We present two extensions of the LF Constructive Type Theory featuring monadic locks. A lock is a monadic type construct that captures the effect of an external call to an oracle. Such calls are the basic tool for gluing together diverse Type Theories and proof development environments. The oracle can be invoked either to check that a constraint holds or to provide a suitable witness. The systems are presented in the canonical style developed by the CMU School. The first system, CLLFP, is the canonical version of the system LLFP, presented earlier by the authors. The second system, CLLFP?, features the possibility of invoking the oracle to obtain a witness satisfying a given constraint. We discuss encodings of Fitch-Prawitz Set theory, call-by-value lambda-calculi, and systems of Light Linear Logic. Finally, we show how to use Fitch-Prawitz Set Theory to define a type system that types precisely the strongly normalizing terms.

The connection between normalization by evaluation, logical predicates and semantic gluing constructions is a matter of folklore, worked out in varying degrees within the literature. In this note, we present an elementary version of the gluing techni que which corresponds closely with both semantic normalization proofs and the syntactic normalization by evaluation.
LF is a dependent type theory in which many other formal systems can be conveniently embedded. However, correct use of LF relies on nontrivial metatheoretic developments such as proofs of correctness of decision procedures for LFs judgments. Although detailed informal proofs of these properties have been published, they have not been formally verified in a theorem prover. We have formalized these properties within Isabelle/HOL using the Nominal Datatype Package, closely following a recent article by Harper and Pfenning. In the process, we identified and resolved a gap in one of the proofs and a small number of minor lacunae in others. We also formally derive a version of the type checking algorithm from which Isabelle/HOL can generate executable code. Besides its intrinsic interest, our formalization provides a foundation for studying the adequacy of LF encodings, the correctness of Twelf-style metatheoretic reasoning, and the metatheory of extensions to LF.
We introduce an approach that aims to combine the usage of satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solvers with the Combinatory Logic Synthesizer (CL)S framework. (CL)S is a tool for the automatic composition of software components from a user-specified repository. The framework yields a tree grammar that contains all composed terms that comply with a target type. Type specifications for (CL)S are based on combinatory logic with intersection types. Our approach translates the tree grammar into SMT functions, which allows the consideration of additional domain-specific constraints. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach in several experiments.
In order to understand the relative expressive power of larger concurrent programming languages, we analyze translations of small process calculi which model the communication and synchronization of concurrent processes. The source language SYNCSIMPL E is a minimalistic model for message passing concurrency while the target language LOCKSIMPLE is a minimalistic model for shared memory concurrency. The former is a calculus with synchronous communication of processes, while the latter has synchronizing mutable locations - called locks - that behave similarly to binary semaphores. The criteria for correctness of translations is that they preserve and reflect may-termination and must-termination of the processes. We show that there is no correct compositional translation from SYNCSIMPLE to LOCKSIMPLE that uses one or two locks, independent from the initialisation of the locks. We also show that there is a correct translation that uses three locks. Also variants of the locks are taken into account with different blocking behavior.
We present a hybrid dynamical type theory equipped with useful primitives for organizing and proving safety of navigational control algorithms. This type theory combines the framework of Fu--Kishida--Selinger for constructing linear dependent type th eories from state-parameter fibrations with previous work on categories of hybrid systems under sequential composition. We also define a conjectural embedding of a fragment of linear-time temporal logic within our type theory, with the goal of obtaining interoperability with existing state-of-the-art tools for automatic controller synthesis from formal task specifications. As a case study, we use the type theory to organize and prove safety properties for an obstacle-avoiding navigation algorithm of Arslan--Koditschek as implemented by Vasilopoulos. Finally, we speculate on extensions of the type theory to deal with conjugacies between model and physical spaces, as well as hierarchical template-anchor relationships.
