This should be equivalent to the standard one when given infinite resources, but this fact cannot be so directly established, because each semantics produces values in a different domain. The values obtained by the standard semantics belong to the usual lifted function space D = [D → D]⊥, while those produced by the resourced semantics belong to [C → E] where E satisfies the equation E = [[C → E] → [C → E]]⊥ and C (the domain of resources) is a countable chain domain defined as the least solution of the domain equation C = C⊥. We propose a way to relate functional values in the standard lifted function space to functional values in the corresponding resourced function space. We first construct the initial solution for the domain equation E = [[C → E] → [C → E]]⊥ following Abramsky’s construction of the initial solution of D = [D → D]⊥. Then we define a “similarity” relation between values in the constructed domain and values in the standard lifted function space. This relation is inspired by Abramsky’s applicative bisimulation. Finally we prove the desired equivalence between the standard denotational semantics and the resourced semantics for the lazy λ-calculus.engbook parthttp://delivery.acm.org/10.1145/1990000/1982469/p1301-sanchez-gil.pdf?ip=147.96.14.16&acc=ACTIVE%20SERVICE&CFID=107335849&CFTOKEN=79747743&__acm__=1338979611_1ee6df275a66cf5d9879b8b9b0b37e58open access510.64Domain theoryDenotational semanticsλ-calculus.Lógica simbólica y matemática (Matemáticas)1102.14 Lógica Simbólica
