Intuitionistic logic and modal logic each admit meaningful projections of classical theories. While intuitionistic logic can interpret classical logic by a host of translations, thus yielding computational interpretations, modal logic can be employed to understand notions of provability and truth. However, the enrichment of intuitionistic logic by modalities is far less canonical than its classical…

Confluence in the sequent calculus
In this blog post, we give an insight into the confluence of the sequent calculus, a property mainly considered since the discovery of the so-called Curry-Howard correspondence [1]. Confluence is often thought to be part of the well-understood folklore. For people already aware of the links between intuitionism and computation, it may feel natural and…
