  • Knowledge Representation in Bicategories of Relations
    Knowledge Representation in Bicategories of Relations Evan Patterson Department of Statistics, Stanford University Abstract We introduce the relational ontology log, or relational olog, a knowledge representation system based on the category of sets and relations. It is inspired by Spivak and Kent’s olog, a recent categorical framework for knowledge representation. Relational ologs interpolate between ologs and description logic, the dominant formalism for knowledge representation today. In this paper, we investigate relational ologs both for their own sake and to gain insight into the relationship between the algebraic and logical approaches to knowledge representation. On a practical level, we show by example that relational ologs have a friendly and intuitive—yet fully precise—graphical syntax, derived from the string diagrams of monoidal categories. We explain several other useful features of relational ologs not possessed by most description logics, such as a type system and a rich, flexible notion of instance data. In a more theoretical vein, we draw on categorical logic to show how relational ologs can be translated to and from logical theories in a fragment of first-order logic. Although we make extensive use of categorical language, this paper is designed to be self-contained and has considerable expository content. The only prerequisites are knowledge of first-order logic and the rudiments of category theory. 1. Introduction arXiv:1706.00526v2 [cs.AI] 1 Nov 2017 The representation of human knowledge in computable form is among the oldest and most fundamental problems of artificial intelligence. Several recent trends are stimulating continued research in the field of knowledge representation (KR).

Key to the \magic" of quantum computation. Experimentally verified, highly non-classical feature of physical reality. And pervasive in logic, computation, and beyond. In a nutshell: data which is locally consistent, but globally inconsistent. We find a direct connection between the structure of quantum contextuality and classic semantic paradoxes such as \Liar cycles". Conversely, contextuality offers a novel perspective on these paradoxes. Cohomology. Sheaf theory provides the natural mathematical setting for our analysis, since it is directly concerned with the passage from local to global. In this setting, it is furthermore natural to use sheaf cohomology to characterise contextuality. Cohomology is one of the major tools of modern mathematics, which has until now largely been conspicuous by its absence, in logic, theoretical computer science, and quantum information. Our results show that cohomological obstructions to the extension of local sections to global ones witness a large class of contextuality arguments.

  • Physics from Computer Science
    Physics from Computer Science Samson Abramsky and Bob Coecke Oxford University Computing Laboratory, Wolfson Building, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3QD, UK. samson abramsky · [email protected] Where sciences interact. We are, respectively, a computer scientist interested in the logic and seman- tics of computation, and a physicist interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics. Currently we are pursuing what we consider to be a very fruitful collaboration as members of the same Computer Science department. How has this come about? It flows naturally from the fact that we are working in a field of computer science where physical theory starts to play a key role, that is, natural computation, with, of course, quantum computation as a special case. At this workshop there will be many advocates of this program present, and we are honoured to be part of that community. But there is more. Our joint research is both research on semantics for distributed computing with non-von Neumann architectures, and on the axiomatic foundations of physical theories. This dual character of our work comes without any compromise, and proves to be very fruitful. Computational architectures as toy models for physics. Computer science has something more to offer to the other sciences than the computer. Indeed, on the topic of mathematical and logical un- derstanding of fundamental transdisciplinary scientific concepts such as interaction, concurrency and causality, synchrony and asynchrony, compositional modelling and reasoning, open systems, qualitative versus quantitative reasoning, operational methodologies, continuous versus discrete, hybrid systems etc. computer science is far ahead of many other sciences, due to the challenges arising from the amaz- ing rapidity of the technology change and development it is constantly being confronted with.

  • A Fully Abstract Game Semantics for Countable Nondeterminism
    A Fully Abstract Game Semantics for Countable Nondeterminism W. John Gowers1 Computer Science Department, University of Bath Claverton Down Road, Bath. BA2 7QY, United Kingdom [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4513-9618 James D. Laird Department of Computer Science, University of Bath Claverton Down Road, Bath. BA2 7QY, United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract The concept of fairness for a concurrent program means that the program must be able to exhibit an unbounded amount of nondeterminism without diverging. Game semantics models of nondeterminism show that this is hard to implement; for example, Harmer and McCusker’s model only admits infinite nondeterminism if there is also the possibility of divergence. We solve a long standing problem by giving a fully abstract game semantics for a simple stateful language with a countably infinite nondeterminism primitive. We see that doing so requires us to keep track of infinitary information about strategies, as well as their finite behaviours. The unbounded nondeterminism gives rise to further problems, which can be formalized as a lack of continuity in the language. In order to prove adequacy for our model (which usually requires continuity), we develop a new technique in which we simulate the nondeterminism using a deterministic stateful construction, and then use combinatorial techniques to transfer the result to the nondeterministic language. Lastly, we prove full abstraction for the model; because of the lack of continuity, we cannot deduce this from definability of compact elements in the usual way, and we have to use a stronger universality result instead.

