A Canonical Form for Universe Levels in Impredicative Type Theory

Authors: Yoan Géran

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

Abstract
The 0-imax-successor algebra, where imax: ℕ × ℕ → ℕ is the function defined by imax(n, 0) = 0 and imax(n, S(m)) = max(n, S(m)), is used to represent universe levels in impredicative type theory, in particular with universe polymorphism which introduces level variables, so it is present in proof systems such as Rocq and Lean. In particular, we need to know when two elements of this algebra are equivalent, and we may also want to decide the inequality. In this article, we introduce a canonical form for the terms of this algebra, and we provide a canonization algorithm. It permits deciding level equivalence by checking the canonical form equality, and also permits easily checking if a level is smaller than another one.

Monad Translations for Higher-Order Logic

Authors: Thomas Traversié

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

Abstract
Classical logic can be embedded into intuitionistic logic by inserting double negations in formulas. Several translations generalize this idea by using monad operators instead of double negations. They eliminate particular axioms, for instance the principle of excluded middle or the principle of explosion, and therefore can be used to embed classical logic into intuitionistic logic or intuitionistic logic into minimal logic. Such translations have been defined for first-order logic. In this paper, we define a translation, parameterized by monad operators, for higher-order logic. In particular, the property that any formula and its translation are equivalent in the presence of the eliminated axiom holds under functional extensionality and propositional extensionality. We apply this translation to embed higher-order classical (respectively intuitionistic) logic into higher-order intuitionistic (respectively minimal) logic. By adapting Friedman’s trick, we show that coherent formulas correspond to a constructive fragment of higher-order classical logic, meaning that we can transform classical proofs into intuitionistic proofs without modifying the proven statements.

Encoding Agda Programs Using Rewriting

Authors: Guillaume Genestier

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 167, 5th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2020)

Abstract
We present in this paper an encoding in an extension with rewriting of the Edimburgh Logical Framework (LF) [Harper et al., 1993] of two common features: universe polymorphism and eta-convertibility. This encoding is at the root of the translator between Agda and Dedukti developped by the author.

Dependency Pairs Termination in Dependent Type Theory Modulo Rewriting

Authors: Frédéric Blanqui, Guillaume Genestier, and Olivier Hermant

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

Abstract
Dependency pairs are a key concept at the core of modern automated termination provers for first-order term rewriting systems. In this paper, we introduce an extension of this technique for a large class of dependently-typed higher-order rewriting systems. This extends previous results by Wahlstedt on the one hand and the first author on the other hand to strong normalization and non-orthogonal rewriting systems. This new criterion is implemented in the type-checker Dedukti.

A Semantic Proof that Reducibility Candidates entail Cut Elimination

Authors: Denis Cousineau and Olivier Hermant

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 15, 23rd International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA'12) (2012)

Abstract
Two main lines have been adopted to prove the cut elimination theorem: the syntactic one, that studies the process of reducing cuts, and the semantic one, that consists in interpreting a sequent in some algebra and extracting from this interpretation a cut-free proof of this very sequent. A link between those two methods was exhibited by studying in a semantic way, syntactical tools that allow to prove (strong) normalization of proof-terms, namely reducibility candidates. In the case of deduction modulo, a framework combining deduction and rewriting rules in which theories like Zermelo set theory and higher order logic can be expressed, this is obtained by constructing a reducibility candidates valued model. The existence of such a pre-model for a theory entails strong normalization of its proof-terms and, by the usual syntactic argument, the cut elimination property. In this paper, we strengthen this gate between syntactic and semantic methods, by providing a full semantic proof that the existence of a pre-model entails the cut elimination property for the considered theory in deduction modulo. We first define a new simplified variant of reducibility candidates à la Girard, that is sufficient to prove weak normalization of proof-terms (and therefore the cut elimination property). Then we build, from some model valued on the pre-Heyting algebra of those WN reducibility candidates, a regular model valued on a Heyting algebra on which we apply the usual soundness/strong completeness argument. Finally, we discuss further extensions of this new method towards normalization by evaluation techniques that commonly use Kripke semantics.
