Solution to the range problem for combinatory logic. (English summary) Fund. Inform.111(2011),no. 2,203–222.

In lambda-calculus, the theoryH is obtained from β-conversion by identifying all closed unsolvable terms (or, equivalently, terms without head normal form). The range problem for 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).

The paper tackles a modification of the above problem in the combinatory logic setting. A natural notion of head-normal form is defined for combinatory logic, albeit it lacks the equivalence between “terms without head normal form” and “terms being unsolvable”. LetHCLdenote the theory obtained from the weak-reduction by identifying all terms without head normal forms (of combinatory logic). The theoryHCLis weaker than H. The main result states that for every term M of combinatory logic, the set {M P |P closed} is either a singleton or infinite moduloHCL-equality.

Although this result adds evidence to the conjecture that the range problem forH has a positive answer, a negative answer to it was announced in September 2010 by

Polonsky. Luca Paolini
