We explore asynchronous programming with algebraic effects. We complement their conventional synchronous treatment by showing how to naturally also accommodate asynchrony within them, namely, by decoupling the execution of operation calls…

Programming benefits from a clear separation between pure, mathematical computation and impure, effectful interaction with the world. Existing approaches to enforce this separation include monads, type-and-effect systems, and capability…

Techniques from higher categories and higher-dimensional rewriting are becoming increasingly important for understanding the finer, computational properties of higher algebraic theories that arise, among other fields, in quantum…

The delay monad provides a way to introduce general recursion in type theory. To write programs that use a wide range of computational effects directly in type theory, we need to combine the delay monad with the monads of these effects.…

In compositional model-theoretic semantics, researchers assemble truth-conditions or other kinds of denotations using the lambda calculus. It was previously observed that the lambda terms and/or the denotations studied tend to follow the…

A type assignment system for lambda-calculus enjoys the principal typing property if every typable term M has a special typing, called principal, from which all typings for M can be obtained via suitable operations. The existence of…

Monads govern computational side-effects in programming semantics. They can be combined in a ''bottom-up'' way to handle several instances of such effects. Indexed monads and graded monads do this in a modular way. Here, instead, we equip…

Monads provide a simple and concise interface to user-defined computational effects in functional programming languages. This enables equational reasoning about effects, abstraction over monadic interfaces and the development of monad…

Rigorous modelling of natural and industrial systems still conveys various challenges related to abstractions, methods to proceed with and easy-to-use tools to build, compose and reason on models. Operads are mathematical structures that…

Monads are a popular tool for the working functional programmer to structure effectful computations. This paper presents polymonads, a generalization of monads. Polymonads give the familiar monadic bind the more general type forall a,b. L a…

Evaluating higher-order functional programs through abstract machines inspired by the geometry of the interaction is known to induce $\textit{space}$ efficiencies, the price being $\textit{time}$ performances often poorer than those…

The intersection type assignment system has been designed directly as deductive system for assigning formulae of the implicative and conjunctive fragment of the intuitionistic logic to terms of lambda-calculus. But its relation with the…

We introduce an intersection type system for the lambda-mu calculus that is invariant under subject reduction and expansion. The system is obtained by describing Streicher and Reus's denotational model of continuations in the category of…

In the quest to give a formal compositional semantics to natural languages, semanticists have started turning their attention to phenomena that have been also considered as parts of pragmatics (e.g., discourse anaphora and presupposition…

The space complexity of functional programs is not well understood. In particular, traditional implementation techniques are tailored to time efficiency, and space efficiency induces time inefficiencies, as it prefers re-computing to…

A cornerstone of the theory of lambda-calculus is that intersection types characterise termination properties. They are a flexible tool that can be adapted to various notions of termination, and that also induces adequate denotational…

We introduce a new representation of non-idempotent intersection types, using \textbf{sequences} (families indexed with natural numbers) instead of lists or multisets. This allows scaling up \textbf{intersection type} theory to the…

Interactive behaviors are ubiquitous in modern cryptography, but are also present in $\lambda$-calculi, in the form of higher-order constructions. Traditionally, however, typed $\lambda$-calculi simply do not fit well into cryptography,…

This work proposes a dependent type theory that combines functions and session-typed processes (with value dependencies) through a contextual monad, internalising typed processes in a dependently-typed lambda-calculus. The proposed…

We study a family of distributors-induced bicategorical models of lambda-calculus, proving that they can be syntactically presented via intersection type systems. We first introduce a class of 2-monads whose algebras are monoidal categories…
