Non-associative, Non-commutative Multi-modal Linear Logic

Adding multi-modalities (called subexponentials) to linear logic enhances its power as a logical framework, which has been extensively used in the specification of e.g. proof systems, programming languages and bigraphs. Initially, subexponentials allowed for classical, linear, affine or relevant behaviors. Recently, this framework was enhanced so to allow for commutativity as well. In this work, we close the cycle by considering associativity. We show that the resulting system (acLLΣ ) admits the (multi)cut rule, and we prove two undecidability results for fragments/variations of acLLΣ

Full Nonassociative Lambek Calculus with Modalities and Its Applications in Type Grammars

Wydział Matematyki i InformatykiRozprawa jest poświęcona pełnemu niełącznemu rachunkowi Lambeka wzbogaconemu o różne modalności. Te systemy tworzą pewną rodzinę logik substrukturalnych. W rozprawie badamy rachunki NL (niełączny rachunek Lambeka), DFNL (pełny niełączny rachunek Lambeka z prawami dystrybutywności dla operacji kratowych) i BFNL (DFNL z negacją spełniającą prawa algebr Boole’a) oraz ich rozszerzenia o operatory modalne, tworzące parę rezyduacji i spełniające standardowe aksjomaty logik modalnych (T), (4) i (5). Rozważamy też gramatyki typów oparte na tych rachunkach. Główne wyniki: twierdzenie o eliminacji cięć dla modalnych rozszerzeń NL z założeniami, wielomianowa złożoność relacji konsekwencji dla tych systemów, lemat interpolacyjny dla modalnych rozszerzeń DFNL i BFNL z założeniami, silna własność skończonego modelu dla tych systemów, rozstrzygalność relacji konsekwencji dla tyc systemów, PSPACE-zupełność rachunku BFNL, bezkontekstowość języków generowanych przez gramatyki typów oparte na tych rachunkach. Rozprawa kontynuuje wcześniejsze badania W. Buszkowskiego, M. Farulewskiego, M. Moortgata, A.. Plummera, N. Kurtoniny i innych.The thesis is devoted to full nonassociative Lambek calculus enriched with different modalities. These systems form a family of substrutural logics. In this thesis we study systems NL (nonassociative Lambek calculus), DFNL (full nonassociative Lambek calculus with the distributive laws for lattice operations) and BFNL (DFNL with negation satisfying the laws of Boolean algebras) and their extensions by modal operators, being a residuation pair and fulfilling standard axioms of modal logics (T), (4), (5). We also consider the type grammars based on these calculi. Main results: the cut-elimination theorem for modal extensions of NL with assumptions, the polynomial-time complexity of the consequence relations for these systems, an interpolation lemma for modal extensions of DFNL and BFNL with assumptions, the strong finite model property of the latter systems, the decidability of the consequence relations for the latter systems, the PSPACE-completeness of BFNL, the context-freeness of the languages generated by the type grammars based on these systems. The thesis continues some research of W. Buszkowski, M. Farulewski, M. Moortgat, A. Plummer,, N. Kurtonina and others

The Lambek-Grishin calculus is NP-complete

The Lambek-Grishin calculus LG is the symmetric extension of the non-associative Lambek calculus NL. In this paper we prove that the derivability problem for LG is NP-complete

Proof nets for display logic

This paper explores several extensions of proof nets for the Lambek calculus in order to handle the different connectives of display logic in a natural way. The new proof net calculus handles some recent additions to the Lambek vocabulary such as Galois connections and Grishin interactions. It concludes with an exploration of the generative capacity of the Lambek-Grishin calculus, presenting an embedding of lexicalized tree adjoining grammars into the Lambek-Grishin calculus

A Faithful Representation of Non-Associative Lambek Grammars in Abstract Categorial Grammars

International audienceThis paper solves a natural but still open question: can Abstract Categorial Grammars (ACGs) respresent usual categorial grammars? Despite their name and their claim to be a unifying framework, up to now there was no faithful representation of usual categorial grammars in ACGs. This paper shows that Non-Associative Lambek grammars as well as their derivations can be defined using ACGs of order two. To conclude, the outcomes of such a representation are discussed
