Paper: Correctness of Multiplicative Proof Nets is Linear (at LICS 1999)
Authors: Stefano GuerriniAbstract
We reformulate Danos contractibility criterion in terms of a sort of unification. As for term unification, a direct implementation of the unification criterion leads to a quasi-linear algorithm. Linearity is obtained after observing that the disjoint-set union-find at the core of the unification criterion is a special case of union-find with a real linear time solution.
