This is the HOL4 answer to the question.
If you know the name and theory of the constant, then
prim_mk_const {Thy = thy, Name = name}
will give you back the constant “as defined”. So that
type_of (prim_mk_const {Thy = "min", Name = "="})
gives back
val it = ``:α -> α -> bool``: hol_type
To get the name and theory of a constant, you can call
dest_thy_const : term -> {Thy:string,Name:string,Ty:hol_type}
I hope this helps,
