Semantics of Linear/Modal Lambda Calculus

In previous work the author has introduced a lambda calculus SLR with modal and linear types which serves as an extension of Bellantoni-Cook's function algebra BC to higher types. It is a step towards a functional programming language in which all programs run in polynomial time. While this previous work was concerned with the syntactic metatheory of SLR in this paper we develop a semantics of SLR in terms of Chu spaces over a certain category of sheaves from which it follows that all expressible functions are indeed in PTIME. We notice a similarity between the Chu space interpretation and CPS translation which as we hope will have further applications in functional programming.
