S-storage operators
In 1990, J.L. Krivine introduced the notion of storage operator to simulate,
for Church integers, the "call by value" in a context of a "call by name"
strategy. In this present paper, we define, for every -term S which
realizes the successor function on Church integers, the notion of S-storage
operator. We prove that every storage operator is a $S-storage operator. But
the converse is not always true
Strong normalization of lambda-Sym-Prop- and lambda-bar-mu-mu-tilde-star- calculi
In this paper we give an arithmetical proof of the strong normalization of
lambda-Sym-Prop of Berardi and Barbanera [1], which can be considered as a
formulae-as-types translation of classical propositional logic in natural
deduction style. Then we give a translation between the
lambda-Sym-Prop-calculus and the lambda-bar-mu-mu-tilde-star-calculus, which is
the implicational part of the lambda-bar-mu-mu-tilde-calculus invented by
Curien and Herbelin [3] extended with negation. In this paper we adapt the
method of David and Nour [4] for proving strong normalization. The novelty in
our proof is the notion of zoom-in sequences of redexes, which leads us
directly to the proof of the main theorem
