Extending the Explicit Substitution Paradigm
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a simple term language with explicit operators for erasure, duplication and substitution enjoying a sound and complete correspondence with the intuitionistic fragment of Linear Logic’s Proof Nets. We establish the good operational behaviour of the language by means of some fundamental properties such as confluence, preservation of strong normalisation, strong normalisation of well-typed terms and step by step simulation. This formalism is the first term calculus with explicit substitutions having full composition and preserving strong normalisation.

Higher - Order Unification via Explicit Substitutions at a Distance
We adapted the unification procedure of Huet for a family of explicit substitutions (ES) calculi. The novelty of this adaptation is that it works for calculi with explicit substitutions that belong to the paradigm known as “at a distance”. In this kind of calculi, which have attracted quite some attention due to their simplicity and applicability, the substitution operation is not propagated ov...
متن کاملPreservation of Strong Normalisation in Named Lambda Calculi with Explicit Substitution and Garbage Collection
In this paper we introduce and study a new-calculus with explicit substitution, xgc, which has two distinguishing features: rst, it retains the use of traditional variable names, specifying terms modulo renaming; this simpliies the reduction system. Second, it includes reduction rules for explicit garbage collection; this simpliies several proofs. We show that xgc is a conservative extension wh...
متن کاملExtending the Qualitative Trajectory Calculus Based on the Concept of Accessibility of Moving Objects in the Paths
Qualitative spatial representation and reasoning are among the important capabilities in intelligent geospatial information system development. Although a large contribution to the study of moving objects has been attributed to the quantitative use and analysis of data, such calculations are ineffective when there is little inaccurate data on position and geometry or when explicitly explaining ...
متن کاملExtending a -calculus with Explicit Substitution Which Preserves Strong Normalisation into a Connuent Calculus on Open Terms
The last fteen years have seen an explosion in work on explicit substitution, most of which is done in the style of the-calculus. In (Kamareddine & R os, 1995a), we extended the-calculus with explicit substitutions by turning de Bruijn's meta-operators into object-operators ooering a style of explicit substitution that diiers from that of. The resulting calculus, s, remains as close as possible...
متن کاملCalculi of Generalized beta-Reduction and Explicit Substitutions: The Type-Free and Simply Typed Versions
Extending the λ-calculus with either explicit substitution or generalized reduction has been the subject of extensive research recently, and still has many open problems. This paper is the first investigation into the properties of a calculus combining both generalized reduction and explicit substitutions. We present a calculus, λgs, that combines a calculus of explicit substitution, λs, and a ...
