Classical Combinatory Logic

Karim Nour

Abstract


Combinatory logic shows that bound variables can be eliminated without loss of expressiveness. It has applications both in the foundations of mathematics and in the implementation of functional programming languages. The original combinatory calculus corresponds to minimal implicative logic written in a system ``à la Hilbert''. We present in this paper a combinatory logic which corresponds to propositional classical logic. This system is equivalent to the system 2;SymProp of Barbanera and Berardi.
