallin worked with Church's simple theory…
The intuitionistic fragment of the call-by-name version of Curien and Herbelin's \lambda\_mu\_{\~mu}-calculus is isolated and proved strongly normalising by means of an embedding into the simply-typed lambda-calculus. Our embedding is a…
We investigate the relationship between finite terms in {\lambda}-letrec, the {\lambda}-calculus with letrec, and the infinite {\lambda}-terms they express. We say that a lambda-letrec term expresses a lambda-term if the latter can be…
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…
This text gives a rough, but linear summary covering some key definitions, notations, and propositions from Lambda Calculus: Its Syntax and Semantics, the classical monograph by Barendregt. First, we define a theory of untyped extensional…
Intersection types are a standard tool in operational and semantical studies of the lambda calculus. De Carvalho showed how multi types, a quantitative variant of intersection types providing a handy presentation of the relational…
We present an abstract machine and a reduction semantics for the lambda-calculus extended with control operators that give access to delimited continuations in the CPS hierarchy. The abstract machine is derived from an evaluator in…
We propose to use Church encodings in typed lambda-calculi as the basis for an automata-theoretic counterpart of implicit computational complexity, in the same way that monadic second-order logic provides a counterpart to descriptive…
We introduce and study graphic lambda calculus, a visual language which can be used for representing untyped lambda calculus, but it can also be used for computations in emergent algebras or for representing Reidemeister moves of locally…
Quantum control is traditionally expressed through bilinear models and their associated Lie algebra controllability criteria. But, the first order approximation are not always sufficient and higher order developpements are used in recent…
We propose an implementation of lambda+, a recently introduced simply typed lambda-calculus with pairs where isomorphic types are made equal. The rewrite system of lambda+ is a rewrite system modulo an equivalence relation, which makes its…
