A Verified Cost Model for Call-By-Push-Value

Authors: Zhuo Zoey Chen, Johannes Åman Pohjola, and Christine Rizkallah

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
The call-by-push-value λ-calculus allows for syntactically specifying the order of evaluation as part of the term language. Hence, it serves as a unifying language for embedding various evaluation strategies including call-by-value and call-by-name. Given the impact of call-by-push-value, it is remarkable that its adequacy as a model for computational complexity theory has not yet been studied. In this paper, we show that the call-by-push-value λ-calculus is reasonable for both time and space complexity. A reasonable cost model can encode other reasonable cost models with polynomial overhead in time and constant factor overhead in space. We achieve this by encoding call-by-push-value λ-calculus into Turing machines, following a simulation strategy by Forster et al.; for the converse direction, we prove that Levy’s encoding of the call-by-value λ-calculus has reasonable complexity bounds. The main results have been formalised in the HOL4 theorem prover.

How to Play the Accordion: Uniformity and the (Non-)Conservativity of the Linear Approximation of the λ-Calculus

Authors: Rémy Cerda and Lionel Vaux Auclair

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Twenty years after its introduction by Ehrhard and Regnier, differentiation in λ-calculus and in linear logic is now a celebrated tool. In particular, it allows to write the Taylor formula in various λ-calculi, hence providing a theory of linear approximations for these calculi. In the standard λ-calculus, this linear approximation is expressed by results stating that the (possibly) infinitary β-reduction of λ-terms is simulated by the reduction of their Taylor expansion: in terms of rewriting systems, the resource reduction (operating on Taylor approximants) is an extension of the β-reduction. In this paper, we address the converse property, conservativity: are there reductions of the Taylor approximants that do not arise from an actual β-reduction of the approximated term? We show that if we restrict the setting to finite terms and β-reduction sequences, then the linear approximation is conservative. However, as soon as one allows infinitary reduction sequences this property is broken. We design a counter-example, the Accordion. Then we show how restricting the reduction of the Taylor approximants allows to build a conservative extension of the β-reduction preserving good simulation properties. This restriction relies on uniformity, a property that was already at the core of Ehrhard and Regnier’s pioneering work.

Taylor expansion for Call-By-Push-Value

Authors: Jules Chouquet and Christine Tasson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 152, 28th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2020)

Abstract
The connection between the Call-By-Push-Value lambda-calculus introduced by Levy and Linear Logic introduced by Girard has been widely explored through a denotational view reflecting the precise ruling of resources in this language. We take a further step in this direction and apply Taylor expansion introduced by Ehrhard and Regnier. We define a resource lambda-calculus in whose terms can be used to approximate terms of Call-By-Push-Value. We show that this approximation is coherent with reduction and with the translations of Call-By-Name and Call-By-Value strategies into Call-By-Push-Value.

An Application of Parallel Cut Elimination in Unit-Free Multiplicative Linear Logic to the Taylor Expansion of Proof Nets

Authors: Jules Chouquet and Lionel Vaux Auclair

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

Abstract
We examine some combinatorial properties of parallel cut elimination in multiplicative linear logic (MLL) proof nets. We show that, provided we impose some constraint on switching paths, we can bound the size of all the nets satisfying this constraint and reducing to a fixed resultant net. This result gives a sufficient condition for an infinite weighted sum of nets to reduce into another sum of nets, while keeping coefficients finite. We moreover show that our constraints are stable under reduction. Our approach is motivated by the quantitative semantics of linear logic: many models have been proposed, whose structure reflect the Taylor expansion of multiplicative exponential linear logic (MELL) proof nets into infinite sums of differential nets. In order to simulate one cut elimination step in MELL, it is necessary to reduce an arbitrary number of cuts in the differential nets of its Taylor expansion. It turns out our results apply to differential nets, because their cut elimination is essentially multiplicative. We moreover show that the set of differential nets that occur in the Taylor expansion of an MELL net automatically satisfy our constraints. In the present work, we stick to the unit-free and weakening-free fragment of linear logic, which is rich enough to showcase our techniques, while allowing for a very simple kind of constraint: a bound on the number of cuts that are crossed by any switching path.
