The Lambda-calculus, Combinatory Logic, and Type Systems Overview: Three interrelated topics at the heart of logic and computer science. The -Calculus A pure calculus of functional abstraction and function application, with applications throughout logic and computer science. Types The -calculus is good tool for exploring type systems, invaluable both in the foundations of mathematics and for practical programming languages. Pure Type Systems A further generalisation and systematic presentation of the class of type systems found in the -cube. Combinators Combinatory logic shows that bound variables can be eliminated without loss of expressiveness. It has applications both in the foundations of mathematics and in the implementation of functional programming languages. Programming Languages The connections between the lambda-calculus and programming languages are diverse and pervasive. Type systems are an important aspect of programming language design. The -cube A graphical presentation of the relationship between combinatory logic, lambda calculi and related logical systems. The -cube A graphical presentation of the relationship between various typed -calculi, illuminating the structure of Coquand's Calculus of Constructions.

5. An Introduction To Lambda Calculus And Scheme The Scheme programming language is essentially the lambdacalculus outlined above, plus . Advantages of a lambda-calculus-based programming language http://www.jetcafe.org/jim/lambda.html

$Id: lambda.html,v 1.2 2001/02/01 01:43:43 jim Exp jim $ An Introduction to Lambda Calculus and Scheme Jim Larson This talk was given at the JPL Section 312 Programming Lunchtime Seminar. Functions and Lambda Notation A function accepts input and produces an output. Suppose we have a "chocolate-covering" function that produces the following outputs for the corresponding inputs: peanuts -> chocolate-covered peanuts rasins -> chocolate-covered rasins ants -> chocolate-covered ants We can use Lambda-calculus to describe such a function: Lx.chocolate-covered x This is called a lambda-expression. (Here the "L" is supposed to be a lowercase Greek "lambda" character). If we want to apply the function to an argument, we use the following syntax: (Lx.chocolate-covered x)peanuts -> chocolate-covered peanuts Functions can also be the result of applying a lambda-expression, as with this "covering function maker": Ly.Lx.y-covered x We can use this to create a caramel-covering function: (Ly.Lx.y-covered x)caramel -> Lx.caramel-covered x (Lx.caramel-covered x)peanuts -> caramel-covered peanuts Functions can also be the inputs to other functions, as with this "apply-to-ants" function:

Next Page: Lambda Calculus and A++: Contents Up: Back to Entry Page New book on A++ and the Lambda Calculus available! Lambda Calculus A++ Basic Concepts Introduction The Lambda Calculus has been created by the American logician Alonzo Church in the 1930's and is documented in his works published in 1941 under the title `The Calculi of Lambda Conversion' Alonzo Church wanted to formulate a mathematical logical system and had no intent to create a programming language. The intrinsic relationship of his system to programming was discovered much later in a time in which programming of computers became an issue. The Lambda Calculus has stayed alive above all in the context of functional programming. It has gained a major importance in the area of compiler construction for functional languages like Haskell, SML, Miranda and others. In this article the importance of the Lambda Calculus is extended to non-functional languages like Java, C, and C++ as well. The article uses A++, a programming language directly derived from the Lambda Calculus, as a vehicle to demonstrate the application of the basic ideas of the Lambda Calculus in a multi-paradigm environment. As a mathematical logical system the Lambda Calculus is covered in detail in [ ] and less comprehensively but in a more readable form in [ ]. A clear account of the historical origins and basic properties of the lambda calculus is presented by Curry and Fey in their book [

Lisp was the first of these although only the "pure" Lisp sublanguage can be called a true functional language. Haskell, Miranda and ML are more recent examples. also provides the meta-language for formal definitions in denotational semantics . It has a good claim to be the prototype programming language. application abstraction A function abstraction is an expression for a function. The identifier is the name of the parameter; it is said to be bound . An unbound identifier is free . The function itself has no name. Application is left associative: f x y=(f x)y. It is convenient, but not essential , to add an option for constants. application abstraction The clause for constants can be omitted because constants can be defined with what is left but this is inconvenient and does not aid our purpose. (But see [ints] [bool] and [list] The previous grammar forces the use of prefix notation. It costs nothing to extend the grammar to include prefix and infix operators.

20. A++ An Educational Programming Language Based On The Lambda Calculus A++ is a programming language helping students quickly and thoroughly understand the essentials and become familiar with powerful programming patterns http://www.aplusplus.net/

A++ An Educational Programming Language: The Language A++ is a programming language created for the sole purpose to help people interested in programming to thoroughly understand as quickly and efficiently as possible the essentials of the art of programming . By learning A++ students not only get a deep comprehension of programming very quickly but at the same time they acquire powerful pattern recognition skills that can be applied in most programming languages. A++ , being based on the Lambda Calculus, can be considered to be a hard-core programming language consisting of elements that cannot be further split up or disintegrated whereas other languages have a lot of bells and whistles and many soft features very useful to cope with practical programming problems. Learning the art of programming cannot be accomplished however by becoming familiar with all these nice and handy soft features a programming language has to offer but by learning how to cope with programming problems by continuously applying Abstraction Reference and Synthesis from the beginning to the end.

