Simple multiplicative proof nets with units
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a simple notion of proof net for multiplicative linear logic with units. Cut elimination is direct and strongly normalising, in contrast to previous approaches which resorted to moving jumps (attachments) of par units during normalisation. Composition in the resulting category of proof nets is simply path composition: all of the dynamics happens in GoI(Setp), the geometry-of-interaction construction applied to the category of sets and partial functions.

On Proof Nets for Multiplicative Linear Logic with Units
In this paper we present a theory of proof nets for full multiplicative linear logic, including the two units. It naturally extends the well-known theory of unit-free multiplicative proof nets. A linking is no longer a set of axiom links but a tree in which the axiom links are subtrees. These trees will be identified according to an equivalence relation based on a simple form of graph rewriting...

These trees will be identified according to an equivalence relation based on a simple form ...
متن کاملJump from Parallel to Sequential Proofs: Multiplicatives
We introduce a new class of multiplicative proof nets, J-proof nets, which are a typed version of Faggian and Maurel’s multiplicative L-nets. In J-proof nets, we can characterize nets with different degrees of sequentiality, by gradual insertion of sequentiality constraints. As a byproduct, we obtain a simple proof of the sequentialisation theorem.
متن کاملRetractile Proof Nets of the Purely Multiplicative and Additive Fragment of Linear Logic
Proof nets are a parallel syntax for sequential proofs of linear logic, firstly introduced by Girard in 1987. Here we present and intrinsic (geometrical) characterization of proof nets, that is a correctness criterion (an algorithm) for checking those proof structures which correspond to proofs of the purely multiplicative and additive fragment of linear logic. This criterion is formulated in t...
متن کاملMALL proof nets identify proofs modulo rule commutation
The proof nets for MALL (Multiplicative Additive Linear Logic [2], without units) introduced in [4, 5] solved numerous issues with monomial proof nets [3], for example: • There is a simple (deterministic) translation function from cut-free proofs to proof nets. • Cut elimination is simply defined and strongly normalising. • Proof nets form a semi (i.e., unit-free) star-autonomous category with ...
