Abstract: We investigate the expressive power of the typed -calculus when expressing computations over finite structures, i.e., databases. We show that the simply typed -calculus can express various database query languages such as the relational algebra, fixpoint logic, and the complex object algebra. In our embeddings, inputs and outputs are -terms encoding databases, and a program expressing a query is a -term which types when applied to an input and reduces to an output. Our embeddings have the... (Update)

...uniform typed inputs convention, where each input has one fixed simple type. This convention is the literature standard. It is used in [21] to code relational algebra, on finite structure inputs, in TLC = of order 3. If inputs are Church numerals given more complex types...

...application, lambda abstraction, and let abstraction; all typed using fixed order ( 5) functionalities. In this framework, proposed in [21] for arbitrary order functionalities, queries and databases are both typed lambda terms, evaluation is by reduction, and the main...
