Provably Total Functions of Basic Arithmetic
Saeed Salehi, Provably Total Functions of Basic Arithmetic. Mathematical Logic Quarterly 49(3), 316–322, 2003.
Abstract:
It is shown that all the provably total functions of Basic Arithmetic BA, a theory introduced by Ruitenburg based on Predicate Basic Calculus, are primitive recursive. Along the proof a new kind of primitive recursive realizability to which BA is sound, is introduced. This realizability is similar to Kleene's recursive realizability, except that recursive functions are restricted to primitive recursives.
