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 --…
In this paper, we introduce the $\lambda\mu^{\wedge \vee}$- call-by-value calculus and we give a proof of the Church-Rosser property of this system. This proof is an adaptation of that of Andou which uses an extended parallel reduction…
We provide a proof of strong normalisation for lambda+, a recently introduced, explicitly typed, non-deterministic lambda-calculus where isomorphic propositions are identified. Such a proof is a non-trivial adaptation of the reducibility…
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…
The extensive deployment of probabilistic algorithms has radically changed our perspective on several well-established computational notions. Correctness is probably the most basic one. While a typical probabilistic program cannot be said…
We propose an implementation of lambda+, a recently introduced simply typed lambda-calculus with pairs where isomorphic types are made equal. The rewrite system of lambda+ is a rewrite system modulo an equivalence relation, which makes its…
This article presents a type-based analysis for deriving upper bounds on the expected execution cost of probabilistic programs. The analysis is naturally compositional, parametric in the cost model, and supports higher order functions and…
The $\lambda$-calculus is a handy formalism to specify the evaluation of higher-order programs. It is not very handy, however, when one interprets the specification as an execution mechanism, because terms can grow exponentially with the…
Substitution resolution supports the computational character of $\beta$-reduction, complementing its execution with a capture-avoiding exchange of terms for bound variables. Alas, the meta-level definition of substitution, masking a…
The construction of models from data is a significant contributor to the energetic costs of computation. Because of this, understanding how foundational thermodynamic bounds apply to modeling algorithms will be increasingly important. Here,…
In this paper we investigate the $\lambda$ -calculus, a $\lambda$-calculus enriched with resource control. Explicit control of resources is enabled by the presence of erasure and duplication operators, which correspond to thinning and…
Evaluating higher-order functional programs through abstract machines inspired by the geometry of the interaction is known to induce $\textit{space}$ efficiencies, the price being $\textit{time}$ performances often poorer than those…
The lambda-calculus is a peculiar computational model whose definition does not come with a notion of machine. Unsurprisingly, implementations of the lambda-calculus have been studied for decades. Abstract machines are implementations…
A new, comprehensive approach to inhabitation problems in simply-typed lambda-calculus is shown, dealing with both decision and counting problems. This approach works by exploiting a representation of the search space generated by a given…
Safety is a syntactic condition of higher-order grammars that constrains occurrences of variables in the production rules according to their type-theoretic order. In this paper, we introduce the safe lambda calculus, which is obtained by…
We sketch a tentative proof of P-completeness for the $\beta$-convertibility problem on untyped planar (a.k.a. ordered or non-commutative) $\lambda$-terms.
We study Milner's lambda-calculus with partial substitutions. Particularly, we show confluence on terms and metaterms, preservation of \b{eta}-strong normalisation and characterisation of strongly normalisable terms via an intersection…
Soft linear logic ([Lafont02]) is a subsystem of linear logic characterizing the class PTIME. We introduce Soft lambda-calculus as a calculus typable in the intuitionistic and affine variant of this logic. We prove that the (untyped) terms…
The goal of this work is to study binary market models with transaction costs, and to characterize their arbitrage opportunities. It has been already shown that the absence of arbitrage is related to the existence of \lambda-consistent…
We compute the integral of a function or the expectation of a random variable with minimal cost and use, for our new algorithm and for upper bounds of the complexity, i.i.d. samples. Under certain assumptions it is possible to select a…
