Abstract

Following Aehlig, we consider a hierarchy F^p= { F^p_n }_{n in Nat} of
parameter-free subsystems of System F, where each F^p_n
corresponds to ID_n, the theory of n-times iterated inductive
definitions (thus our F^p_n corresponds to the n+1th system of
Aehlig). We here present two proofs of strong normalization for
F^p_n, which are directly formalizable with inductive definitions.
The first one, based on the Joachimski-Matthes method, can be fully
formalized in ID_n+1. This provides a tight upper bound on the
complexity of the normalization theorem for System F^p_n. The
second one, based on the Godel-Tait method, can be locally
formalized in ID_n. This provides a direct proof to the known
result that the representable functions in F^p_n are provably
total in ID_n. In both cases, Buchholz' Omega-rule plays a
central role.
