A Contextual Reconstruction of Monadic Reflection

Authors: Toru Kawata

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 119, 27th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2018)

Abstract

With the help of an idea of contextual modal logic, we define a logical system lambda^{refl} that incorporates monadic reflection, and then investigate delimited continuations through the lens of monadic reflection. Technically, we firstly prove a certain universality of continuation monad, making the character of monadic reflection a little more clear. Next, moving focus to delimited continuations, we present a macro definition of shift/reset by monadic reflection. We then prove that lambda^{refl}_{2cont}, a restriction of lambda^{refl}, has exactly the same provability as lambda^{s/r}_{pure}, a system that incorporates shift/reset. Our reconstruction of monadic reflection opens up a path for investigation of delimited continuations with familiar monadic language.
