Phase semantics and decidability of elementary affine logic

AbstractLight, elementary and soft linear logics are formal systems derived from Linear Logic, enjoying remarkable normalization properties. In this paper, we prove decidability of Elementary Affine Logic, EAL. The result is obtained by semantical means, first defining a class of phase models for EAL and then proving soundness and (strong) completeness, following Okada's technique. Phase models for Light Affine Logic and Soft Linear Logic are also defined and shown complete
