In order to avoid the problem with the commutation of # abstraction and substitution he uses explicit substitutions. This means that he extends the language of terms by the following term formation rule: If s, t 1 , ....

....a detailed plan of our work at this point and refer the reader to the introductions of the individual chapters and sections as well as the table of contents. Finally, let us mention that throughout these investigations we have made free use of the papers Jager and Strahm [52, 50] and Strahm [68, 66]. 5 Acknowledgments I am deeply grateful to Prof. Gerhard Jager for introducing me to mathematical logic and proof theory and for his steady encouragement during the past years. He has not only been an excellent guide, but also a friend. I am indebted to Prof. Solomon Feferman for many ....
....for total models of BON, thus generalizing the Scott Curry undecidability theorem of the untyped calculus. Section 5 contains a very short discussion on finitary inductive data types as an alternative to the type of the natural numbers in BON. In Section 6, finally, we give a review of our paper [68] on partial applicative theories and explicit substitutions, thereby shedding some more light on crucial differences between partial and total applicative theories. For more comprehensive introductions to applicative theories the reader is referred to Beeson [3] Cantini [9] Feferman [18, 20] ....

....recursion theoretic models are no longer permitted. Furthermore, theories with a total application operation have some important advantages compared to their partial analogues, e.g. as far as the role of substitutions is concerned. Questions concerning substitutions are discussed in Strahm [15]. Research supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation. The natural and interesting models for total applicative theories are term models with suitable forms of term reduction and Church Rosser properties. As the recursion theoretic models in a partial setting, term models are very ....
