چکیده
H is the theory extending β-conversion by identifying all closed unsolvables. Hω is the closure of this theory under the ω-rule (and β-conversion). A long-standing conjecture of H. Barendregt states that the provable equations of Hω form a Π11-complete set. Here we prove that conjecture.

متن کاملOn Henk Barendregt’s Favorite Open Problem
H is the λ-theory extending β-conversion by identifying all closed unsolvables. A long-standing open problem of H. Barendregt states that the range property holds in H. Here we discuss what we know about the problem. We also make some remarks on the λ-theory Hω (the closure of H under the ω-rule and β-conversion).
متن کاملSolution to the Range Problem for Combinatory Logic
The λ-theory H is obtained from β-conversion by identifying all closed unsolvable terms (or, equivalently, terms without head normal form). The range problem for the theory H asks whether a closed term has always (up to equality in H) either an infinite range or a singleton range (that is, it is a constant function). Here we give a partial solution to this problem, giving a positive answer for ...
متن کاملThe Omega Rule is $\mathbf{\Pi_{1}^{1}}$-Complete in the $\lambda\beta$-Calculus
In a functional calculus, the so called ω-rule states that if two terms P and Q applied to any closed term N return the same value (i.e. PN = QN), then they are equal (i.e. P = Q holds). As it is well known, in the λβ-calculus the ω-rule does not hold, even when the η-rule (weak extensionality) is added to the calculus. A long-standing problem of H. Barendregt (1975) concerns the determination ...
