On logicality and natural logic [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Language Semantics, 2021
AbstractIn this paper we focus on the logicality of language, i.e. the idea that the language system contains a deductive device to exclude analytic constructions. Puzzling evidence for the logicality of language comes from acceptable contradictions and tautologies. The standard response in the literature involves assuming that the language system only

Logical Step-Indexed Logical Relations [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2009
Appel and McAllester's "step-indexed" logical relations have proven to be a simple and effective technique for reasoning about programs in languages with semantically interesting types, such as general recursive types and general reference types. However, proofs using step-indexed models typically involve tedious, error-prone, and proof-obscuring step ...

Sistemas de cálculo como formas de Logicismo

open access: yesCrítica, 2019