The next thing we need is a way to abstract out common process patterns into descriptions. This is done via lambda, the anonymous function. For instance, (lambda (x) (+ x 1)) is a function that takes in an evaluated argument, binds it with x, and then computes the body of the lambda form with the understanding that any occurrence of parameter x in the body will refer to the value of x bound by the lambda form. In this case, the returned result will be the argument plus one, and the argument will not be side effected. To invoke an anonymous function, we simply invoke it like any other function. We invoked sine like this: (sin 3). Invoking (lambda (x) (+ x 1)) on the argument 3 would look like this:

A primary current research interest is optimal evaluation in lambda calculus and its computational complexity. I also do fundamental research in algorithmics and algorithm analysis. Optimal evaluation: An evaluator for lambda calculus (or more broadly speaking, a functional programming language) is said to be correct and optimal if it returns a normal form whenever there is one (i.e., it never diverges by choosing to evaluate the wrong redex), and never does inessential work (i.e., copying redexes). Recently, several researchers, including Lamping, Gonthier, Abadi, Levy, and Asperti, have constructed optimal evaluators. But are they efficient? I have examined the computational complexity of this problem via the algorithmic analysis of these proposed evaluators. In addition, this work has addressed what reasonable

Programming lambda calculus Lambda calculus, considered to be the mathematical basis for programming language, is a calculus developed by Alonzo Church and Stephen Kleene in the 1930s to express all computable�functions.� In an effort to formalize the concept of computability (also known as constructibility and effective calculability), Church and Kleene developed a powerful language with a simple� syntax and few grammar restrictions. The language deals with the application of a function to its arguments (a function is a set of rules) and expresses any entity as either a variable, the application of one function to another, or as a "lambda abstraction" (a function in which the Greek letter�lambda is defined as the abstraction operator). Lambda calculus, and the closely related theories of combinators and type systems, are important foundations in the study of mathematics, logic, and computer programming language.

BAT: The Bit-level Analysis Tool Pete Manolios (Northeastern University) The Bit-level Analysis Tool (BAT) is a system for verifying bit-level problems arising from hardware, software, and security domains. BAT implements a state-of-the-art decision procedure for solving quantifier-free formulas over the extensional theory of fixed-size bit-vectors and fixed-size bit-vector arrays (memories). Our primary goal in developing BAT is to enable the verification of system-level properties of systems described at the bit-level; an example is the verification of bit-level pipelined machine models. Key features of the BAT system are an expressive strongly-typed modeling and specification language, a fully automatic and efficient memory abstraction algorithm for extensional arrays, and a novel CNF generation algorithm. The BAT system can be used to automatically solve system-level RTL (Register Transfer Level) verification problems that were previously intractable, such as refinement-based verification of RTL-level pipelined machines.

This course is about the gapp between computer science theory and practise. It consists of a written exam (75%) mainly on Lambda calculus and coursework (35%) written in Lisp. The three themes of the course are: Practise—programming in Lisp Theory—a formal theory of computation Link—how theory and practise influence each other There are several styles of programming: Unstructured deals with manipulating bytes (e.g Assembler) Procedural based around control structures and functions (C-Like, e.g Pascal and Algol) Object-Oriented helps represent ideas, for when programs get too big for procedural languages to stay effective (Java, C++, etc) Declarative Prolog Functional Lisp-like languages, the topic of this course In functional programming, one of the key concepts is that variables are kept as local as possible.

Church’s lambda calculus is equivalent in power to the Turing machine, although Church and Turing both developed their respective models of computation independently. We attempt to explain to the fundamental principles of the lambda calculus in a clear, concise, and easy to understand fashion.

Perl contains the -calculus -Calculus (pronounced `lambda calculus') is a model of computation invented by Alonzo Church in 1934. It's analogous to Turing machines, but it's both simpler and more practical. Where the Turing machine is something like a model of assembly language, the -calculus is a model of function application. Like Turing machines, it defines a simplified programming language that you can write real programs in. Writing Turing machine programs is like writing in assembly language, but writing -calculus programs is more like writing in a higher-level language, because it has functions. The two legal operations in the -calculus are to construct a function of one argument with a specified body, and to invoke one of these functions on an argument. What can be in the body of the function? Any legal expression, but expressions are limited to variables, function constructions, and function invocations. What can the argument be? It has to be another function; functions are all you have. With this tiny amount of machinery, we can construct a programming language that can express any computation that any other language can express. Unlike most popular programming languages, Perl is powerful enough to express the

