Expressing Ecumenical Systems in the ??-Calculus Modulo Theory

Abstract

Systems in which classical and intuitionistic logics coexist are called ecumenical. Such a system allows for interoperability and hybridization between classical and constructive propositions and proofs. We study Ecumenical STT, a theory expressed in the logical framework of the ??-calculus modulo theory. We prove soudness and conservativity of four subtheories of Ecumenical STT with respect to constructive and classical predicate logic and simple type theory. We also prove the weak normalization of well-typed terms and thus the consistency of Ecumenical STT
