The Complexity of Inhabitation with Explicit Intersection

  • Chapter
Logic and Program Semantics

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNPSE,volume 7230))

Abstract

It is shown that the inhabitation problem for intersection types without the intersection introduction rule is Expspace-complete and that the further restriction without subtyping is Pspace-complete.
