Classical Logic = Fibred MLL
Abstract
Description
This paper represents classical propositional proofs as *combinatorial proofs*, which are more abstract than proof nets: superposition (contraction/weakening) is modelled mathematically, as a lax form of fibration, rather than syntactically (as in proof nets, which involve contraction and weakening nodes). A combinatorial proof is a `fibred' multiplicative linear proof net, hence the slogan in the title. Cut elimination retains its richness from sequent calculus: its non-determinism does not collapse to become confluent.
