This paper presents a new method – which does not rely on the cut-elimination theorem – for characterizing the provably total functions of certain intuitionistic subsystems of ...
Focalization property is a deep outcome of linear logic proof theory, putting to the foreground the role of polarity in logic. It resulted an important advances in various fields, ...
The method of logical relations is a classic technique for proving the equivalence of higher-order programs that implement the same observable behavior but employ different intern...

Church's Thesis asserts that the only numeric functions that can be calculated by effective means are the recursive ones, which are the same, extensionally, as the Turingle nu...
We describe a new program termination analysis designed to handle imperative programs whose termination depends on the mutation rogram's heap. We first describe how an abstrac...
