Title
Correct computation rules for recursive languages
Abstract
This paper considers simple LISP-like languages for the recursive definition of functions, focusing upon the connections between formal computation rules for calculation and the mathematical semantics of recursive definitions. A computation rule is correct when it is capable of computing the minimal fixpoint of a recursive definition. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the correctness of rules under (a) all possible interpretations and (b) particular interpretations.
