The Linear Logic Primer
This is an ever evolving support, elaborated together with one of the very experts of Linear Logic, Vincent Danos, for an introductory course on Linear Logic that has been taught on several occasions in different continents over the past years.
The original Pisa Version (1992)
This is a short rugged presentation of the material, but already has a fan club, so we still keep it here (dvi).
The current major revision
This is the support being used since 1996/1997 in a course in the Dea de Sémantique, Preuves et Programmation.
