<span style="color:black">Abstract:<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>In this talk, I will show the (categorical) semantics of Fiore and collaborators’ “Second-Order Abstract Syntax with Binders” and of McBride and collaborators’ “Universe of Syntaxes
with Bindings”. I will also compare them under multiple criteria (literature, usage, meta theory and implementation/formalisation), with special focus on how both approaches handle metavariables by using System F as our main example. (Please beware it’s a
work in progress, and many details haven’t been worked out yet)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
