Subject: typed lambda calculus:cartesian closed :sorted pi 	calculus:?
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 10:40:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1MhPtx-0005Dh-Nb@mailserv.mta.ca> (raw)

As far as I can tell, the major difference between lambda calculus and
pi calculus is that the rewrite rules in pi calculus aren't confluent,
so it doesn't make a lot of sense to consider rewrite-equivalence
classes of terms.  What kind of category (or bicategory) does sorted
pi calculus give?
