\section{Categorical Notions of Partiality}

\begin{frame}[t, fragile]{Capturing Partiality Categorically}{Moggi's categorical semantics~\cite{moggi}}
Goal: interpret an effectul programming language in a category $\mathcal{C}$

\begin{itemize}
  \item<2-> Take a Monad $T$ on $\mathcal{C}$, then values are denoted by objects $A$ and programs by $TA$
  \item<3-> Programs form a category $\mathcal{C}_T$ with $\mathcal{C}_T(X,Y) := \mathcal{C}(X, TY)$
\end{itemize}

\onslide<4->
What properties should a partiality monad $T$ have?

\begin{enumerate}
  \item<5-> Commutativity (also entails strength), i.e. the following programs should yield equal results:
    \begin{multicols}{2}
      \begin{minted}{haskell}
        do x <- p
           y <- q
           return (x, y)
        \end{minted}
        
        \begin{minted}{haskell}
        do y <- q
           x <- p
           return (x, y)
      \end{minted}
    \end{multicols}
    where p and q are programs.  
  \item<6-> Morphisms in $\mathcal{C}_T$ should be partial maps (How?)
\end{enumerate}

\end{frame}

\newcommand{\tdom}{\text{dom}}

\begin{frame}[t, fragile]{Capturing Partiality Categorically}{Restriction Categories~\cite{restriction}}
\begin{definition}<1->
  A restriction structure on $\mathcal{C}$ is a mapping $\tdom : \mathcal{C}(X,Y) \rightarrow \mathcal{C}(X,X)$ with the following properties:
  \begin{alignat}{1}
    f \circ (\tdom f) &= f\\
    (\tdom f) \circ (\tdom g) &= (\tdom g) \circ (\tdom f)\\
    \tdom(g \circ (\tdom f)) &= (\tdom g) \circ (\tdom f)\\
    (\tdom h) \circ f &= f \circ \tdom (h \circ f)
  \end{alignat}
  for any $X, Y, Z \in \vert\mathcal{C}\vert, f : X \rightarrow KY, g : X \rightarrow KZ, h: Y \rightarrow KZ$.
\end{definition}

Intuitively $\tdom f$ captures the domain of definiteness of $f$.

\begin{block}{Remark}<2->
  Every category has a trivial restriction structure $\tdom f = id$, we call categories with a non-trivial restriction structure \textit{restriction categories}.
\end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[t, fragile]{Capturing Partiality Categorically}{Equational Lifting Monads~\cite{eqlm}}
  The following criterion is sufficient for guaranteeing that the kleisli category is a restriction category:
  \begin{definition}
    A commutative monad $T$ is called an \textit{equational lifting monad} if the following diagram commutes:

    The Kleisli category of an equational lifting monad is a restriction category.
