It is well-known that typability, type inhabitation and type inference are undecidable in the Girard-Reynolds polymorphic system F. It has recently been proven that type inhabitation remains undecidable even in the predicative fragment of system F in which all universal instantiations have an atomic witness (system Fat). In this paper we analyze typability and type inference in system Fat and show that these two problems are decidable in the atomic polymorphic system.
