We discover new P-time computable six-vertex models on planar graphs beyond Kasteleyn's algorithm for counting planar perfect matchings. We further prove that there are no more: Together, they exhaust all P-time computable six-vertex models…
We survey results on the formalization and independence of mathematical statements related to major open problems in computational complexity theory. Our primary focus is on recent findings concerning the (un)provability of complexity…
We define an extension of lambda-calculus with dependents types that enables us to encode transparent and opaque probabilistic programs and prove a strong normalisation result for it by a reducibility technique. While transparent…
The aim of this work is to characterize three fundamental normalization proprieties in lambda-calculus trough the Taylor expansion of $ \lambda$-terms. The general proof strategy consists in stating the dependence of ordinary reduction…
We prove the strong normalization of full classical natural deduction (i.e. with conjunction, disjunction and permutative conversions) by using a translation into the simply typed lambda-mu-calculus. We also extend Mendler's result on…
The linear-algebraic lambda-calculus and the algebraic lambda-calculus are untyped lambda-calculi extended with arbitrary linear combinations of terms. The former presents the axioms of linear algebra in the form of a rewrite system, while…
A longstanding open problem is whether there exists a non syntactical model of the untyped lambda-calculus whose theory is exactly the least lambda-theory (l-beta). In this paper we investigate the more general question of whether the…
We give a ranker-based description using finite-index congruences for the variety $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{DAb}}$ of finite monoids whose regular $\mathcal{D}$-classes form Abelian groups. This combinatorial description yields a normal form for…
In this paper we briefly summarize the contents of Manzonetto's PhD thesis which concerns denotational semantics and equational/order theories of the pure untyped lambda-calculus. The main research achievements include: (i) a general…
A non-deterministic call-by-need lambda-calculus \calc with case, constructors, letrec and a (non-deterministic) erratic choice, based on rewriting rules is investigated. A standard reduction is defined as a variant of left-most outermost…
Here we show that, given a finite homological system $({\cal P},\leq,\{\Delta_u\}_{u\in {\cal P}})$ for a finite-dimensional algebra $\Lambda$ over an algebraically closed field, the category ${\cal F}(\Delta)$ of $\Delta$-filtered modules…
One takes advantage of some basic properties of every homotopic $\lambda$-model (e.g.\ extensional Kan complex) to explore the higher $\beta\eta$-conversions, which would correspond to proofs of equality between terms of a theory of…
The lambda calculus with constructors is an extension of the lambda calculus with variadic constructors. It decomposes the pattern-matching a la ML into a case analysis on constants and a commutation rule between case and application…
The formal system lambda-delta is a typed lambda calculus that pursues the unification of terms, types, environments and contexts as the main goal. lambda-delta takes some features from the Automath-related lambda calculi and some from the…
We present a new lambda-calculus with explicit substitutions and named variables. Renaming of bound variables in this calculus is explicit (there is a special rewrite rule) and can be delayed. Contexts (environments) are not sets or lists…
We define a new cost model for the call-by-value lambda-calculus satisfying the invariance thesis. That is, under the proposed cost model, Turing machines and the call-by-value lambda-calculus can simulate each other within a polynomial…
Tiling planar regions with dominoes is a classical problem in which the decision and counting problems are polynomial. We prove a variety of hardness results (both NP- and #P-completeness) for different generalizations of dominoes in three…
We address the problem of complementing higher-order patterns without repetitions of existential variables. Differently from the first-order case, the complement of a pattern cannot, in general, be described by a pattern, or even by a…
We present quantitative analysis of various (syntactic and behavioral) properties of random \lambda-terms. Our main results are that asymptotically all the terms are strongly normalizing and that any fixed closed term almost never appears…
In this work we provide alternative formulations of the concepts of lambda theory and extensional theory without introducing the notion of substitution and the sets of all, free and bound variables occurring in a term. We also clarify the…
