gabbay:0303-Lyon
Murdoch J. Gabbay, FM and the pi-calculus, I investigate what happens if we consider an FM-like category of objects with a finite name-for-name renaming action (possibly non-injective maps between names) rather than a finite name-for-name permutation action as is the case for FM sets. I obtain a category similar to Schan, but which supports a natural interpretation of weak HOAS. Talk given on March 20 at the ENS Lyon, France. Thanks to Daniel Hirschkoff.

Murdoch J. Gabbay, FM for Higher-Order Abstract Syntax, I investigate what happens if we consider an FM-like category of objects with a finite name-for-name renaming action (possibly non-injective maps between names) rather than a finite name-for-name permutation action as is the case for FM sets. I obtain a category similar to Schan, but which supports a natural interpretation of weak HOAS. Talk given on March 13 in Manchester University, thanks to Peter Aczel.

gabbay:feb-sem-lunch
Murdoch J. Gabbay, Restriction, binding, and three presentations of the pi-calculus, I've been using FreshML to program a pet interest of mine; transition systems and bisimulation checkers for the pi-calculus (see [gabbay:thempc]). I'll show excerpts from the programs I've written and talk about what writing them has taught me about another interest of mine; finding a semantics for restriction as distinct from binding. The sourcecode discussed is the pi-ltsb series of programs above, see [pi-ltsb] above.
