Research interests
I am interested in operational and denotational semantics for functional programming languages.
More precisely I am working on three directions
and their interactions :
- Models of pure lambda-calculus: used for studying the lattice of lambda-theories,
in particular its interactions with computability theory.
- Quantitative semantics: building parametrised concrete semantics either to extract
quantitative information or to model resource sensitive calculi. I am particuliarly
interested in probabilistic calculi as well as semantics sensible to complexity and
sequentiality.
- Probabilistic (higher order) Rewriting: Understanding probabilistic reduction and termination.
More exactly, I am interested in separating classical and
probabilistic properties of probabilistic programs so that linear/non-probabilistic
invariant that can be towed by lifting standard proof techniques.
By transitivity I am also interested in many related domains: logic, algebra, proof
theory, computability theory, complexity theory,.. But also further computer sci-
ence domains: language design, circuit design, cryptography protocols (differential
privacy)...
