var wgNotice = ""; var wgNoticeLocal = ""; var wgNoticeLang = "en"; var wgNoticeProject = "wikipedia"; Linear logic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search In mathematical logic linear logic is a type of substructural logic that denies the structural rules of weakening and contraction . The interpretation is of hypotheses as resources : every hypothesis must be consumed exactly once in a proof . This differs from usual logics such as classical or intuitionistic logic where the governing judgement is of truth , which may be freely used as many times as necessary. To give an example, from propositions A and A B one may conclude A B as follows: Modus ponens (or implication elimination ) on the assumptions A and A B to conclude B Conjunction of the assumption A and (1) to conclude A B This is often symbolically represented as a sequent A A B A B . Both lines in the above proof "consume" the fact that A is true; this " freeness " of truth is usually what is desired in formal mathematics. However, truth is often too abstract or unwieldy when applied to statements about the world. For example, suppose one has a quart of cream from which one can make a pound of butter . If the cream is used to make butter, then it cannot be concluded that one has both cream and butter. Yet, the logical schema outlined above leads one to conclude that

Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Linear Logic First published Wed 6 Sep, 2006 Linear logic is a refinement of classical and intuitionistic logic. Instead of emphasizing truth , as in classical logic, or proof , as in intuitionistic logic, linear logic emphasizes the role of formulas as resources . To achieve this focus, linear logic does not allow the usual structural rules of contraction and weakening to apply to all formulas but only those formulas marked with certain modals. Linear logic contains a fully involutive negation while maintaining a strong constructive interpretation. Linear logic also provides new insights into the nature of proofs in both classical and intuitionistic logic. Given its focus on resources, linear logic has found many applications in Computer Science. 1. Legend 2. Introduction 2.1 A bit of history 2.2 Linear logic and computer science ... Related Entries 1.

Linear Logic Philip Wadler Down with the bureaucracy of syntax! Pattern matching for classical linear logic Philip Wadler. Manuscript, April 2004. This paper introduces a new way of attaching proof terms to proof trees for classical linear logic, which bears a close resemblance to the way that pattern matching is used in programming languages. It equates the same proofs that are equated by proof nets, in the formulation of proof nets introduced by Dominic Hughes and Rob van Glabbeek; and goes beyond that formulation in handling exponentials and units. It provides a symmetric treatment of all the connectives, and may provide programmers with improved insight into connectives such as "par" and "why not" that are difficult to treat in programming languages based on an intuitionistic formulation of linear logic. Available in: pdf Operational Interpretations of Linear Logic David N. Turner and Philip Wadler. Special issue on linear logic, Theoretical Computer Science , to appear. Two different operational interpretations of intuitionistic linear logic have been proposed in the literature. The simplest interpretation recomputes non-linear values every time they are required. It has good memory-management properties, but is often dismissed as being too inefficient. Alternatively, one can memoize the results of evaluating non-linear values. This avoids any recomputation, but has weaker memory-management properties. Using a novel combination of type-theoretic and operational techniques we give a concise formal comparison of the two interpretations. Moreover, we show that there is a subset of linear logic where the two operational interpretations coincide. In this subset, which is sufficiently expressive to encode call-by-value lambda-calculus, we can have the best of both worlds: a simple and efficient implementation, and good memory-management properties.

8. Game Semantics Or Linear Logic? The page is about an alternative to Linear logic called computability logic. It is semanticsbased unlike the syntax-based Linear logic. http://www.csc.villanova.edu/~japaridz/CL/gsoll.html

Game semantics linear logic?* * This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 0208816. Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation. So far games in logic have been mostly used to find models and semantical justifications for syntactically introduced popular systems such as intuitionistic logic or linear logic. The recently initiated line called computability logic changes the approach and views games as foundational entities in their own right. This approach is in the taste of those who believe that syntax (axiomatizations or other deductive constructions) should serve a meaningful and motivated semantics rather than vice versa. The (new) concept of games that computability logic is based on appears to be an adequate formal counterpart of our broadest intuition of interactive computational tasks - tasks performed by a machine for a user/environment. What is a task for a machine is a resource for the environment and vice versa, so computability-logic games, at the same time, formalize our intuition of

These tools include a duality-based categorical semantics, an intrinsic graphical representation of proofs, the introduction of well-behaved non-commutative logical connectives, and the concepts of polarity and focalisation. These various aspects are illustrated here through introductory tutorials as well as more specialised contributions, with a particular emphasis on applications to computer science: denotational semantics, lambda-calculus, logic programming and concurrency theory. The volume is rounded-off by two invited contributions on new topics rooted in recent developments of linear logic. The book derives from a summer school that was the climax of the EU Training and Mobility of Researchers project ‘Linear Logic in Computer Science’. It is an excellent introduction to some of the most active research topics in the area.

