Linear Lambda-Calculus is Linear

Authors: Alejandro Díaz-Caro and Gilles Dowek

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 228, 7th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2022)

Abstract

We prove a linearity theorem for an extension of linear logic with addition and multiplication by a scalar: the proofs of some propositions in this logic are linear in the algebraic sense. This work is part of a wider research program that aims at defining a logic whose proof language is a quantum programming language.

Proof Normalisation in a Logic Identifying Isomorphic Propositions

Authors: Alejandro Díaz-Caro and Gilles Dowek

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 131, 4th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2019)

Abstract

We define a fragment of propositional logic where isomorphic propositions, such as A wedge B and B wedge A, or A ==> (B wedge C) and (A ==> B) wedge (A ==> C) are identified. We define System I, a proof language for this logic, and prove its normalisation and consistency.
