Abstract

We treat a general technique to obtain Church - Rosser extensions of the lambda-beta-calculus, based on the notion of ``confining class'' and on an infinitary version of lambda-calculus. We apply the technique to find a large class of terms which can be consistently equated to every other term, and we also show that many equations between lambda-terms can be consistently added to the the lambda-beta-calculus.
