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…

We establish a general framework for reasoning about the relationship between call-by-value and call-by-name. In languages with computational effects, call-by-value and call-by-name executions of programs often have different, but related,…

We extend the {\lambda}-calculus with constructs suitable for relational and functional-logic programming: non-deterministic choice, fresh variable introduction, and unification of expressions. In order to be able to unify…

We introduce two extensions of the $\lambda$-calculus with a probabilistic choice operator, $\Lambda_\oplus^{cbv}$ and $\Lambda_\oplus^{cbn}$, modeling respectively call-by-value and call-by-name probabilistic computation. We prove that…

We introduce a functional calculus with simple syntax and operational semantics in which the calculi introduced so far in the Curry-Howard correspondence for Classical Logic can be faithfully encoded. Our calculus enjoys confluence without…

This paper formalizes and proves correct a compilation scheme for mutually-recursive definitions in call-by-value functional languages. This scheme supports a wider range of recursive definitions than previous methods. We formalize our…

Instead of developing a customized typed lambda-calculus for each theory, we attempt to design a general parametric calculus that permits to express the proofs of any theory. This way, the problem of expressing proofs in the lambda-calculus…

We offer a simple graphical representation for proofs of intuitionistic logic, which is inspired by proof nets and interaction nets (two formalisms originating in linear logic). This graphical calculus of proofs inherits good features from…

In this paper, we present a linear and reversible programming language with inductives types and recursion. The semantics of the languages is based on pattern-matching; we show how ensuring syntactical exhaustivity and non-overlapping of…

This is a survey of {\lambda}-calculi that, through the Curry-Howard isomorphism, correspond to constructive modal logics. We cover the prehistory of the subject and then concentrate on the developments that took place in the 1990s and…

A famous result by Milner is that the lambda-calculus can be simulated inside the pi-calculus. This simulation, however, holds only modulo strong bisimilarity on processes, i.e. there is a slight mismatch between beta-reduction and how it…

We study the weak call-by-value $\lambda$-calculus as a model for computational complexity theory and establish the natural measures for time and space -- the number of beta-reductions and the size of the largest term in a computation -- as…

The lambda calculus is a widely accepted computational model of higher-order functional pro- grams, yet there is not any direct and universally accepted cost model for it. As a consequence, the computational difficulty of reducing lambda…

Dummett's logic LC is intuitionistic logic extended with Dummett's axiom: for every two statements the first implies the second or the second implies the first. We present a natural deduction and a Curry-Howard correspondence for…

This paper provides foundations for strong (that is, possibly under abstraction) call-by-value evaluation for the lambda-calculus. Recently, Accattoli et al. proposed a form of call-by-value strong evaluation for the lambda-calculus, the…

This paper gives a detailed account of the relationship between (a variant of) the call-by-value lambda calculus and linear logic proof nets. The presentation is carefully tuned in order to realize a strong bisimulation between the two…

Proof theory provides a foundation for studying and reasoning about programming languages, most directly based on the well-known Curry-Howard isomorphism between intuitionistic logic and the typed lambda-calculus. More recently, a…

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…
