Commutativity has proven to be a powerful tool in reasoning about concurrent programs. Recent work has shown that a commutativity-based reduction of a program may admit simpler proofs than the program itself. The framework of…
Lexical semantics theories differ in advocating that the meaning of words is represented as an inference graph, a feature mapping or a vector space, thus raising the question: is it the case that one of these approaches is superior to the…
In this document the author proves that several problems in data-driven numerical approximation of dynamical systems in $\mathbb{C}^n$, can be reduced to the computation of a family of constrained matrix representations of elements of the…
We extend the simply-typed guarded $\lambda$-calculus with discrete probabilities and endow it with a program logic for reasoning about relational properties of guarded probabilistic computations. This provides a framework for programming…
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…
interpreters are tools to compute approximations for behaviors of a program. These approximations can then be used for optimisation or for error detection. In this paper, we show how to describe an abstract interpreter using the type-theory…
In proof assistants, the physical proximity between two formal mathematical concepts is a strong predictor of their mutual relevance. Furthermore, lemmas with close proximity regularly exhibit similar proof structures. We show that this…
A transduction provides us with a way of using the monadic second-order language of a structure to make statements about a derived structure. Any transduction induces a relation on the set of these structures. This article presents a…
The goal of these lectures is to review some mathematical aspects of random tree models used in evolutionary biology to model gene trees or species trees. We start with stochastic models of tree shapes (finite trees without edge lengths),…
Probabilistic search algorithms, such as Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), have proven very effective in solving sequential decision-making tasks under uncertainty. However, interpreting asymmetric search trees that incorporate bandit-based…
Unanticipated connections between different fragments of lambda calculus and different families of embedded graphs (a.k.a. "maps") motivate the problem of enumerating $\beta$-normal linear lambda terms. In this brief note, it is shown (by…
Dependently typed lambda calculi such as the Logical Framework (LF) are capable of representing relationships between terms through types. By exploiting the "formulas-as-types" notion, such calculi can also encode the correspondence between…
We describe a Martin-L\"of style dependent type theory, called Cocon, that allows us to mix the intensional function space that is used to represent higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS) trees with the extensional function space that…
We introduce a graph polynomial that distinguishes tree structures to represent dependency grammar and a measure based on the polynomial representation to quantify syntax similarity. The polynomial encodes accurate and comprehensive…
We construct a uniformly discrete, and even sparse, sequence of real numbers $\Lambda=\{\lambda_n\}$ and a function g in $L^2(R)$, such that for every q>2, every function f in $L^2(R)$ can be approximated with arbitrary small error by a…
Embeddings of word structures into matrix semigroups provide a natural bridge between combinatorics on words and linear algebra. However, low-dimensional matrix semigroups impose strong structural restrictions on possible embeddings.…
A type theory is presented that combines (intuitionistic) linear types with type dependency, thus properly generalising both intuitionistic dependent type theory and full linear logic. A syntax and complete categorical semantics are…
Copulas are a powerful tool for modeling multivariate distributions as they allow to separately estimate the univariate marginal distributions and the joint dependency structure. However, known parametric copulas offer limited flexibility…
We present a type theory dealing with non-linear, "ordinary" dependent types (which we will call cartesian) and linear types, where both constructs may depend on terms of the former. In the interplay between these, we find new type formers…
"Interaction trees" (ITrees) are a general-purpose data structure for representing the behaviors of recursive programs that interact with their environments. A coinductive variant of "free monads," ITrees are built out of uninterpreted…
