  • Abstract
    We present a new category of games, 𝒢, and build from it a cartesian closed category I and its extensional quotient ε. ε represents an improvement over existing categories of games in that it has sums as well as products, function spaces and recursive types. A model of the language FPC, a sequential functional language with just this type structure, in ε is described and shown to be fully abstract
