A Lambda Term Representation Based on Ordered Linear Logic
We introduce a nameless representation of lambda terms based on ordered logic. Information about number and places of variables bound by a lambda is available without examining the whole term, thus making it possible to drop unneeded substitutions early to avoid memory leaks.
We describe an implementation of this and other representations as well as suggested evaluation algotithms. These implementations were tested in Haskell by using them for typechecking large dependently typed terms of the logical framework (LF). The different needs of time and space are documented and compared.
