Proof Nets for Multiplicative Cyclic Linear Logic and Lambek Calculus
Résumé
This paper presents a simple and intuitive syntax for proof nets of the multiplicative cyclic fragment (McyLL) of linear logic (LL). The main technical achievement of this work is to propose a correctness criterion that allows for sequentialization (recovering a proof from a proof net) for all McyLL proof nets, including those containing cut links. This is achieved by adapting the idea of contractibility (originally introduced by Danos to give a quadratic time procedure for proof nets correctness) to cyclic linear logic. This paper also gives a characterization of McyLL proof nets for Lambek Calculus and thus a geometrical (i.e., non inductive) way to parse phrases or sentences by means of Lambek proof nets.
