Abstract: PCF, as considered in this paper, is a lazy typed lambda calculus with functions, pairing, fixed-point operators and arbitrary algebraic data types. The natural equational axioms for PCF include j-equivalence and the so-called "surjective pairing" axiom for pairs. However, the reduction system pcf j;sp defined by directing each equational axiom is not confluent, for virtually any choice of algebraic data types. Moreover, neither j-reduction nor surjective pairing seems to have a counterpart in... (Update)
