Extract

Following [1] we write {n} for the nth recursively enumerable (re) set; that is, {n} = {x|VyT(n, x, y)}. By a “pair (T, α)” we mean a consistent re extension T of Peano arithmetic P and an RE-formula α which numerates the non-logical axioms of T in P [4]. Given a pair (T, α) and a particular formula which binumerates the Kleene T predicate in P, there can be defined a primitive recursive function Nα such that and which has the additional property that {Nα(Nα(n))} = ø for all n.