A "Linear Logic" Quicksort Henry G. Baker Nimble Computer Corporation, 16231 Meadow Ridge Way, Encino, CA 91436 (818) 986-1436 (818) 986-1360 (FAX) This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. III-9261682. The linear style of programming inspired by linear logic has been proposed to reduce garbage collection and synchronization costs in serial and parallel systems. We programmed Quicksort for both lists and arrays in a "linear" fragment of Lisp to estimate the performance impact of linearity on a serial machine. Even though Quicksort is well-tuned for current non-linear architectures, we find that linearity extracts no real penalty. Our "linear" list Quicksort is as fast as any non-linear list Quicksort, and our "linear" vector Quicksort is only 3.5% slower than a non-linear vector Quicksort. The linear style is moderately pleasant, and the redundancy of linearity checking can aid in finding bugs. INTRODUCTION Linear logic [Girard87] [Lafont88] [Abramsky93] has been proposed as the basis for a "linear" computer language which preserves the cleanliness of functional programming, yet allows efficient "update-in-place" array operations, no tracing garbage collection and no synchronization. However, some early measurements on linear languages have been disappointing. Wakeling [Wakeling91] complains about the inefficiencies of his version of "linear" ML, especially on list and array variants of Quicksort sorting algorithm, as well as about the stilted linear programming style.

I could see deleting this page, except perhaps for the value of the comments and discussion that people have added after my original text. Jack Waugh 2003-08-11] I have seen the term " linear logic " used in a way that has nothing to do with linear equations (described at Linear Programming ). In the literature I saw, Linear Logic means a discipline where an object reference can only be used once. In fact, you must use it exactly once. To destroy a reference requires an explicit mention. To "split" a reference also does. So for example, where in, say Smalltalk (an imperative OO language), you could write: foo: anArgument ^ anArgument + anArgument a linear-logic language would (assuming a similar syntax) require something like (This assumes an extention to Smalltalk syntax where you could have a call return multiple results, which you could then store in variables.)

20. FLoC '02 - LL Linear logic was invented by Girard in 1986, and first appeared as a finer analysis of his denotational semantics of system F. It provides a decomposition http://floc02.diku.dk/LL/

LL 2002 Linear Logic Copenhagen, Denmark, July 25-26, 2002 Affiliated with LICS 2002 Linear logic, by the decomposition of intuitionistic connectives it provides, but also by the new concepts it carries (geometrization of computations, management of resources at the logical level) opens a new dimension, already intensely exploited, in applications of logic to computer science, and at the same time is the locus of a mathematical theory within which mathematics is comfortably done. It is both a theory and a tool. New possibilities show up at two levels, which we might call the language level and the operational level. Let us say that linear logic acts as a kind of a looking-glass through which phenomena of the field are better understood. Though only fifteen years old, linear logic has spread in the computer science and logic communities, so that it can now be considered as a mature topic. The success of various international initiatives, such as the linear logic workshops at Cornell in 1993, in Tokyo in 1996, in Marseille in 1998; the linear logic bibliography web page at Carnegie Mellon University in the U.S. and also the various European projects where linear logic played or currently plays an important role, such as the Esprit projects CLiCS and CONFER, the HCM Network "Typed Lambda-Calculus" and the current LINEAR TMR network are concrete signs of vitality of the subject. In 2002 four years will have passed since the most recent international workshop on linear logic held in 1998 in Marseille, and the time will be ripe for a successful meeting.

In my work as an identity designer I've rediscovered the obvious: It has to land in the gut before it has any chance of making it to the head. If you want your logo to be remembered and recognized, you've got to provide a pay-off to the viewer. The more immediate story you can tell, the more likely you are to create a relationship with the viewer. And when I say story I don't mean fable. I mean the more appropriate visual content you use to represent your client's message, the much higher the likelihood you have of creating a direct line from invitation to connection. This is information value, as opposed to information junk, which is in abundance today. Humans love myth and symbol, as we should. There's a lot of knowledge in this synaptic bit, distilled through the experiences of millions of predecessors. A symbol is certainly a collapsed piece of information, but symbols also expand to fit any human in any culture in any time by linking to universal principles. These cues in turn inform choice: Is it good? What is in it for me? Do I trust? Taking the wrong turn into the jaws of a famished predator is as relevant a concern today in the concrete jungle as it was in the Savannah millennia ago. A composite that immediately tells the story without excessive processing is invaluable. It enhances our edge of appropriate response by giving us access to response-ability.

