Atomic polymorphism and the existence property

We present a purely proof-theoretic proof of the existence property for the full intuitionistic first-order predicate calculus, via natural deduction, in which commuting conversions are not needed. Such proof illustrates the potential of an atomic polymorphic system with only three generators of for...

Resumo:We present a purely proof-theoretic proof of the existence property for the full intuitionistic first-order predicate calculus, via natural deduction, in which commuting conversions are not needed. Such proof illustrates the potential of an atomic polymorphic system with only three generators of formulas – conditional and first and second-order universal quantifiers – as a tool for proof-theoretical studies.
