Strong Normalization with Non-structural Subtyping. Wand, M., O'Keefe, P., & Palsberg, J. Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, 5(3):419-430, September, 1995.
Paper abstract bibtex We study a type system with a notion of subtyping that involves a largest type $\top$, a smallest type $\bot$, atomic coercions between base types, and the usual ordering of function types. We prove that any $\lambda$-term typable in this system is strongly normalizing; this solves an open problem of Thatte. We also prove that the fragment without $\bot$ types strictly fewer terms. This demonstrates that $\bot$ adds power to a type system.
