Curry's system for F-deducibility is the basis for implicit type checking for programming languages such as ML. If a natural “preservation of types by conversion” rule is added it becomes undecidable, but complete relative to a variety of model classes. We show completeness for F-deducibility itself, relative to an extended notion of model which validates reduction but not conversion. Both term model and filter model proofs are given, and the extension to polymorphic typing is also considered.
