A Modular Framework for Proof-Search via Formalised Modal Completeness in HOL Light

Authors: Antonella Bilotta, Marco Maggesi, and Cosimo Perini Brogi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
We extend the existing HOL Light Library for Modal Systems (HOLMS) to support a modular implementation of modal reasoning within the HOL Light proof assistant. We deeply embed axiomatic calculi and relational semantics for seven normal modal logics (K, T, B, K4, S4, S5, GL) and formalise modal adequacy theorems for these systems. We then leverage those formalisations to implement a mechanism for automated reasoning via proof-search in the associated labelled sequent calculi, which we shallowly embed in HOL Light’s goal-stack mechanism. This way, we equip the general-purpose proof assistant with (semi)decision procedures for these logics that, in case of failure to construct a proof for the input formula, return a certified countermodel within the appropriate class for the logic under consideration. On the methodological side, we propose a precise measure of the modularity of our approach by systematically adopting Christopher Strachey’s distinction between ad hoc and parametric polymorphism throughout the library.

Quantum Programming in Polylogarithmic Time

Authors: Florent Ferrari, Emmanuel Hainry, Romain Péchoux, and Mário Silva

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
Polylogarithmic time delineates a relevant notion of feasibility on several classical computational models such as Boolean circuits or parallel random access machines. As far as the quantum paradigm is concerned, this notion yields the complexity class FBQPOLYLOG of functions approximable in polylogarithmic time with a quantum random access Turing machine. We introduce a quantum programming language with first-order recursive procedures, which provides the first programming language-based characterization of FBQPOLYLOG. Each program computes a function in FBQPOLYLOG (soundness) and, conversely, each function of this complexity class is computed by a program (completeness). We also provide a compilation strategy from programs to uniform families of quantum circuits of polylogarithmic depth and polynomial size, whose set of computed functions is known as qnc, and recover the well-known separation result FBQPOLYLOG ⊊ QNC.

Branch Sequentialization in Quantum Polytime

Authors: Emmanuel Hainry, Romain Péchoux, and Mário Silva

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)

Abstract
Quantum algorithms leverage the use of quantumly-controlled data in order to achieve computational advantage. This implies that the programs use constructs depending on quantum data and not just classical data such as measurement outcomes. Current compilation strategies for quantum control flow involve compiling the branches of a quantum conditional, either in-depth or in-width, which in general leads to circuits of exponential size. This problem is coined as the branch sequentialization problem. We introduce and study a compilation technique for avoiding branch sequentialization on a language that is sound and complete for quantum polynomial time, thus, improving on existing polynomial-size-preserving compilation techniques.

Simple Types for Probabilistic Termination

Authors: Willem Heijltjes and Georgina Majury

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
We present a new typing discipline to guarantee the probability of termination in probabilistic lambda-calculi. The main contribution is a particular naturality and simplicity: our probabilistic types are as simple types, but generated from probabilities as base types, representing a least probability of termination. Simple types are recovered by restricting probabilities to one. Our vehicle is the Probabilistic Event Lambda-Calculus by Dal Lago, Guerrieri, and Heijltjes, which presents a solution to the issue of confluence in probabilistic lambda-calculi. Our probabilistic type system provides an alternative solution to that using counting quantifiers by Antonelli, Dal Lago, and Pistone, for the same calculus. The problem that both type systems address is to give a lower bound on the probability that terms head-normalize. Following the recent Functional Machine Calculus by Heijltjes, our development takes the (simplified) Krivine machine as primary, and proceeds via an extension of the calculus with sequential composition and identity on the machine. Our type system then gives a natural account of termination probability on the Krivine machine, reflected back onto head-normalization for the original calculus. In this way we are able to avoid the use of counting quantifiers, while improving on the termination bounds given by Antonelli, Dal Lago, and Pistone.

A Rewriting Theory for Quantum λ-Calculus

Authors: Claudia Faggian, Gaetan Lopez, and Benoît Valiron

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
Quantum lambda calculus has been studied mainly as an idealized programming language - the evaluation essentially corresponds to a deterministic abstract machine. Very little work has been done to develop a rewriting theory for quantum lambda calculus. Recent advances in the theory of probabilistic rewriting give us a way to tackle this task with tools unavailable a decade ago. Our primary focus are standardization and normalization results.

A "Game Semantical" Intuitionistic Realizability Validating Markov's Principle

Authors: Federico Aschieri and Margherita Zorzi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 26, 19th International Conference on Types for Proofs and Programs (TYPES 2013)

Abstract
We propose a very simple modification of Kreisel's modified realizability in order to computationally realize Markov's Principle in the context of Heyting Arithmetic. Intuitively, realizers correspond to arbitrary strategies in Hintikka-Tarski games, while in Kreisel's realizability they can only represent winning strategies. Our definition, however, does not employ directly game semantical concepts and remains in the style of functional interpretations. As term calculus, we employ a purely functional language, which is Goedel's System T enriched with some syntactic sugar.
