The Conservation Theorem revisited
This paper describes a method of proving strong normalization based on an extension of the conservation theorem. We introduce a structural notion of reduction that we call βS, and we prove that any λ-term that has a βI βS-normal form is strongly β-normalizable. We show how to use this result to prove the strong normalization of different typed λ-calculi.
