Complete Axioms for Categorical Fixed-Point Operators
We give an axiomatic treatment of fixed-point operators in categories. A notion of iteration operator is defined, embodying the equational properties of iteration theories. We p...

A Model for Impredicative Type Systems, Universes, Intersection Types and Subtyping
We introduce a new model based on coherence spaces for interpreting large impredicative type systems such as the Extended Calculus of Constructions (ECC). Moreover, we show that t...

The Role of Decidability in First Order Separations over Classes of Finite Structures
We establish that the decidability of the first order theory of a class of finite structures ¢ is a simple and useful condition for guaranteeing that the expressive power of FO...

A Theory of Bisimulation for a Fragment of Concurrent ML with Local Names
Concurrent ML is an extension of Standard ML with π-calculus-like primitives for multi-threaded programming. CML has a reduction semantics, but to date there has been no labelled...

Virtual Symmetry Reduction
We provide a general method for ameliorating state explosion via symmetry reduction in certain asymmetric systems, such as systems with many similar, but not identical, processes....

Game Semantics and Subtyping
While Game Semantics has been remarkably successful at g, often in a fully abstract manner, a wide range of features of programming languages, there has to date been no attempt at...

Models for Name-Passing Processes: Interleaving and Causal
We study syntax-free models for name-passing processes. For interleaving semantics, we identify the indexing structure required of an early labelled transition system to support t...

Automatic Structures
We study definability and complexity issues for automatic and ω-automatic structures. These are, in general, infinite structures but they can be finitely presented by a collec...
