Author: Johan Georg Granström Title: Polymorphism in type theory Abstract: A notion of implicit arguments is introduced. The resulting theory is a conservative extension of Martin-Löf's monomorphic type theory, with decidable type checking; and it allows for more implicit arguments than a corresponding notion used in the calculus of constructions. The conservativity of this extension is related to Salvesens result that the 1984 version of polymorphic type theory is not conservative over the monomorphic version.
