Multi-modalities in Linear Logic

We formalize in Coq a linear nested system (LNS) [1] for focused [2] first-order linear logic [3] with subexponentials [4] where each subexpential may have different substructural and modal behaviors. In particular, each subexponential index may be unbounded (allowing weakening and contraction) or linear and, in addition, it may exhibit different modal behaviors including the axioms 4, D and T. The axiom K is assumed for all of them. We call this logic MMLL (multi-modal linear logic), that extends linear logic and also subexponential linear logic [5]. We prove a cut-elimination theorem for this system.

Following [6], we encode the inference rules of different logics as MMLL theories and formalize the necessary conditions for those logics to be analytic. We then obtain cut-elimination theorems for LNS presentations of classical and (multi-conclusion) intuitionistic logics as well as for multi-modal classical and substructural logics.

Getting Started

The project was tested in Coq 8.15. No extra library is needed for compilation.

Building

Typing "make" should suffice to compile the project:

coq_makefile -f _CoqProject -o Makefile
make

The project documentation can be generated by

make html

Structure of the project / proofs

We briefly describe the content (theorems and definitions) of the .v files. The documentation of the library offers more detailed explanations.

We use the Hybrid library [7] to support reasoning about object logics (OLs) expressed using higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS). Hybrid is implemented as a two-level system and then, we have:

  • MMLL as specification logic (SL); and
  • Different OLs encoded as MMLL theories.

For this reason, the project is divided in two main subdirectories, namely, SL and OL plus an additional one (Misc) for some miscellaneous definitions and results. There is an additional TEX/PDF with the needed proof transformations to prove cut-admissibility of the focused system for MMLL.

Misc

In Hybrid.v there is an adaptation of the Hybrid library for our purposes. There are also additional results about lists and permutations needed in the development. The results in Permutation.v are based on the ones in MyPermutations.v.

SL

This directory contains the formalization of the specification logic MMLL and the cut-elimination theorem.

SL/Syntax

This file defines the syntax of MMLL and its notation. We also define several notions needed for the focused system (e.g., negative and positive formulas, polarity of atoms, etc). The class Signature can be instantiated so to specify the indices for the subexponentials and the axioms assumed for each of them.

SL/Sequent

Definition of sequents and linear nested sequents.

SL/StructuralRules

We prove that, multiset-equivalent contexts (i.e., lists up to permutation) prove the same theorems (exchange rule). We also prove that the classical context admits the usual weakening and contraction rules (preserving the height of the derivation) for unbounded subexponentials.

SL/FLLTactics

Here we define several tactics useful for dealing with MMLL sequents.

SL/InvNegativePhase

This file proves some invertibility lemmas for the negative (unfocus) phase.

SL/InvPositivePhase

This file proves some invertibility lemmas showing that positive rules can be switched.

SL/CutElimination

The proof of the cut-elimination theorem for the focused system.

Object Logics

The directory OL contains examples showing how to use object logics as MMLL theories. For the moment, there are specifications for the linear system for classical, (multi-conclusion) intuitionistic logic and the modal logic S4.
