the theorem that if a lambda term reduces in two different ways, both results can be reduced further to a common term, so normal forms are unique.

In programming languages, Church-Rosser theorem refers to the theorem that if a lambda term reduces in two different ways, both results can be reduced further to a common term, so normal forms are unique. This meaning comes from Church (1936) in Transactions of the American Mathematical Society.[1]
