Episode Synopsis

In this episode I talk about how to represent lambda terms as graphs with duplicator nodes for splitting edges corresponding to bound variables.  I also start discussing the beginning of Lampings' abstract algorithm for optimal beta-reduction, in particular how we need to push duplicators inside lambda abstractions to initiate a lazy duplication.
