Abstract

We study the computational content of negation in classical logic. This is done in the framework of the ∗X calculus, which has been designed to stand in correspondence with classical logic with explicit structural rules. The terms for left-negation and right-negation are introduced, and their computational role is defined by reduction rules. We show that the good underlying properties of the original system are preserved in the system extended with negations.