52. Lambda Calculus Less familiar are two separate developments one in programming, the other in proof theory in which lambda calculus has played a key role http://users.comlab.ox.ac.uk/luke.ong/teaching/lambda/

Lambda Calculus C.-H. L. Ong Sixteen-hour lecture course. Final-year computer science undergraduate / MSc Nature and aim of the course Lambda calculus is a theory of functions that is central to (theoretical) computer science. It is well known that all recursive functions are representable as lambda terms: the representation is so compelling that definability in the calculus may as well be regarded as a definition of computability. This forms part of the standard foundations of computer science and mathematics. Less familiar are two separate developments one in programming, the other in proof theory in which lambda calculus has played a key role: Lambda calculus is the commonly accepted basis of functional programming languages; and it is folklore that the calculus is the prototypical functional language in purified form. The idea that there is a close relation between proof theory and a theory of functions is an old one. It underlies the Kolmogorov-Brouwer-Heyting interpretation of intuitionistic logic, and the Curry-Howard isomorphism between natural deduction and typed lambda calculus. We develop the syntax and semantics of lambda calculus along these two themes. The aim of this course is to provide the foundation for an important aspect of the semantics of programming languages with a view to helping enthusiastic research students appreciate (perhaps even begin to address) some of the open problems in the field. The second theme in particular will be followed up by two new courses

The compiler is certified in the sense that it comes with a machine-checked proof of semantics preservation, performed with the Coq proof assistant. The compiler and the terms of its several intermediate languages are given dependent types that guarantee that only well-typed programs are representable. Thus, type preservation for each compiler pass follows without any significant "proofs" of the usual kind. Semantics preservation is proved based on denotational semantics assigned to the intermediate languages. I demonstrate how working with a type-preserving compiler enables type-directed proof search to discharge automatically large parts of the proof obligations.

This article discusses its encoding in Twelf. If you're trying to learn Twelf from this example, you may wish to read the discussion starting in Representing the syntax of the STLC in the tutorial Proving metatheorems with Twelf . That introductory guide discusses this representation of the STLC and why it works in more detail. This page summarizes the judgements of the STLC and the corresponding LF code for reference, but does not explain them in detail. Contents What is illustrated by this example? Encoding of syntax Encoding of judgments Static semantics ... edit What is illustrated by this example? There are simpler examples of LF representations (see, e.g., the natural numbers ). However, the STLC is a good first example of a representation that uses higher-order abstract syntax and higher-order judgments . These two representation techniques drastically simplify the process of representing and proving theorems about many programming languages and logics. The idea is that the binding structure of LF is used to represent the binding structure of the object language. At the level of syntax, this gives alpha-equivalence and capture-avoiding substitution "for free" from the representation. At the level of judgements, this gives the properties of a

University of Pennsylvania Department of Computer and Information Science Technical Report No. MS-CIS-90-18. ABSTRACT: logical framework hereditary Harrop formulas with quantification at all non-predicate types, denoted here as hh , is such a meta-logic that has been implemented in both the Isabelle theorem prover and the λProlog logic programming language. Both frameworks provide for specifications of logics in which details involved with free and bound variable occurrences, substitutions, eigenvariables, and the scope of assumptions within object logics are handled correctly and elegantly at the "meta" level. In this paper, we show how LF can be encoded into hh in a direct and natural way by mapping the typing judgments in LF into propositions in the logic of hh . This translation establishes a very strong connection between these two languages: the order of quantification in an LF signature is exactly the order of a set of hh clauses, and the proofs in one system correspond directly to proofs in the other system. Relating these two languages makes it possible to provide implementations of proof checkers and theorem provers for logics specified in LF by using standard logic programming techniques which can be used to implement

65. Arithmetic In Lambda Calculus - Wolfram Demonstration Project For further details about the complete description of the operational semantics of the lambda calculus, see J. W. Gray, Mastering Mathematica programming http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/ArithmeticInLambdaCalculus/

Arithmetic in Lambda Calculus loadFlash(644, 387, 'ArithmeticInLambdaCalculus'); Lambda calculus was developed by Alonzo Church and Stephen Kleene in 1930 and consists of a single transformation rule (variable substitution) and a single function definition scheme. It is a system capable of universal computation, that is, any computable function that can be computed in any of the standard programming languages can also be done in lambda calculus, though it might be very hard to actually carry out. Only the basic arithmetic operations successor, testing for zero, addition, multiplication, and exponentiation are considered here. The second numeral is not used for successor or testing for zero. The central concept in λ calculus is the "expression". A "name" (or "variable") is an identifier that can be any letter. An expression is defined recursively as follows: In order to apply a function to an argument by substituting the argument for a variable in the body of the function and for giving a name to the function determined by a rule, it is necessary to define the following terms: 1) The identity function: (( 2) Self-application: . Applying this to any expression expr results in (expr expr), which may or may not make sense.

