Summary on Grant Application Form
The work on Interaction Categories aims to develop a unified theory of functional and concurrent computation, as a basis for languages combining their paradigms, and for type ssytems for concurrency. The work on Geometric Logic aims to provide a basis for specification languages and methodologies by construing geometric logic as a logic of observable properties. The work on computational measure theory and topology applies ideas developed in semantics of computation to a mainstream mathematics (measure theory, integration, topology) yielding novel methods and algorithms.
