Normalization Without Syntax

Authors: Willem B. Heijltjes, Dominic J. D. Hughes, and Lutz Straßburger

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

Abstract
We present normalization for intuitionistic combinatorial proofs (ICPs) and relate it to the simply-typed lambda-calculus. We prove confluence and strong normalization. Combinatorial proofs, or "proofs without syntax", form a graphical semantics of proof in various logics that is canonical yet complexity-aware: they are a polynomial-sized representation of sequent proofs that factors out exactly the non-duplicating permutations. Our approach to normalization aligns with these characteristics: it is canonical (free of permutations) and generic (readily applied to other logics). Our reduction mechanism is a canonical representation of reduction in sequent calculus with closed cuts (no abstraction is allowed below a cut), and relates to closed reduction in lambda-calculus and supercombinators. While we will use ICPs concretely, the notion of reduction is completely abstract, and can be specialized to give a reduction mechanism for any representation of typed normal forms.

A Deep Quantitative Type System

Authors: Giulio Guerrieri, Willem B. Heijltjes, and Joseph W.N. Paulus

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 183, 29th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2021)

Abstract
We investigate intersection types and resource lambda-calculus in deep-inference proof theory. We give a unified type system that is parametric in various aspects: it encompasses resource calculi, intersection-typed lambda-calculus, and simply-typed lambda-calculus; it accommodates both idempotence and non-idempotence; it characterizes strong and weak normalization; and it does so while allowing a range of algebraic laws to determine reduction behaviour, for various quantitative effects. We give a parametric resource calculus with explicit sharing, the "collection calculus", as a Curry-Howard interpretation of the type system, that embodies these computational properties.

Proof Nets for First-Order Additive Linear Logic

Authors: Willem B. Heijltjes, Dominic J. D. Hughes, and Lutz Straßburger

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

Abstract
We present canonical proof nets for first-order additive linear logic, the fragment of linear logic with sum, product, and first-order universal and existential quantification. We present two versions of our proof nets. One, witness nets, retains explicit witnessing information to existential quantification. For the other, unification nets, this information is absent but can be reconstructed through unification. Unification nets embody a central contribution of the paper: first-order witness information can be left implicit, and reconstructed as needed. Witness nets are canonical for first-order additive sequent calculus. Unification nets in addition factor out any inessential choice for existential witnesses. Both notions of proof net are defined through coalescence, an additive counterpart to multiplicative contractibility, and for witness nets an additional geometric correctness criterion is provided. Both capture sequent calculus cut-elimination as a one-step global composition operation.

Proof Nets for Bi-Intuitionistic Linear Logic

Authors: Gianluigi Bellin and Willem B. Heijltjes

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 108, 3rd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2018)

Abstract
Bi-Intuitionistic Linear Logic (BILL) is an extension of Intuitionistic Linear Logic with a par, dual to the tensor, and subtraction, dual to linear implication. It is the logic of categories with a monoidal closed and a monoidal co-closed structure that are related by linear distributivity, a strength of the tensor over the par. It conservatively extends Full Intuitionistic Linear Logic (FILL), which includes only the par. We give proof nets for the multiplicative, unit-free fragment MBILL-. Correctness is by local rewriting in the style of Danos contractibility, which yields sequentialization into a relational sequent calculus extending the existing one for FILL. We give a second, geometric correctness condition combining Danos-Regnier switching and Lamarche's Essential Net criterion, and demonstrate composition both inductively and as a one-off global operation.
