Abstract

Under the extension of Curry-Howard's correspondence to classical logic, Gentzen's NK and LK systems can be seen as syntax-directed systems of simple types respectively for Parigot's Lambda Mu Calculus and Curien-Herbelin's Lambda Bar Mu Mu Tidle Calculus. We aim at showing their computational equivalence. We define translations between these calculi. We prove simulation theorems for an undirected evaluation as well as for call-by-name and call-by-value evaluations.

Extended Frege proofs, circuits and rewriting

Inspired by a statement about Extended Frege proof systems by Jain and Jin (FOCS 2022) we prove that: - there is a p-time binary relation $\approx$ between circuits that implies their logical equivalence, - if the equivalence $C \equiv D$ has an Extended Frege or a Circuit Frege proof with $k$ steps then there is a chain of circuits $E_i$ $$ C = E_0 \approx \dots \approx E_t = D $$ with $t \le O(k \log k)$, and the total size of the chain is bounded above by $(k+|C|+|D|)^{O(1)}$.

Canonical expansions of $\mathbb R_{\mathcal Q}$-germs

Let $\mathcal{H}_{\mathcal{Q}}$ be the field of unary germs at $0^+$ definable in the quasianalytic o-minimal structure $\mathbb{R}_{\mathcal{Q}}$ of Kaiser-Rolin-Speissegger. We construct a canonical ordered differential-field embedding of $\mathcal{H}_{\mathcal{Q}}$ into the field of natural-support generalized Laurent series. Every unary germ has a unique such asymptotic expansion, and bounded germs have expansions with only nonnegative exponents. A germ admits a convergent generalized Laurent-series representation exactly when its canonical expansion converges; in that case, every convergent representation with well-ordered support is canonical. We also prove that $\mathbb{R}_{\mathcal{Q}}$ is branching in the sense of Dembner [1]. A nonresonant hyperbolic saddle with divergent Dulac series yields a bounded positive real-analytic $\mathbb{R}_{\mathcal{Q}}$-definable germ whose canonical generalized power series diverges. This gives a negative answer to a question of Dembner asking whether every unary germ definable in a branching structure admits a convergent generalized power-series representation. Nevertheless, every bounded unary $\mathbb{R}_{\mathcal{Q}}$-germ has a canonical formal generalized power-series expansion. Consequently, the convergent germs form a proper ordered differential subfield of $\mathcal{H}_{\mathcal{Q}}$.
