Linear logic with storage preserving positives
Has anyone studied a version of linear logic in which the storage modality $!$ preserves the positive connectives and quantifiers $\otimes,\oplus,\exists$? That is, such that we have $!(A\otimes B) = …

Is Girard's LU just an embedding of classical and intuitionistic logic into linear logic?
This question is about Girard's system LU, presented in his paper On the unity of logic. Girard starts by giving a "modal" sequent calculus with two zones of both hypotheses and consequents, $\Gamma; …

A well-founded relation on lists
Let $A$ be a set equipped with a well-founded relation $<$, let $LA$ be the set of finite lists of elements of $A$, and define a relation $\prec$ on $LA$ such that $\ell \prec m$ if $\ell$ is obtained …

When does collection imply replacement?
In ordinary membership-based set theory, the axiom schema of replacement states that if $\phi$ is a first-order formula, and $A$ is a set such that for any $x\in A$ there exists a unique $y$ such that …

Axiom of class collection
One version of the Axiom of Collection says that any surjection $A\to B$ from a class $A$ to a set $B$ is factored through by some surjection $C\to B$ where $C$ is a set.
Note that assuming $B$ is a …

Is set-induction relatively consistent?
One way to state the axiom of foundation is that the $\in$ relation on any transitive set is well-founded in the following sense:
A relation $(X,\prec)$ is well-founded if for any subset $S\subseteq …

Can a typing judgment admit essentially different derivations?
In any sort of type theory, there are a bunch of rules for constructing derivations of typing judgments such as $x:A,\; y:B(x) \;\vdash\; z:C(x,y)$. (I intend to include also judgments of the form $B …

Recursively dependent types?
Is there such a thing as "recursively dependent types"? Specifically, I would like a dependent type theory containing a type $A(x)$ which depends on a variable $x: A(z)$, where $z$ is a particular co …

Can ZFC → NBG be iterated?
von Neumann-Bernays-Gödel set theory (NBG) is a conservative extension of ZFC which contains "classes" (such as the class of all sets) as basic objects. "Conservative" means that anything provable in …

Approximate intermediate value theorem in pure constructive mathematics
The ordinary intermediate value theorem (IVT) is not provable in constructive mathematics. To show this, one can construct a Brouwerian "weak counterexample" and also promote it to a precise counterm …

Mathematics without the principle of unique choice
The principle of unique choice (PUC), also called the principle of function comprehension, says that if $R$ is a relation between two sets $A,B$, and for every $x\in A$ there exists a unique $y\in B$ …

In the paper "Complete topoi representing models of set theory" by Blass and Scedrov, they consider a general notion of Boolean-valued model of set theory, and one of the conditions they impose is tha …

One form of Vopenka's principle (a large cardinal axiom) states that no locally presentable category contains a full subcategory which is large (= a proper class) and discrete (= contains no nonidenti …

constructive Serre classes
A Serre class (of abelian groups) is a class of abelian groups closed under subgroups, quotients, and extensions. For instance, finitely generated groups and finite groups are both Serre classes.