Lectures on Linear Logic A.S. Troelstra Linear logic is an example of a "resource-sensitive" logic, keeping track of the number of times data of given types are used. Formulas in linear logic represent either the data themselves or data types, whereas in ordinary logic a formula is a proposition. If ordinary logic is a logic of truth, linear logic is a logic of actions. Linear logic and its implications are explored in depth in this volume. Particular attention has been given to the various formalisms for linear logic, embeddings of classical and intuitionistic logic into linear logic, the connection with certain types of categories, the "formulas-as-types" paradigm for linear logic and associated computational interpretations, and Girard's proof nets for classical linear logic as an analogue of natural deduction. It is also shown that linear logic is undecidable. A final section, contributed by D. Roorda, presents a proof of strong normalization for cut elimination in linear logic. Linear logic is of interest to logicians and computer scientists, and shows links with many other topics, such as coherence theorems in category theory, the theory of Petri nets, and abstract computing machines without garbage collection.

But I decided against doing so, because when I temporary placed the ScanGauge II on the opened door using it like a small shelf - I found myself playing with the buttons and changing gauge views while I was driving.

This Week's Finds in Mathematical Physics (Week 40) John Baez Anyway, it's now quite clear to me that I just hadn't been reading the right stuff. I think Rota has said that the really interesting work in logic now goes under the name of "computer science', but for whatever reason, I didn't dig into the Journal of Philosophical Logic, other logic journals, or proceedings of conferences on category theory, computer science and the like and find the stuff that would have excited me. It goes to show that one really needs to keep digging! Anyway, I just went to a conference called the Lambda Calculus Jumelage up in Ottawa, thanks to a kind invitation by Prakash Panangaden and Phil Scott, who thought my ideas on category theory and physics might interest (or at least amuse) the folks who attend this annual bash. It became clear to me while up there that logic is alive and well! Of course, I don't actually understand most of what these people are up to, so take what I say with a large grain of salt. My goal here is more to draw attention to some interesting-sounding ideas than to explain them. One interesting subject, which I think I'm finally beginning to get an inkling of, is "linear logic". This was introduced in the following paper (which I haven't gotten around to looking at):

People Events Research Home First Order Linear Logic in Symmetric Monoidal Closed Categories Simon Ambler Abstract: There has recently been considerable interest in the development of `logical frameworks' which can represent many of the logics arising in computer science in a uniform way. Within the Edinburgh LF project, this concept is split into two components; the first being a general proof theoretic encoding of logics, and the second a uniform treatment of their model theory. This thesis forms a case study for the work on model theory. The models of many first and higher order logics can be represented as fibred or indexed categories with certain extra structure, and this has been suggested as a general paradigm. The aim of the thesis is to test the strength and flexibility of this paradigm by studying the specific case of Girard's linear logic . It should be noted that the exact form of this logic in the first order case is not entirely certain, and the system treated here is significantly different to that considered by Girard. To secure a good class of models, we develop a carefully restricted form of first order intuitionistic linear logic, called

Linear Logic, Linguistic Resource Sensitivity and Resumption ESSLLI 2006 :: Malaga, Spain :: 31.07.2006 - 04.08.2006 Ash Asudeh Institute of Cognitive Science School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies Carleton University ... Slides Course Description: This course investigates linguistic applications of resource logics, particularly linear logic. The resource accounting of linear logic forms the basis for a linguistic hypothesis/research program, Resource Sensitivity (RS). The linguistic utility of logical resource accounting is shown to have a tight connection to choice of logical connectives. A number of theoretical proposals in linguistics are shown to be reducible to resource-sensitive semantic composition. Resource Sensitivity is challenged by pronominal resumption, which seems to constitute a kind of resource surplus. A theory of resumption is presented that maintains RS and sheds new light on resumption as a problem of semantic composition, rather than a principally syntactic problem, as in other treatments. The theory also forms the basis for a processing model (production and parsing) of non-grammaticized resumptive pronouns. The theory is further applied to copy raising, a phenomenon whose syntax and semantics is both underinvestigated and challenging and whose intuitive similarity to resumptive pronouns has previously not been captured. Prerequisites : Students should have some background in logic or linguistic syntax and semantics

var skin = 'monobook';var stylepath = '/w/skins'; Linear logic From The Twelf Project Jump to: navigation search The fact that the LF type theory uses only unrestricted assumptions has led some to assume that it cannot encode substructural logics such as linear logic. In fact, LF admits a very elegant encoding of linear logic, given below. The key idea is a judgement used to enforce the linear use of each linear assumption.

The linearity judgement ensures that a variable is used linearly (roughly speaking, exactly once) within its scope. (For an example of its use, see the rule of/lam for linear lambda abstraction below, which ensures that its argument is used linearly within its body.)

