Combinators for Interaction Nets
نویسنده
چکیده
The completeness property of SK combinators is well known. We consider an analogous property in the context of Lafont's Interaction Nets, a graph rewriting system based on classical linear logic. The result is a set of combinators which is complete in the sense of being able to encode all possible patterns of interaction.

Observational Equivalence for the Interaction Combinators and Internal Separation
We define an observational equivalence for Lafont’s interaction combinators, which we prove to be the least discriminating non-trivial congruence on total nets (nets admitting a deadlock-free normal form) respecting reduction. More interestingly, this equivalence enjoys an internal separation property similar to that of Böhm’s Theorem for the λ-calculus.
متن کاملA denotational semantics for the symmetric interaction combinators
The symmetric interaction combinators are a variant of Lafont’s interaction combinators. They enjoy a weaker universality property with respect to interaction nets, but are equally expressive. They are a model of deterministic distributed computation, sharing the good properties of Turing machines (elementary reductions) and of the λ-calculus (higher-order functions, parallel execution). We int...
متن کاملObservational Equivalence and Full Abstraction in the Symmetric Interaction Combinators
The symmetric interaction combinators are an equally expressive variant of Lafont’s interaction combinators. They are a graph-rewriting model of deterministic computation. We define two notions of observational equivalence for them, analogous to normal form and head normal form equivalence in the lambda-calculus. Then, we prove a full abstraction result for each of the two equivalences. This is...
متن کاملUniversal Boolean Systems
Boolean interaction systems and hard interaction systems define nets of interacting cells. They are based on the same local interaction principle between two cells as interaction nets but do not allow that the structure of nets may evolve. With boolean nets, it is not possible to create or destroy cells or links between existing cells. They are very similar to hardware circuits but based on an ...
متن کاملEdifices and Full Abstraction for the Symmetric Interaction Combinators
The symmetric interaction combinators are a variant of Lafont’s interaction combinators. They are a graph-rewriting model of parallel deterministic computation. We define a notion analogous to that of head normal form in the λ-calculus, and make a semantical study of the corresponding observational equivalence. We associate with each net a compact metric space, called edifice, and prove that tw...
