A Formulae-as-Types Interpretation of Subtractive Logic

Tristan Crolard · Journal of Logic and Computation · 2004

We present a formulae-as-types interpretation of Subtractive Logic (i.e. bi-intuitionistic logic). This presentation is two-fold: we first define a very natural restriction of the λμ-calculus which is closed under reduction and whose type system is a constructive restriction of the Classical Natural Deduction. Then we extend this deduction system conservatively to Subtractive Logic. From a computational standpoint, the resulting calculus provides a type system for first-class coroutines (a restricted form of first-class continuations).
