Irrelevance, Heterogeneous Equality, and Call-by-value Dependent Type Systems

We present a full-spectrum dependently typed core language which includes both nontermination and computational irrelevance (a.k.a. erasure), a combination which has not been studied before. The two features interact: to protect type safety we must be careful to only erase terminating expressions. O...
