Let D be a (2 × 2) matrix with distinct eigenvalues λ1 and λ2. There is a basic and well known functional equation which provides a formula for constructing the matrix g (D), for any ℂ-valued function g defined on a subset of ℂ containing {λ1,λ2}, namely .This equation is used to give a direct and transparent proof of the following fact due to Anderson: A pair of (2 × 2) selfadjoint matrices A1 and A2 commute if and only if the Weyl functional calculus of the pair (A1,A2), which is a matrix-valued distribution, has order zero (that is, is a measure).

Milner's action calculus implements abstraction in monoidal categories, so that familiar λ-calculi can be subsumed together with the π-calculus and the Petri nets. Variables are generalised to names, which allow only a restricted form of substitution.In the present paper, the well-known categorical semantics of the λ-calculus is generalised to the action calculus. A suitable functional completeness theorem for symmetric monoidal categories is proved: we determine the conditions under which the abstraction is definable. Algebraically, the distinction between the variables and the names boils do

Abstract:
AbstractWell-bounded operators are those which possess a bounded functional calculus for the absolutely continuous functions on some compact interval. Depending on the weak compactness of this functional calculus, one obtains one of two types of spectral theorem for these operators. A method is given which enables one to obtain both spectral theorems by simply changing the topology used. Even for the case of well-bounded operators of type (B), the proof given is more elementary than that previously in the literature.

Many methods of modern quantum field theory rely heavily on functionals of classical fields; this notion is however problematic whenever anticommuting fields are present. We propose a calculus for such functionals which avoids the use of auxiliary Grassmann algebras, and which relies on an infinite-dimensional version of Berezin-Leites supermanifold theory. We begin by studying “functional power series expansions” without growth conditions; this already allows to make e.g. the Yang-Mills action functional with fermionic, anticommuting matter fields a well-defined mathematical object.

Abstract:
AbstractIt is well-known that the winning region of a parity game with n nodes and k priorities can be computed as a k-nested fixpoint of a suitable function; straightforward computation of this nested fixpoint requires $$\mathcal {O}(n^{\frac{k}{2}})$$ O ( n k 2 ) iterations of the function. Calude et al.’s recent quasipolynomial-time parity game solving algorithm essentially shows how to compute the same fixpoint in only quasipolynomially many iterations by reducing parity games to quasipolynomially sized safety games. Universal graphs have been used to modularize this transformation of parity games to equivalent safety games that are obtained by combining the original game with a universal graph. We show that this approach naturally generalizes to the computation of solutions of systems of any fixpoint equations over finite lattices; hence, the solution of fixpoint equation systems can be computed by quasipolynomially many iterations of the equations. We present applications to modal fixpoint logics and games beyond relational semantics. For instance, the model checking problems for the energy $$\mu $$ μ -calculus, finite latticed $$\mu $$ μ -calculi, and the graded and the (two-valued) probabilistic $$\mu $$ μ -calculus – with numbers coded in binary – can be solved via nested fixpoints of functions that differ substantially from the function for parity games but still can be computed in quasipolynomial time; our result hence implies that model checking for these $$\mu $$ μ -calculi is in $$\textsc {QP}$$ QP . Moreover, we improve the exponent in known exponential bounds on satisfiability checking.

Abstract:
AbstractLogical relations are one among the most powerful techniques in the theory of programming languages, and have been used extensively for proving properties of a variety of higher-order calculi. However, there are properties that cannot be immediately proved by means of logical relations, for instance program continuity and differentiability in higher-order languages extended with real-valued functions. Informally, the problem stems from the fact that these properties are naturally expressed on terms of non-ground type (or, equivalently, on open terms of base type), and there is no apparent good definition for a base case (i.e. for closed terms of ground types). To overcome this issue, we study a generalization of the concept of a logical relation, called open logical relation, and prove that it can be fruitfully applied in several contexts in which the property of interest is about expressions of first-order type. Our setting is a simply-typed $$\lambda $$ λ -calculus enriched with real numbers and real-valued first-order functions from a given set, such as the one of continuous or differentiable functions. We first prove a containment theorem stating that for any collection of real-valued first-order functions including projection functions and closed under function composition, any well-typed term of first-order type denotes a function belonging to that collection. Then, we show by way of open logical relations the correctness of the core of a recently published algorithm for forward automatic differentiation. Finally, we define a refinement-based type system for local continuity in an extension of our calculus with conditionals, and prove the soundness of the type system using open logical relations.

Abstract:
AbstractCartesian differential categories are categories equipped with a differential combinator which axiomatizes the directional derivative. Important models of Cartesian differential categories include classical differential calculus of smooth functions and categorical models of the differential $$\lambda $$ λ -calculus. However, Cartesian differential categories cannot account for other interesting notions of differentiation such as the calculus of finite differences or the Boolean differential calculus. On the other hand, change action models have been shown to capture these examples as well as more “exotic” examples of differentiation. However, change action models are very general and do not share the nice properties of a Cartesian differential category. In this paper, we introduce Cartesian difference categories as a bridge between Cartesian differential categories and change action models. We show that every Cartesian differential category is a Cartesian difference category, and how certain well-behaved change action models are Cartesian difference categories. In particular, Cartesian difference categories model both the differential calculus of smooth functions and the calculus of finite differences. Furthermore, every Cartesian difference category comes equipped with a tangent bundle monad whose Kleisli category is again a Cartesian difference category.

Abstract:
The notion of computability predicate developed by Tail gives a powerful method for proving normalization for various λ-calculi. There are actually two versions of this method: a typed and an untyped approach. In the former approach we define a computability predicate over well-typed terms. This technique was developed by Tail (1967) in order to prove normalization for Gödel’s system T. His method was extended by Girard (1971) for his System F and by Martin-Löf (1971) for his type theory. The second approach is similar to Kleene’s realizability interpretation (Kleene 1945), but in this approach formulas are realized by (not necessarily well-typed) λ-terms rather than Gödel numbers. This technique was developed by Tail (1975) where he uses this method to obtain a simplified proof of normalization for Girard’s system F. The method was later rediscovered independently by several others, for instance Mitchell (1986). There are two ways of defining typed λ-calculus: we have either equality as conversion (on raw terms) or equality as judgments. It is more difficult to show in the theory with equality as judgments that every well-typed term has a normal form of the same type. We can find different approaches to how to solve this problem in Altenkirch (1993), Coquand (1991), Goguen (1994) and Martin-Löf (1975). There are several papers addressing normalization for calculi with equality as untyped conversion; two relevant papers showing normalization are Altenkirch’s (1994) proof for system F using the untyped method and Werner’s (1994) proof for the calculus of constructions with inductive types using the other method. Another difference is the predicative and impredicative formulations of λ-calculi where it is more intricate to prove normalization for the impredicative ones. The aim of this paper is to give a simple argument of normalization for a theory with “real” dependent types, i.e. a theory in which we can define types by recursion on the natural numbers (like Nn). For this we choose to study the simplest theory that has such types, namely the N, Π, U-fragment of Martin-Löf’s polymorphic type theory (Martin-Löf 1972) which contains the natural numbers, dependent functions and one universe. This theory has equality as conversion and is predicative.
