dc.description.abstract
Lax logical relations are a categorical generalisation of logical relations; though they preserve product types, they need not preserve exponential types. But, like logical relations, they are preserved by the meanings of all lambda-calculus terms.We show that lax logical relations coincide with the correspondences of Schoett, the algebraic relations of Mitchell and the pre-logical relations of Honsell and Sannella on Henkin models, but also generalise naturally to models in cartesian closed categories and to richer languages.
