| − | The category $\mathbf{Fin}$ of finiteness spaces and finitary relations was introduced |
+ | The category <math>\mathbf{Fin}</math> of finiteness spaces and finitary relations was introduced by Ehrhard, refining the [[relational semantics|purely relational model of linear logic]]. A finiteness space is a set equipped with a finiteness structure, i.e. a particular set of subsets which are said to be finitary; and the model is such that the usual relational denotation of a proof in linear logic is always a finitary subset of its conclusion. By the usual co-Kleisli construction, this also provides a model of the simply typed lambda-calculus: the cartesian closed category <math>\mathbf{Fin}_\oc</math>. |

The category 
of finiteness spaces and finitary relations was introduced by Ehrhard, refining the purely relational model of linear logic. A finiteness space is a set equipped with a finiteness structure, i.e. a particular set of subsets which are said to be finitary; and the model is such that the usual relational denotation of a proof in linear logic is always a finitary subset of its conclusion. By the usual co-Kleisli construction, this also provides a model of the simply typed lambda-calculus: the cartesian closed category 
.
The main property of finiteness spaces is that the intersection of two finitary subsets of dual types is always finite. This feature allows to reformulate Girard's quantitative semantics in a standard algebraic setting, where morphisms interpreting typed λ-terms are analytic functions between the topological vector spaces generated by vectors with finitary supports. This provided the semantical foundations of Ehrhard-Regnier's differential λ-calculus and motivated the general study of a differential extension of linear logic.
It is worth noticing that finiteness spaces can accomodate typed λ-calculi only: for instance, the relational semantics of fixpoint combinators is never finitary. The whole point of the finiteness construction is actually to reject infinite computations. Indeed, from a logical point of view, computation is cut elimination: the finiteness structure ensures the intermediate sets involved in the relational interpretation of a cut are all finite. In that sense, the finitary semantics is intrinsically typed.

[edit] Finiteness spaces
The construction of finiteness spaces follows a well known pattern. It is given by the following notion of orthogonality: 
iff 
is finite. Then one unrolls familiar definitions, as we do in the following paragraphs.
Let A be a set. Denote by 
the powerset of A and by 
the set of all finite subsets of A. Let 
any set of subsets of A. We define the pre-dual of 
in A as 
. In general we will omit the subscript in the pre-dual notation and just write 
. For all , we have the following immediate properties: 
; 
; if 
, 
. By the last two, we get 
. A finiteness structure on A is then a set of subsets of A such that 
.
A finiteness space is a dependant pair 
where 
is the underlying set (the web of 
) and 
is a finiteness structure on . We then write 
for the dual finiteness space: 
and 
. The elements of are called the finitary subsets of .
[edit] Example.
For all set A, 
is a finiteness space and 
. In particular, each finite set A is the web of exactly one finiteness space: 
. We introduce the following two: 
and 
. We also introduce the finiteness space of natural numbers 
by: 
and 
iff a is finite. We write 
.
Notice that is a finiteness structure iff it is of the form 
. It follows that any finiteness structure is downwards closed for inclusion, and closed under finite unions and arbitrary intersections. Notice however that is not closed under directed unions in general: for all 
, write 
; then 
as soon as 
, but 
.
[edit] Multiplicatives
For all finiteness spaces and 
, we define 
by 
and 
. It can be shown that 
, where 
and 
are the obvious projections.
Let 
be a relation from A to B, we write 
. For all 
, we set 
. If moreover 
, we define 
. Then, setting 
, 
is characterized as follows:
The elements of 
are called finitary relations from to . By the previous characterization, the identity relation 
is finitary, and the composition of two finitary relations is also finitary. One can thus define the category of finiteness spaces and finitary relations: the objects of are all finiteness spaces, and 
. Equipped with the tensor product 
, is symmetric monoidal, with unit 
; it is monoidal closed by the definition of 
; it is * -autonomous by the obvious isomorphism between and 
.
[edit] Example.
Setting 
and 
, we have 
and 
.
[edit] Additives
We now introduce the cartesian structure of . We define 
by 
and 
where 
denotes the disjoint union of sets: 
. We have 
.[1]
The category is both cartesian and co-cartesian, with 
being the product and co-product, and 
the initial and terminal object. Projections are given by:
and if 
and 
, pairing is given by:
The unique morphism from to is the empty relation. The co-cartesian structure is obtained symmetrically.
[edit] Example.
Write 
. Then 
is an isomorphism.
[edit] Exponentials
If A is a set, we denote by 
the set of all finite multisets of
elements of A, and if , we write 
.
If 
, we denote its support by
. For all finiteness space , we define
by: 
and 
.
It can be shown that 
.
Then, for all 
, we set
![\oc f =\left\{\left(\left[\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_n\right],\left[\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_n\right]\right);\ \forall i,\ (\alpha_i,\beta_i)\in f\right\} \in \mathbf{Fin}(\oc {\mathcal A}, \oc {\mathcal B}),](/mediawiki/images/math/b/2/f/b2f34984c0cb2d7403a8ae3d3e7febe3.png)

- ↑ The fact that the additive connectors are identified, i.e. that we obtain a biproduct, is to be related with the enrichment of over the monoid structure of set union: see Marcello P. Fiore. Differential Structure in Models of Multiplicative Biadditive Intuitionistic Linear Logic. TLCA 2007. This identification can also be shown to be a isomorphism of LL with sums of proofs.
