The Higher-Order $\Psi$-calculus framework (HO$\Psi$) is a generalisation of many first- and higher-order extensions of the $\pi$-calculus. It was proposed by Parrow et al. who showed that higher-order calculi such as HO$\pi$ and CHOCS can…
Process calculi may be compared in their expressive power by means of encodings between them. A widely accepted definition of what constitutes a valid encoding for (dis)proving relative expressiveness results between process calculi was…
This work proposes tractable bisimulations for the higher-order pi-calculus with session primitives (HOpi) and offers a complete study of the expressivity of its most significant subcalculi. First we develop three typed bisimulations, which…
We study whether, in the pi-calculus, the match prefix-a conditional operator testing two names for (syntactic) equality-is expressible via the other operators. Previously, Carbone and Maffeis proved that matching is not expressible this…
We study whether, in the pi-calculus, the match prefix---a conditional operator testing two names for (syntactic) equality---is expressible via the other operators. Previously, Carbone and Maffeis proved that matching is not expressible…
We introduce a new criterion, replacement freeness, to discern the relative expressiveness of process calculi. Intuitively, a calculus is strongly replacement free if replacing, within an enclosing context, a process that cannot perform any…
Message-passing based concurrent languages are widely used in developing large distributed and coordination systems. This paper presents the buffered $\pi$-calculus --- a variant of the $\pi$-calculus where channel names are classified into…
We introduce a novel approach to studying properties of processes in the {\pi}-calculus based on a processes-as-formulas interpretation, by establishing a correspondence between specific sequent calculus derivations and computation trees in…
The $\pi$-calculus is the paradigmatical name-passing calculus. While being purely name-passing, it allows the representation of higher-order functions and store. We study how $\pi$-calculus processes can be controlled so that computations…
Classical Processes (CP) is a calculus where the proof theory of classical linear logic types communicating processes with mobile channels, a la pi-calculus. Its construction builds on a recent propositions as types correspondence between…
We present fully abstract encodings of the call-by-name and call-by-value $\lambda$-calculus into HOcore, a minimal higher-order process calculus with no name restriction. We consider several equivalences on the $\lambda$-calculus side --…
Supervised learning is often computationally easy in practice. But to what extent does this mean that other modes of learning, such as reinforcement learning (RL), ought to be computationally easy by extension? In this work we show the…
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…
For fragments L of first-order logic (FO) with counting quantifiers, we consider the definability problem, which asks whether a given L-formula can be equivalently expressed by a formula in some fragment of L without counting, and the more…
Encodings or the proof of their absence are the main way to compare process calculi. To analyse the quality of encodings and to rule out trivial or meaningless encodings, they are augmented with encodability criteria. There exists a bunch…
The $\lambda$$\Pi$-calculus modulo theory is a logical framework in which various logics and type systems can be encoded, thus helping the cross-verification and interoperability of proof systems based on those logics and type systems. In…
The pi-calculus is a widely used process calculus, which models communications between processes and allows the passing of communication links. Various operational semantics of the pi-calculus have been proposed, which can be classified…
To celebrate the 30th edition of EXPRESS and the 20th edition of SOS we overview how session types can be expressed in a type theory for the standard $\pi$-calculus by means of a suitable encoding. The encoding allows one to reuse results…
We study encodings of the lambda-calculus into the pi-calculus in the unexplored case of calculi with non-determinism and failures. On the sequential side, we consider lambdafail, a new non-deterministic calculus in which intersection types…
This paper aims at carrying out termination proofs for simply typed higher-order calculi automatically by using ordering comparisons. To this end, we introduce the computability path ordering (CPO), a recursive relation on terms obtained by…
