Boolean Algebras for Lambda Calculus
In this paper we show that the Stone representation theorem for Boolean algebras can be generalized to combinatory algebras. In every combinatory algebra there is a Boolean algebr...

Exploring the Design Space of Higher-Order Casts
This paper explores the surprisingly rich design space for the simply typed lambda calculus with casts and a dynamic type. Such a calculus is the target intermediate language of th...

Constructive Data Refinement in Typed Lambda Calculus
A new treatment of data refinement in typed lambda calculus is proposed, phrased in terms of pre-logical relations [HS99] rather than logical relations, and incorporating a constru...