  • Type Theory & Functional Programming
    Type Theory & Functional Programming Simon Thompson Computing Laboratory, University of Kent March 1999 c Simon Thompson, 1999 Not to be reproduced i ii To my parents Preface Constructive Type theory has been a topic of research interest to computer scientists, mathematicians, logicians and philosophers for a number of years. For computer scientists it provides a framework which brings together logic and programming languages in a most elegant and fertile way: program development and verification can proceed within a single system. Viewed in a different way, type theory is a functional programming language with some novel features, such as the totality of all its functions, its expressive type system allowing functions whose result type depends upon the value of its input, and sophisticated modules and abstract types whose interfaces can contain logical assertions as well as signature information. A third point of view emphasizes that programs (or functions) can be extracted from proofs in the logic. Up until now most of the material on type theory has only appeared in proceedings of conferences and in research papers, so it seems appropriate to try to set down the current state of development in a form accessible to interested final-year undergraduates, graduate students, research workers and teachers in computer science and related fields – hence this book. The book can be thought of as giving both a first and a second course in type theory. We begin with introductory material on logic and functional programming, and follow this by presenting the system of type theory itself, together with many examples. As well as this we go further, looking at the system from a mathematical perspective, thus elucidating a number of its important properties.

  • Quantum Information-Flow, Concretely, Abstractly
    Proc. QPL 2004, pp. 57–73 Quantum information-flow, concretely, abstractly Bob Coecke∗ Oxford University Computing Laboratory Abstract These ‘lecture notes’ are based on joint work with Samson Abramsky. I will survey and informally discuss the results of [3, 4, 5, 12, 13] in a pedestrian not too technical way. These include: • ‘The logic of entanglement’, that is, the identification and abstract axiomatiza- tion of the ‘quantum information-flow’ which enables protocols such as quan- tum teleportation.1 To this means we defined strongly compact closed categories which abstractly capture the behavioral properties of quantum entanglement. • ‘Postulates for an abstract quantum formalism’ in which classical information- flow (e.g. token exchange) is part of the formalism. As an example, we provided a purely formal description of quantum teleportation and proved correctness in abstract generality.2 In this formalism types reflect kinds, contra the essentially typeless von Neumann formalism [25]. Hence even concretely this formalism manifestly improves on the usual one. • ‘A high-level approach to quantum informatics’.3 Indeed, the above discussed work can be conceived as aiming to solve: ??? high-level language ' . von Neumann quantum formalism low-level language I also provide a brief discussion on how classical and quantum uncertainty can be mixed in the above formalism (cf. density matrices).4 1 What? When? Where? Why? First of all, for us ‘quantum’ stands for the concepts (both operational and formal) which had to be added to classical physics in order to understand observed phenomena such as ∗Howard Barnum, Rick Blute, Sam Braunstein, Vincent Danos, Ross Duncan, Peter Hines, Martin Hyland, Prakash Panangaden, Peter Selinger and Vlatko Vedral provided feedback.

  • Relating Structure and Power: a Junction Between Categorical Semantics, Model Theory and Descriptive Complexity
    RELATING STRUCTURE AND POWER: A JUNCTION BETWEEN CATEGORICAL SEMANTICS, MODEL THEORY AND DESCRIPTIVE COMPLEXITY SAMSON ABRAMSKY There is a remarkable divide in the field of logic in Computer Science, between two distinct strands: one focussing on semantics and compo- sitionality (\Structure"), the other on expressiveness and complexity (\Power"). It is remarkable because these two fundamental aspects are studied using almost disjoint technical languages and methods, by al- most disjoint research communities. We believe that bridging this divide is a major issue in Computer Science, and may hold the key to funda- mental advances in the field. In this talk, we describe a novel approach to relating categorical se- mantics, which exemplifies the first strand, to finite model theory, which exemplifies the second. This was introduced in [1], and substantially ex- tended in [2, 3]. Combinatorial games such as Ehrenfeucht{Fra¨ıss´egames, pebble ga- mes, and bisimulation games are widely used in finite model theory, constraint satisfaction, modal logic and concurrency theory We show how each of these types of games can be described in terms of an in- dexed family of comonads on the category of relational structures and homomorphisms. The index k is a resource parameter which bounds the degree of access to the underlying structure. The coKleisli categories for these comonads can be used to give syntax-free characterizations of a wide range of important logical equivalences. Moreover, the coalgebras for these indexed comonads can be used to characterize key combinato- rial parameters: tree-depth for the Ehrenfeucht-Fra¨ıss´ecomonad, tree- width for the pebbling comonad, and synchronization-tree depth for the modal unfolding comonad.
