Abstract

We investigate injectivity of the novel CPS-translation with surjective pairing which is originally introduced by Hofmann-Streicher. It is syntactically proved that the CPS-translation is sound and complete not only for the λ-calculus but also for the extensional λμ-calculus. The injective CPS-translation reveals a Church-Rosser fragment of the λ-calculus with surjective pairing and a neat connection to C-monoids.
