Publisher Summary The λ-calculus represents a class of (partial) functions (λ-definable functions) on the integers that turns out to be the class of (partial) recursive functions. The …
Both pre-orders and metric spaces have been used at various times as a foundation for the solution of recursive domain equations in the area of denotational semantics. In both cases …

While categorical logic is of very recent origin, its evolution is inseparable from that of category theory itself, so rendering it effectively impossible to do the subject full justice within …
This Element is an exposition of second-and higher-order logic and type theory. It begins with a presentation of the syntax and semantics of classical second-order logic, pointing up …
We describe the formal system of higher—order intuitionistic logic with power types and (impredicative) comprehension which provides the basis for our" set theory"; this is adapted …
