The main purpose of clocks in guarded type theories (originating in Atkey & McBride ICFP 2013) is so that we can define coinductive constructions from guarded recursive definitions. Semantically ...

Commutativity of Clock Quantification and Disjunction/Existential Quantification in Guarded Type Theories

In Atkey & McBride ICFP 2013, they extend a simple type theory with guarded recursion indexed by clock variables $\triangleright^k$ and a clock quantification $\forall k. A$ that conveniently ...
