Text of the page (random words):
ightforward however the set of primitive recursive functions does not include every possible total computable function this can be seen with a variant of cantor s diagonal argument this argument provides a total computable function that is not primitive recursive a sketch of the proof is as follows the primitive recursive functions of one argument i e unary functions can be computably enumerated this enumeration uses the definitions of the primitive recursive functions which are essentially just expressions with the composition and primitive recursion operations as operators and the basic primitive recursive functions as atoms and can be assumed to contain every definition once even though a same function will occur many times on the list since many definitions define the same function indeed simply composing by the identity function generates infinitely many definitions of any one primitive recursive function this means that the n displaystyle n th definition of a primitive recursive function in this enumeration can be effectively determined from n displaystyle n indeed if one uses some gödel numbering to encode definitions as numbers then this n displaystyle n th definition in the list is computed by a primitive recursive function of n displaystyle n let f n displaystyle f_ n denote the unary primitive recursive function given by this definition now define the evaluator function e v displaystyle ev with two arguments by e v i j f i j displaystyle ev i j f_ i j clearly e v displaystyle ev is total and computable since one can effectively determine the definition of f i displaystyle f_ i and being a primitive recursive function f i displaystyle f_ i is itself total and computable so f i j displaystyle f_ i j is always defined and effectively computable however a diagonal argument will show that the function e v displaystyle ev of two arguments is not primitive recursive suppose e v displaystyle ev were primitive recursive then the unary function g displaystyle g defined by g i s e v i i displaystyle g i s ev i i would also be primitive recursive as it is defined by composition from the successor function and e v displaystyle ev but then g displaystyle g occurs in the enumeration so there is some number n displaystyle n such that g f n displaystyle g f_ n but now g n s e v n n s f n n s g n displaystyle g n s ev n n s f_ n n s g n gives a contradiction this argument can be applied to show that the class of total computable functions cannot be enumerated in this way in particular it shows that total turing machines cannot be enumerated note however that the partial computable functions those that need not be defined for all arguments can be explicitly enumerated for instance by enumerating turing machine encodings other examples of total recursive but not primitive recursive functions are known the function that takes m to ackermann m m is a unary total recursive function that is not primitive recursive the paris harrington theorem involves a total recursive function that is not primitive recursive the sudan function the goodstein function variants edit constant functions edit instead of c n k displaystyle c_ n k alternative definitions use just one 0 ary zero function c 0 0 displaystyle c_ 0 0 as a primitive function that always returns zero and build the constant functions from the zero function the successor function and the composition operator citation needed iterative functions edit robinson 10 considered various restrictions of the recursion rule one is the so called iteration rule where the function h does not have access to the parameters x i in this case we may assume without loss of generality that the function g is just the identity as the general case can be obtained by substitution f 0 x x f s y x h y f y x displaystyle begin aligned f 0 x x f s y x h y f y x end aligned he proved that the class of all primitive recursive functions can still be obtained in this way pure recursion edit another restriction considered by robinson 10 is pure recursion where h does not have access to the induction variable y f 0 x 1 x k g x 1 x k f s y x 1 x k h f y x 1 x k x 1 x k displaystyle begin aligned f 0 x_ 1 ldots x_ k g x_ 1 ldots x_ k f s y x_ 1 ldots x_ k h f y x_ 1 ldots x_ k x_ 1 ldots x_ k end aligned gladstone 11 proved that this rule is enough to generate all primitive recursive functions gladstone 12 improved this so that even the combination of these two restrictions i e the pure iteration rule below is enough f 0 x x f s y x h f y x displaystyle begin aligned f 0 x x f s y x h f y x end aligned further improvements are possible severin 13 prove that even the pure iteration rule without parameters namely f 0 0 f s y h f y displaystyle begin aligned f 0 0 f s y h f y end aligned suffices to generate all unary primitive recursive functions if we extend the set of initial functions with truncated subtraction x y we get all primitive recursive functions if we additionally include as an initial function additional primitive recursive forms edit some additional forms of recursion also define functions that are in fact primitive recursive definitions in these forms may be easier to find or more natural for reading or writing course of values recursion defines primitive recursive functions some forms of mutual recursion also define primitive recursive functions the functions that can be programmed in the loop programming language are exactly the primitive recursive functions this gives a different characterization of the power of these functions the main limitation of the loop language compared to a turing complete language is that in the loop language the number of times that each loop will run is specified before the loop begins to run computer language definition edit an example of a primitive recursive programming language is one that contains basic arithmetic operators e g and or add and subtract conditionals and comparison if then equals less than and bounded loops such as the basic for loop where there is a known or calculable upper bound to all loops for i from 1 to n with neither i nor n modifiable by the loop body no control structures of greater generality such as while loops or if then plus goto are admitted in a primitive recursive language the loop language introduced in a 1967 paper by albert r meyer and dennis m ritchie 14 is such a language its computing power coincides with the primitive recursive functions a variant of the loop language is douglas hofstadter s bloop in gödel escher bach adding unbounded loops while goto makes the language general recursive and turing complete as are all real world computer programming languages the definition of primitive recursive functions implies that their computation halts on every input after a finite number of steps on the other hand the halting problem is undecidable for general recursive functions finitism and consistency results edit the primitive recursive functions are closely related to mathematical finitism and are used in several contexts in mathematical logic where a particularly constructive system is desired primitive recursive arithmetic pra a formal axiom system for the natural numbers and the primitive recursive functions on them is often used for this purpose pra is much weaker than peano arithmetic which is not a finitistic system nevertheless many results in number theory and in proof theory can be proved in pra for example gödel s incompleteness theorem can be formalized into pra giving the following theorem if t is a theory of arithmetic satisfying certain hypotheses with gödel sentence g t then pra proves the implication con t g t similarly many of the syntactic results in proof theory can be proved in pra which implies that there are primitive recursive functions that carry out the corresponding syntactic transformations of proofs in proof theory and set theory there is an interest in finitistic consistency proofs that is consistency proofs that themselves are finitistically acceptable such a proof establishes that the consistency of a theory t implies the consistency of a theory s by producing a primitive recursive function that can transform any proof of an inconsistency from s into a proof of an inconsistency from t one sufficient condition for a consistency proof to be finitistic is the ability to formalize it in pra for example many consistency results in set theory that are obtained by forcing can be recast as syntactic proofs that can be formalized in pra history edit recursive definitions had been used more or less formally in mathematics before but the construction of primitive recursion is traced back to richard dedekind s theorem 126 of his was sind und was sollen die zahlen 1888 this work was the first to give a proof that a certain recursive construction defines a unique function 15 16 17 primitive recursive arithmetic was first proposed by thoralf skolem 18 in 1923 the current terminology was coined by rózsa péter 1934 after ackermann had proved in 1928 that the function which today is named after him was not primitive recursive an event which prompted the need to rename what until then were simply called recursive functions 16 17 see also edit grzegorczyk hierarchy recursion computer science primitive recursive functional double recursion
