Commutative monads for probabilistic programming languages

X Jia, B Lindenhovius, M Mislove… - 2021 36th Annual …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A long-standing open problem in the semantics of programming languages supporting
probabilistic choice is to find a commutative monad for probability on the category DCPO. In …

Enriched presheaf model of quantum fpc

T Tsukada, K Asada - Proceedings of the ACM on Programming …, 2024 - dl.acm.org
Selinger gave a superoperator model of a first-order quantum programming language and
proved that it is fully definable and hence fully abstract. This paper proposes an extension of …

Semantics for variational quantum programming

X Jia, A Kornell, B Lindenhovius, M Mislove… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - dl.acm.org
We consider a programming language that can manipulate both classical and quantum
information. Our language is type-safe and designed for variational quantum programming …

Quantum CPOs

A Kornell, B Lindenhovius, M Mislove - arXiv preprint arXiv:2109.02196, 2021 - arxiv.org
We introduce the monoidal closed category qCPO of quantum cpos, whose objects are"
quantized" analogs of omega-complete partial orders (cpos). The category qCPO is …

Quantum Suplattices

G Jenča, B Lindenhovius - arXiv preprint arXiv:2308.16495, 2023 - arxiv.org
Building on the theory of quantum posets, we introduce a non-commutative version of
suplattices, ie, complete lattices whose morphisms are supremum-preserving maps, which …

The Semantics of Effects: Centrality, Quantum Control and Reversible Recursion

L Lemonnier - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.07216, 2024 - arxiv.org
This thesis revolves around an area of computer science called" semantics". We work with
operational semantics, equational theories, and denotational semantics. The first …

Categories of quantum cpos

A Kornell, B Lindenhovius, M Mislove - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.01816, 2024 - arxiv.org
This paper unites two research lines. The first involves finding categorical models of
quantum programming languages and their type systems. The second line concerns the …

Reflecting algebraically compact functors

V Zamdzhiev - arXiv preprint arXiv:1906.09649, 2019 - arxiv.org
A compact T-algebra is an initial T-algebra whose inverse is a final T-coalgebra. Functors
with this property are said to be algebraically compact. This is a very strong property used in …

Computational Adequacy for Substructural Lambda Calculi

V Zamdzhiev - arXiv preprint arXiv:2005.05433, 2020 - arxiv.org
Substructural type systems, such as affine (and linear) type systems, are type systems which
impose restrictions on copying (and discarding) of variables, and they have found many …

Semantics column

M Mislove - ACM SIGLOG News, 2022 - dl.acm.org
After an extended hiatus, the Semantics column is returning with this issue of the Newsletter.
The subject of this quarter's column is Call-By-Push-Value, written by Paul B. Levy. CBPV is …
