Cylindric numbering
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computability theory a cylindric numbering is a special kind of numbering first introduced by Yuri L. Ershov in 1973.
If a numberings ν is reducible to μ then there exists a computable function f with . Usually f is not injective but if μ is a cylindric numbering we can always find an injective f.

[edit] Definition
A numbering ν is called cylindric if
That is if it is one equivalent to its cylindrification
A set S is called cylindric if its indicator function
is a cylindric numbering.
[edit] Examples
- every Gödel numbering is cylindric
[edit] Properties
- cylindric numberings are idempotent,
