We characterize those intersection-type theories which yield complete intersection-type assignment systems for �-calculi, with respect to the three canonical set-theoretical semantics for intersectiontypes: the inference semantics, the simple semantics and the F-semantics. These semantics arise by taking as interpretation of types subsets of applicative structures, as interpretation of the intersection constructor, T , set-theoretic inclusion, and by taking the interpretation of the arrow constructor, →, ` la Scott, with respect to either any possible functionality set, or the largest one, or the least one. These results strengthen and generalize significantly all earlier results in the literature, to our knowledge, in at least three respects. First of all the inference semantics had not been considered before. Secondly, the characterizations are all given just in terms of simple closure conditions on the preorder relation , ≤, on the types, rather than on the typing judgments themselves. The task of checking the condition is made therefore considerably more tractable. Lastly, we do not restrict attention just to �-models, but to arbitrary applicative structures which admit an interpretation function. Thus we allow also for the treatment of models of restricted �-calculi. Nevertheless the characterizations we give can be tailored just to the case of �-models. |
