We develop a general theory of extensions of flat functors along geometric morphisms of toposes, and apply it to the study of the class of theories whose classifying topos is equivalent to a presheaf topos. As a result, we obtain a…
Martin-L\"of's Intuitionistic Theory of Types is becoming popular for formal reasoning about computer programs. To handle recursion schemes other than primitive recursion, a theory of well-founded relations is presented. Using primitive…
The aim of this paper is to establish some metrical coincidence and common fixed point theorems with an arbitrary relation under an implicit contractive condition which is general enough to cover a multitude of well known contraction…
We introduce and study a general concept of multiple fixed point for mappings defined on partially ordered distance spaces in the presence of a contraction type condition and appropriate monotonicity properties. This notion and the obtained…
Euclid's reasoning is essentially constructive. Tarski's elegant and concise first-order theory of Euclidean geometry, on the other hand, is essentially non-constructive, even if we restrict attention (as we do here) to the theory with…
We begin a systematic development of structure theory for a first order theory, which is stable over a monadic predicate. We show that stability over a predicate implies quantifier free definability of types over stable sets, introduce an…
We present intersection type systems in the style of sequent calculus, modifying the systems that Valentini introduced to prove normalisation properties without using the reducibility method. Our systems are more natural than Valentini's…
We introduce MTT, a dependent type theory which supports multiple modalities. MTT is parametrized by a mode theory which specifies a collection of modes, modalities, and transformations between them. We show that different choices of mode…
This is the third installment in a series of papers on algebraic set theory. In it, we develop a uniform approach to sheaf models of constructive set theories based on ideas from categorical logic. The key notion is that of a "predicative…
In order to avoid well-know paradoxes associated with self-referential definitions, higher-order dependent type theories stratify the theory using a countably infinite hierarchy of universes (also known as sorts), Type$_0$ : Type$_1$ :…
In the context of tvs-cone metric spaces, we prove a Bishop-Phelps and a Caristi's type theorem. These results allow us to prove a fixed point theorem for $(\delta, L)$-weak contraction according to a pseudo Hausdorff metric defined by…
This paper presents and extends our type theoretical framework for a compositional treatment of natural language semantics with some lexical features like coercions (e.g. of a town into a football club) and copredication (e.g. on a town as…
We develop combinatorial test generation algorithms for progressively more powerful theorem provers, covering formula languages ranging from the implicational fragment of intuitionistic logic to full intuitionistic propositional logic. Our…
Tarski's theorem states that every monotone function from a complete lattice to itself has a fixed point. We specifically consider the two-dimensional lattice $\mathcal{L}^2_n$ on points $\{1, \ldots, n\}^2$ and where $(x_1, y_1) \leq (x_2,…
We present a type system and inference algorithm for a rich subset of JavaScript equipped with objects, structural subtyping, prototype inheritance, and first-class methods. The type system supports abstract and recursive objects, and is…
This paper presents several independence results concerning the topos-valid and the intuitionistic (generalized) predicative theories of locales. In particular, certain consequences of the consistency of a general form of Troelstra's…
We established a fixed-point theorem for mapping satisfying a general contractive inequality of integral type depended an another function. This theorem substantially extend the theorem due to Branciari (2003) and Rhoades (2003)
The ability to cast values between related types is a leitmotiv of many flavors of dependent type theory, such as observational type theories, subtyping, or cast calculi for gradual typing. These casts all exhibit a common structural…
We give a new proof of a theorem of Mints that the positive fragment of minimal predicate logic is decidable. The idea of the proof is to replace the eigenvariable condition of sequent calculus by an appropriate scoping mechanism. The…
We consider a class of formula equations in first-order logic, Horn formula equations, which are defined by a syntactic restriction on the occurrences of predicate variables. Horn formula equations play an important role in many…
