Abstract

cc:03F05 cc:03B25 cc:18D15
Using an inductive definition of normal terms of the theory of Cartesian Closed Categories with a given graph of distinguished morphisms, we give a reduction free proof of the decidability of this theory. This inductive definition enables us to show via functional completeness that extensions of such a theory by new constants (“indeterminates”) are conservative.
