Decidability of the restriction equational theory in the partial lambda calculus
1989
Theoretical Computer Science
In his thesis about partiality and A-calculus Eugenio Moggi raised the following conjecture: the equational theory Tr (see definition below) corresponding to the restriction in the partial A-calculus is ...
Testing the truth of this conjecture is very important because one of the results in Moggi's thesis is the confluence of the partial A-calculus modulo the theory Tr . ...
In his thesis, Moggi showed the confluence of the partial A-calculus modulo the equational theory T[ (see definition below) corresponding to the restriction, and he conjectured that the theory Tr was aecidable ...

We then show that the type normal form allows to reduce the standard beta-eta equational theory of the lambda calculus to a specialized version of itself, while preserving the completeness of equality ...
We end by describing an alternative representation of normal terms of the lambda calculus with sums, together with a Coq-implemented converter into/from our new term calculus. ...

Lambda theories of effective lambda models
[article]
2007
arXiv
pre-print
A longstanding open problem is whether there exists a non-syntactical model of untyped lambda-calculus whose theory is exactly the least equational lambda-theory (=Lb). ...
In this paper we make use of the Visser topology for investigating the more general question of whether the equational (resp. order) theory of a non syntactical model M, say Eq(M) (resp. ...
The authors do not know any example of unsolvable satisfying the above condition. ...

The theory of LLAs can be regarded as axiomatizing the equations that hold between the contexts of the lambda calculus, as opposed to lambda terms with free variables. ...
The present paper gives several properties of LLAs and of lambda-calculus. The lattice of subvarieties of LLAs is proved to be isomorphic to the lattice of lambda theories. ...

We present a survey of some developments in the general area of category-theoretic approaches to the theory of computation, with a focus on topics and ideas particularly close to the interests of Jim Lambek ...
Conclusion We hope that we have shown in this -admittedly biased-overview of categorical recursion theory how various of Lambek's seminal ideas have initiated and inspired numerous strands of research ...
We also hope to have conveyed to the reader that there are still many interesting unanswered questions and relatively unexplored facets of categorical recursion theory that deserve further investigation ...
