Abstract We present a formalized proof of the regularity of the infinity predicate on ground terms. This predicate plays an important role in the first-order theory of rewriting because it allows to express the termination property. The paper also contains a formalized proof of a direct tree automaton construction of the normal form predicate, due to Comon.

AbstractLet T be a complete countable first order theory and λ an uncountable cardinal. Theorem 1. If T is not superstable, T has 2λ resplendent models of power λ. Theorem 2. If T is strictly superstable, then T has at least min(2λ, ℶ2) resplendent models of power λ. Theorem 3. If T is not superstable or is small and strictly superstable, then every resplendent homogeneous model of T is saturated. Theorem 4 (with Knight). For each μ ∈ ω ∪ {ω, 2ω} there is a recursive theory in a finite language which has μ resplendent models of power κ for every infinite κ.
