| Description | I analyze the notion of beta-reduction within Tichy's partial type theory. Since the framework adopts partial functions, the most known beta-reduction, viz. beta-reduction by name is invalid in it. I show that the reason invalidates also an attemtp to define unconditionalized, non-strict beta-reduction, thus Tichy's conditionalized beta-reduction is still a plausible proposal. I define also a correct version of beta-reduction by value. |
