A Complete Calculus of Monotone and Antitone Higher-Order Functions

5 pages•Published: July 28, 2014

Abstract

This paper adds monotonicity and antitonicity information to the typed lambda calculus, thereby providing a foundation for the Monotonicity Calculus first developed by van Benthem and others. We establish properties of the type system, propose a syntax, semantics, and proof calculus, and prove completeness for the calculus with respect to hierarchies of monotone and antitone functions over base preorders.

Keyphrases: monotone and antitone functions, monotonicity calculus, typed lambda calculus
