Incorporating extensional equality into a dependent intensional type system such as the Calculus of Constructions provides with stronger type-checking capabilities and makes the proof development closer to intuition. Since strong forms of extensionality lead to undecidable type-checking, a good trade-off is to extend intensional equality with a decidable first-order theory T, as done in CoqMT, which uses matching modulo T for the weak and strong elimination rules, we call these rules T-elimination. So far, type-checking in CoqMT is known to be decidable in presence of a cumulative hierarchy of universes and weak T-elimination. Further, it has been shown by Wang with a formal proof in Coq that consistency is preserved in presence of weak and strong elimination rules, which actually implies consistency in presence of weak and strong T-elimination rules since T is already present in the conversion rule of the calculus.We justify here CoqMT’s type-checking algorithm by showing strong normalization as well as the Church-Rosser property of β-reductions augmented with CoqMT’s weak and strong T -elimination rules. This therefore concludes successfully the meta-theoretical study of CoqMT.

Leibniz Equality

We embed a first order theory with equality in the Pure Type System λMON2 that is a subsystem of the well-known type system λPRED2. The embedding is based on the Curry-Howard isomorphism, i.e. → and ∀ coincide with → and Π. Formulas of the form [Formula: see text] are treated as Leibniz equalities. That is, [Formula: see text] is identified with the second order formula ∀ P. P(t1)→ P(t2), which contains only →'s and ∀'s and can hence be embedded straightforwardly. We give a syntactic proof — based on enriching typed λ-calculus with extra reduction steps — for the equivalence between derivability in the logic and inhabitance in λMNO2. Familiarity with Pure Type Systems is assumed.

AbstractLet T be a complete countable first order theory and λ an uncountable cardinal. Theorem 1. If T is not superstable, T has 2λ resplendent models of power λ. Theorem 2. If T is strictly superstable, then T has at least min(2λ, ℶ2) resplendent models of power λ. Theorem 3. If T is not superstable or is small and strictly superstable, then every resplendent homogeneous model of T is saturated. Theorem 4 (with Knight). For each μ ∈ ω ∪ {ω, 2ω} there is a recursive theory in a finite language which has μ resplendent models of power κ for every infinite κ.
