lambda-calculus         
<mathematics> (Normally written with a Greek letter lambda). A branch of mathematical logic developed by Alonzo Church in the late 1930s and early 1940s, dealing with the application of functions to their arguments. The pure lambda-calculus contains no constants - neither numbers nor mathematical functions such as plus - and is untyped. It consists only of lambda abstractions (functions), variables and applications of one function to another. All entities must therefore be represented as functions. For example, the natural number N can be represented as the function which applies its first argument to its second N times (Church integer N). Church invented lambda-calculus in order to set up a foundational project restricting mathematics to quantities with "effective procedures". Unfortunately, the resulting system admits Russell's paradox in a particularly nasty way; Church couldn't see any way to get rid of it, and gave the project up. Most functional programming languages are equivalent to lambda-calculus extended with constants and types. Lisp uses a variant of lambda notation for defining functions but only its purely functional subset is really equivalent to lambda-calculus. See reduction. (1995-04-13)
Lambda calculus         
Lambda calculus (also written as λ-calculus) is a formal system in mathematical logic for expressing computation based on function abstraction and application using variable binding and substitution. It is a universal model of computation that can be used to simulate any Turing machine.
beta conversion         
<theory> A term from lambda-calculus for beta reduction or beta abstraction. (1999-01-15)

Lambda calculus

Lambda calculus (also written as λ-calculus) is a formal system in mathematical logic for expressing computation based on function abstraction and application using variable binding and substitution. It is a universal model of computation that can be used to simulate any Turing machine. It was introduced by the mathematician Alonzo Church in the 1930s as part of his research into the foundations of mathematics.

Lambda calculus consists of constructing lambda terms and performing reduction operations on them. In the simplest form of lambda calculus, terms are built using only the following rules:

  • x {\displaystyle x} – variable, a character or string representing a parameter or mathematical/logical value.
  • ( λ x . M ) {\textstyle (\lambda x.M)} – abstraction, function definition ( M {\textstyle M} is a lambda term). The variable x {\textstyle x} becomes bound in the expression.
  • ( M   N ) {\displaystyle (M\ N)} – application, applying a function M {\textstyle M} to an argument N {\textstyle N} . Both M {\textstyle M} and N {\textstyle N} are lambda terms.

The reduction operations include:

  • ( λ x . M [ x ] ) ( λ y . M [ y ] ) {\textstyle (\lambda x.M[x])\rightarrow (\lambda y.M[y])} – α-conversion, renaming the bound variables in the expression. Used to avoid name collisions.
  • ( ( λ x . M )   E ) ( M [ x := E ] ) {\textstyle ((\lambda x.M)\ E)\rightarrow (M[x:=E])} – β-reduction, replacing the bound variables with the argument expression in the body of the abstraction.

If De Bruijn indexing is used, then α-conversion is no longer required as there will be no name collisions. If repeated application of the reduction steps eventually terminates, then by the Church–Rosser theorem it will produce a β-normal form.

Variable names are not needed if using a universal lambda function, such as Iota and Jot, which can create any function behavior by calling it on itself in various combinations.
