Explicit substitutions at a distance, rewriting, and applications to the theory of lambda calculus

fr 

Le 14 mai 2012, à 14h en salle B311, le séminaire LCR accueille Beniamino Accattoli (LIX).

In some works in collaboration with Stefano Guerrini and Delia Kesner I developed a new approach to explicit substitutions, arising from Linear Logic proof-nets. The idea is to design calculi mimicking closely the dynamics of the graphical cut-elimination rules. Proof-nets and terms have very different notions of locality: this fact induce non-local, "at a distance" rewriting rules on terms. Substitution calculi at a distance are half-way lambda calculus and typical explicit substitution calculi: they retain most of the simplicity of lambda calculus, keeping the subtleties and the finer evaluation of explicit substitutions. In a series of recent works (some of which are joint works with Delia Kesner, Luca Paolini or Ugo Dal Lago) I explored systematically the rewriting theory of these calculi. In the talk I will survey the problems I studied (confluence, preservation of strong normalization, sigma-equivalence, developments, solvability, factorization, standardization, residuals) and the results I obtained, showing how they provide new understandings of classical notions and results - and sometimes even new results - in the theory of lambda-calculus.

Graphes d'interaction

fr 

Le 31 mai 2010, à 15h30 en salle B311, le séminaire LCR accueille Thomas Seiller (IML, Aix-Marseille 2).

Je présenterai une sémantique localisée du fragment multiplicatif de la logique linéaire (MLL) où les preuves sont représentées par des graphes. Cette sémantique, inspirée des derniers travaux de J.-Y. Girard, se révèle être une version combinatoire de la géométrie de l’interaction dans le facteur hyperfini. Elle permet en particulier de mettre en rapport ces récents développements et les réseaux de preuves, les sémantiques de jeu ou la ludique. Je discuterai également d’une généralisation au fragment multiplicatif-additif de la logique linéaire (MALL).

La sémantique relationnelle de la logique linéaire est-elle injective?

fr 

Le 12 avril 2010, à 13h30 en salle D214 (attention à la salle inhabituelle !) le séminaire LCR accueille Daniel de Carvalho (LIPN).

Pour un certain fragment de la logique linéaire, la relation d’équivalence sur les preuves induite par l’élimination des coupures coïncide avec celle induite par le modèle relationnel basé sur les multi-ensembles.

Finite automata and regular fixed point formulas in muMALL

fr 

Le 11 janvier 2010, à 15h30 en salle B311, le séminaire LCR accueille David Baelde (University of Minnesota, USA).

We present muMALL, an extension of multiplicative additive linear logic with least and greatest fixed points, and illustrate its expressiveness through the model-checking problem of non-deterministic finite automata inclusion.

We consider encoding automata as least fixed points in muMALL, and use its general induction scheme to reason about them. We provide a coinductive characterization of inclusion that yields a natural bridge to proof-theory. This yields a completeness theorem, but can also be generalized to the fragment of "regular formulas", obtaining new insights about inductive theorem proving and cyclic proofs in particular.

Workshop on Implicit Computational Complexity

en 

Implicit Computational Complexity

Implicit Computational Complexity (ICC) has emerged from various propositions to use logic and formal methods like types, rewriting systems, interpretations... to provide languages for complexity-bounded computation, in particular for polynomial time computing.

It aims at studying the computational complexity of programs without refering to a particular machine model and explicit bounds on time or memory, but instead by relying on programming or logical disciplines that imply complexity properties. Several approaches have been explored for that purpose, like restrictions on primitive recursion, lambda calculus, types, linear logic, rewriting systems .... They originally mostly came from the functional programming paradigm, but imperative programming is now also addressed. Two objectives of ICC are:

  • on the one hand to find natural implicit logical characterizations of functions of various complexity classes,
  • on the other hand to design criteria usable for the static verification of programs complexity. In particular the latter goal requires characterizations which are flexible enough to validate commonly used algorithms.
