Strong normalizability as a finiteness structure via the Taylor expansion of \(\lambda\)-terms




Abstract: In the folklore of linear logic, a common intuition is that the structure of finiteness spaces, introduced by Ehrhard, semantically reflects the strong normalization property of cut-elimination. We make this intuition formal in the context of the non-deterministic {lambda}-calculus by introducing a finiteness structure on resource terms, which is such that a {lambda}-term is strongly normalizing iff the support of its Taylor expansion is finitary. An application of our result is the existence of a normal form for the Taylor expansion of any strongly normalizable non-deterministic {lambda}-term.
