We argue that operads provide a general framework for dealing with polynomials and combinatory completeness of combinatory algebras, including the classical $\mathbf{SK}$-algebras, linear $\mathbf{BCI}$-algebras, planar…
The $\rho$-calculus (Reflective Higher-Order Calculus) of Meredith and Radestock is a $\pi$-calculus-like language with some unusual features, notably, structured names, runtime generation of free names, and the lack of an operator for…
This work exploits the logical foundation of session types to determine what kind of type discipline for the pi-calculus can exactly capture, and is captured by, lambda-calculus behaviours. Leveraging the proof theoretic content of the…
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…
Based on results by Brugall\'e and Mikhalkin, Fomin and Mikhalkin give formulas for computing classical Severi degrees $N^{d, \delta}$ using long-edge graphs. In 2012, Block, Colley and Kennedy considered the logarithmic version of a…
We compare the expressive power of three programming abstractions for user-defined computational effects: Bauer and Pretnar's effect handlers, Filinski's monadic reflection, and delimited control without answer-type-modification. This…
We study an untyped lambda calculus with quantum data and classical control. This work stems from previous proposals by Selinger and Valiron and by Van Tonder. We focus on syntax and expressiveness, rather than (denotational) semantics. We…
The Jacobi-Stirling numbers and the Legendre-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind were first introduced in [6], [7]. In this paper we note that Jacobi-Stirling numbers and Legendre-Stirling numbers are specializations of elementary…
Differential lambda-calculus was first introduced by Thomas Ehrhard and Laurent Regnier in 2003. Despite more than 15 years of history, little work has been done on a differential calculus with integration. In this paper, we shall propose a…
The goal of this paper is to provide a strong integration between constraint modelling and relational DBMSs. To this end we propose extensions of standard query languages such as relational algebra and SQL, by adding constraint modelling…
We investigate a class of nominal algebraic Henkin-style models for the simply typed lambda-calculus in which variables map to names in the denotation and lambda-abstraction maps to a (non-functional) name-abstraction operation. The…
In this paper, we explore applications of combinatorics on words across various domains, including data compression, error detection, cryptographic protocols, and pseudorandom number generation. The examination of the theoretical…
We study the interaction of the programming construct "new", which generates statically scoped names, with communication via messages on channels. This interaction is crucial in security protocols, which are the main motivating examples for…
Operational semantics have been enormously successful, in large part due to its flexibility and simplicity, but they are not compositional. Denotational semantics, on the other hand, are compositional but the lattice-theoretic models are…
Strictly positive logics recently attracted attention both in the description logic and in the provability logic communities for their combination of efficiency and sufficient expressivity. The language of Reflection Calculus RC consists of…
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…
Prediction without justification has limited utility. Much of the success of neural models can be attributed to their ability to learn rich, dense and expressive representations. While these representations capture the underlying complexity…
We describe an algorithmic method of proof compression based on the introduction of Pi_2-cuts into a cut-free LK-proof. The current approach is based on an inversion of Gentzen s cut-elimination method and extends former methods for…
A new characterization of provably recursive functions of first-order arithmetic is described. Its main feature is using only terms consisting of 0, the successor S and variables in the quantifier rules, namely, universal elimination and…
Analytic perturbation theory for matrices and operators is an immensely useful mathematical technique. Most elementary introductions to this method have their background in the physics literature, and quantum mechanics in particular. In…
