+Strict evaluation of predicates is the following:
+
+$$\frac{\theta \vdash p_1 \Downarrow b_1 \qquad \theta \vdash p_2 \Downarrowb_2}{\theta \vdash p_1 \land p_2 \Downarrow b_1 \mathbin{\texttt{\&}} b_2}$$
+
+Lazy evaluation of predicates will instead have multiple rules that take
+into account when we know the result of the computation:
+
+$$\frac{\theta \vdash p_1 \Downarrow \perp}{\theta \vdash p_1 \land p_2 \Downarrow \perp}$$
+
+$$\frac{\theta \vdash p_2 \Downarrow \perp}{\theta \vdash p_1 \land p_2 \Downarrow \perp}$$
+
+$$\frac{\theta \vdash p_1 \Downarrow \top \qquad \theta \vdash p_2 \Downarrow \top}{\theta \vdash p_1 \land p_2 \Downarrow \top}$$
