In mathematics, primitive recursive set functions or primitive recursive ordinal functions are analogs of primitive recursive functions, defined for sets or ordinals rather than natural numbers. They were introduced by . ==Definition== A primitive recursive set function is a function from sets to sets that can be obtained from the following basic functions by repeatedly applying the following rules of substitution and recursion: The basic functions are: *Projection: ''P''''n'',''m''(''x''1,...,''x''''n'') = ''x''''m'' *Zero: ''F''(''x'') = 0 *Adjoining an element to a set: ''F''(''x'',''y'') = ''x'' ∪ *Testing membership: ''C''(''x'',''y'',''u'',''v'') = ''x'' if ''u'' ∈ ''v'', ''y'' otherwise. The rules for generating new functions by substitution are *''F''(x,y) = ''G''(x,''H''(x),y) *''F''(x,y) = ''G''(''H''(x),y) where x and y are finite sequences of variables. The rule for generating new functions by recursion is *''F''(''z'',x) = ''G''(∪''u''∈''z''''F''(''u'',x),''z'',x) A primitive recursive ordinal function is defined in the same way, except that the initial function ''F''(''x'',''y'') = ''x''∪ is replaced by ''F''(''x'') = ''x''∪ (the successor of ''x''). The primitive recursive ordinal functions are the same as the primitive recursive set functions that map ordinals to ordinals. One can also add more initial functions to obtain a larger class of functions. For example, the ordinal function ωα is not primitive recursive, because the constant function with value ω (or any other infinite set) is not primitive recursive, so one might want to add this constant function to the initial functions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Primitive recursive set function」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