This page is no longer updated, please refer to this page Alessio Guglielmi's Research Deep Inference and the Calculus of Structures / Commutative/Non-commutative Linear Logic Deep Inference and the Calculus of Structures Commutative/Non-commutative Linear Logic We conservatively extend mixed multiplicative and multiplicative exponential linear logic with a self-dual non-commutative operator. The systems so obtained cannot be presented in the sequent calculus, but they enjoy the usual properties of locality, decomposition and cut elimination available in the calculus of structures. We can present Yetter's cyclic linear logic in the calculus of structures and prove cut elimination; interestingly, cyclicity is naturally subsumed by deep inference. New, purely proof-theoretical, techniques are developed for reducing the non-determinism in the calculus of structures. Non-commutativity and MELL in the Calculus of Structures Alessio Guglielmi and We introduce the calculus of structures: it is more general than the sequent calculus and it allows for cut elimination and the subformula property. We show a simple extension of multiplicative linear logic, by a self-dual non-commutative operator inspired by CCS, that seems not to be expressible in the sequent calculus. Then we show that multiplicative exponential linear logic benefits from its presentation in the calculus of structures, especially because we can replace the ordinary, global promotion rule by a local version. These formal systems, for which we prove cut elimination, outline a range of techniques and properties that were not previously available. Contrarily to what happens in the sequent calculus, the cut elimination proof is modular.

44. Efficient Linear Logic Meaning Assembly The glue approach to semantic composition in LexicalFunctional Grammar uses Linear logic to assemble meanings from syntactic analyses Dalrymple et al, http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~vgupta/publications/efficientassembly-colin

Efficient Linear Logic Meaning Assembly Vineet Gupta, John Lamping Introduction The "glue" approach to semantic composition in Lexical-Functional Grammar uses linear logic to assemble meanings from syntactic analyses [Dalrymple et al, 1993]. It has been computationally feasible in practice [Dalrymple et al, 1997b]. Yet deduction in linear logic is known to be intractable. Even the propositional tensor fragment is NP complete. In this paper, we investigate what has made the glue approach computationally feasible and show how to exploit that to efficiently deduce underspecified representations. In the next section, we identify a restricted pattern of use of linear logic in the glue analyses we are aware of, including those in [Crouch and van Genabith 1997, Dalrymple et al 1996,Dalrymple et al 1995] . And we show why that fragment is computationally feasible. In other words, while the glue approach could be used to express computationally intractable analyses, actual analyses have adhered to a pattern of use of linear logic that is tractable. The rest of the paper shows how this pattern of use can be exploited to efficiently capture all possible deductions. We present a conservative extension of linear logic that allows a reformulation of the semantic contributions to better exploit this pattern, almost turning them into Horn clauses. We present a deduction algorithm for this formulation that yields a compact description of the possible deductions. And finally, we show how that description of deductions can be turned into a compact underspecified description of the possible meanings.

You are listening to a piece of music, and nothing links one moment with the next. Sounds seem to emerge without purpose from some unmapped realm, neither connecting to what came before nor anticipating anything after. The same thing can happen while reading. Passages accumulate like tedious entries in an exercise book. Chaos, disorder, clumsiness, disarray: these must be the marks of poor construction or, perhaps, of deliberate provocation.

Perhaps the order behind the sounds is simply not being heard; perhaps the logic of the argument is not being understood. Paying attention to anything alien can be like listening to a foreign language. There may be logic latent in the sounds, but it is not evident to untrained ears.

50. Linear Logic As A Good Logical Foundation For Computer Science. A brief analysis of the computational aspects of Linear logic by Max Kanovich. http://www.univ-paris12.fr/lacl/lundi/kanovitch.html

Linear Logic as a good logical foundation for computer A specification language for a computational system is supposed to be capable of handling both resource-sensitive and time-dependent properties of computational processes. Covering both of the two aspects is necessitated by the fact that computational processes (in particular, concurrent processes) consume their resources and develop in time, so that the state of the resources consumed by the processes and the order of their actions are time-dependent. In consequence, such formal systems should be based on the concept of dynamical state and provide updating, inheritance,and parallelism. Traditional logics like intuitionistic logic (whose proofs are represented with the means of the lambda calculus), have not been very successful at the task of modelling states and changes of states; researchers have had to invent formal systems, like Milner's CCS and pi-calculus, for which it is hard to establish a connection with logic in the traditional sense. Linear logic has been introduced by Girard as resource-sensitive refinement of classical logic. Research in linear logic has been the thrust behind the development of a closer relationship between logic and computer science, as evid enced for example by natural characterizations of major complexity classes in terms of natural fragments of linear logic (Lincoln, Mitchell, Scedrov, Shankar, Kanovich, Lafont). Direct connections have been established between linear logic and various models of concurrency like Petri nets (Asperti, Brown, Meseguer, Gunter), games (Blass, Abramsky, Lamarche), stochastic Petri nets, Dijkstra's guarded commands (Kanovich); all this shows linear logic to be a good logical foundation for the theory of computational processes that may consume resources.