This metalanguage is an extension of the lambda calculus, which provides a formal setting for the specification of classical programming languages. As an intermediary step, we introduce a formal metalanguage called the lambda-p calculus for the specification of programming languages that allow true random number generation. We demonstrate how selected randomized algorithms can be programmed directly in the lambda-p calculus. We also demonstrate how satisfiability can be solved in the lambda-q calculus.

Contents: Lambda Terms Beta Conversion Normal Forms Useful Combinators ... Further Reading Lambda Terms Outermost parentheses may be omitted. x ...x n n MN N n )N n ) (association to the left) xx An occurence of a variable x is bound free Beta Conversion M[x:=N]. We also say syntactic sugar Functions in lambda calculus take only one argument, but we can get the effect of multiple-argument functions: Normal Forms normal form Examples: x is a normal form. A term M has M , then M also has normal form N. However, this does not mean that any Useful Combinators A combinator I K S I is the identity function, and K is the function of two arguments that ignores its second argument and returns its first. K can also be thought of as a function of one argument that returns a constant function: K It can be shown that any combinator can be generated from S and K using only function application. As an exercise, verify that I SKK Define truth values as follows: T F It may not be immediately obvious why these expressions should represent the truth values, but notice that

71. Index-411 The definitive text on the lambda calculus (the theory underlying functional programming) is written by Henk Barendregt there is now a revised edition of http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~robin/class/417/webnotes.html

CPSC417: FOUNDATIONS OF FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING Lecturer: Robin Cockett The purpose of the course is to explore various aspects of functional programming using Haskell. In particular, the course provides an introduction to the lambda calculus, basic type theory, and the role of these in the implementation of functional programming. Why is functional programming important .... It promotes the view of programming as a mathematical activity. It promotes programming with abstractions (generic code). It is type safe .... the Hindley-Milner polymorphic type checker. It allows fast accurate prototyping for complex programs. It has datatypes and monads! COURSE OUTLINE: There will be a midterm exam and a final exam. The course will cover the following topics in roughly this order: Introduction to data, maps, and folds in Haskell (3 lectures + assignment) Monads, classes, and other topics (3 lectures + assignment) Introduction to the lambda calculus (5 lectures) Introduction to rewriting theory (4 lectures + assignment) Type inference (5 lectures + assignment) LECTURE NOTES (as they become available) Introduction: functional programming, Haskell, and HUGS

73. CS520: Programming Languages There is no programming in this course, but you will appreciate the value of the course Week 5 Simplytyped lambda calculus context-sensitive syntax, http://cs-people.bu.edu/santiago/CS520-Fall01/

CS520: Programming Languages Fall 2001 Instructor: Santiago Pericas-Geertsen Meeting Place: MCS B31 Meeting Time: MWF 10:00-11:00 am Office Hours: WF 11:00-12:00 pm Prerequisites: (CS305 or CS332) and CS320 Overview: The course covers the mathematical and formal foundations of modern programming languages. Topics include: syntax and semantics of three paradigm languages, one functional (PCF), one object oriented and one foundational (the lambda calculus); the operational, axiomatic and denotational semantics of programming languages; program verification; topics in the typed and untyped lambda-calculus; topics in type theory (type inference, subtyping, polymorphism). Material presented in class, or assigned for independent reading, will be mostly from the textbook and occasionally from handouts. There is no programming in this course, but you will appreciate the value of the course in proportion to your programming experience and familiarity with different programming paradigms. If you have never programmed before, the material will come across as dry and formal, with little or no practical motivation for it. And I venture to say that the better programmer you are, the easier the course will be for you. Grading: Homework assignments, about 40% of final grade

A lambda calculus for quantum computation Scheme simulator This page provides a simulator for a functional language based on Scheme for expressing and simulating quantum algorithms. Example code implementing some simple quantum algorithms is provided. For the theory, see my papers A lambda calculus for quantum computation Quantum computation, categorical semantics and linear logic which develop a linear lambda calculus for expressing quantum algorithms. The code below implements the examples in the first one of these two papers. Instructions The code should work in any Scheme adhering to the R5RS standard. It has been tested in PLT's DrScheme and Petite Chez Scheme, both of which are freely available. Instructions are as follows for DrScheme: Install DrScheme . When asked during installation, choose the "Pretty Big" language level. Save the two files quantum.scm quantum-definitions.scm wherever you like, but they should be in the same directory. Launch DrScheme, load the file quantum.scm, and click on the "execute" button to run the algorithms. Examples: Simple gate combinations First let's apply a few Hadamard gates in sequence to a single qubit. The QEVAL performs the sum over histories:
