Calculi with control operators have been studied as extensions of simple type theory. Real programming languages contain datatypes, so to really understand control operators, one should also include these in the calculus. As a first step in…
We develop the operational semantics of an untyped probabilistic lambda-calculus with continuous distributions, as a foundation for universal probabilistic programming languages such as Church, Anglican, and Venture. Our first contribution…
In this paper, we show how to interpret a language featuring concurrency, references and replication into proof nets, which correspond to a fragment of differential linear logic. We prove a simulation and adequacy theorem. A key element in…
In any setting in which observable properties have a quantitative flavour, it is natural to compare computational objects by way of \emph{metrics} rather than equivalences or partial orders. This holds, in particular, for probabilistic…
The Curry-Howard correspondence is often described as relating proofs (in intutionistic natural deduction) to programs (terms in simply-typed lambda calculus). However this narrative is hardly a perfect fit, due to the computational content…
Classical programming languages cannot model essential elements of complex systems such as true random number generation. This paper develops a formal programming language called the lambda-q calculus that addresses the fundamental…
We give arithmetical proofs of the strong normalization of two symmetric $\lambda$-calculi corresponding to classical logic. The first one is the $\bar{\lambda}\mu\tilde{\mu}$-calculus introduced by Curien & Herbelin. It is derived via the…
A polarized version of Girard, Scedrov and Scott's Bounded Linear Logic is introduced and its normalization properties studied. Following Laurent, the logic naturally gives rise to a type system for the lambda-mu-calculus, whose derivations…
We describe a type system for the linear-algebraic $\lambda$-calculus. The type system accounts for the linear-algebraic aspects of this extension of $\lambda$-calculus: it is able to statically describe the linear combinations of terms…
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…
We present a linearity theorem for a proof language of intuitionistic multiplicative additive linear logic, incorporating addition and scalar multiplication. The proofs in this language are linear in the algebraic sense. This work is part…
We present the guarded lambda-calculus, an extension of the simply typed lambda-calculus with guarded recursive and coinductive types. The use of guarded recursive types ensures the productivity of well-typed programs. Guarded recursive…
We study counting propositional logic as an extension of propositional logic with counting quantifiers. We prove that the complexity of the underlying decision problem perfectly matches the appropriate level of Wagner's counting hierarchy,…
We investigate program equivalence for linear higher-order(sequential) languages endowed with primitives for computational effects. More specifically, we study operationally-based notions of program equivalence for a linear…
The relational semantics of linear logic is a powerful framework for defining resource-aware models of the $\lambda$-calculus. However, its quantitative aspects are not reflected in the preorders and equational theories induced by these…
In this paper we introduce several quantitative methods for the lambda-calculus based on partial metrics, a well-studied variant of standard metric spaces that have been used to metrize non-Hausdorff topologies, like those arising from…
In this paper, a new calculus on sequences is defined. Also, the $\lambda$-derivative and the $\lambda$-integration are investigated. The fundamental theorem of $\lambda$-calculus is included. A suitable function basis for the…
The Krivine machine is an abstract machine implementing the linear head reduction of lambda-calculus. Ehrhard and Regnier gave a resource sensitive version returning the annotated form of a lambda-term accounting for the resources used by…
Contextuality has been conjectured to be a super-classical resource for quantum computation, analogous to the role of non-locality as a super-classical resource for communication. We show that the presence of contextuality places a lower…
We refine a model for linear logic based on two well-known ingredients: games and simulations. We have already shown that usual simulation relations form a sound notion of morphism between games; and that we can interpret all linear logic…
