Theory Seminar
Finite Models of Typed Lambda Calculi - Decidability and Computability

Ralph Loader, Oxford
Friday 14 Feb 1997, 2pm.

I will discuss the recent progress and open problems about (un)decidability in finite models of typed lambda calculi, and the application of these to problems such as higher order matching. Rather than going into technical details, I'll try and show how different questions relate to each other, and why some of them are interesting.
