Sep 14, 2010 at 10:18 comment added Antonio E. Porreca Joel, me and one of my colleagues were just toying with that idea; we’re not sure about the interpretation either (except maybe for a “universe without a beginning” where time has the same order type as ℤ).

Sep 12, 2010 at 16:30 comment added Joel David Hamkins Antonio, are you proposing in particular to extend Turing machine operation into non-well-founded time? This is very interesting, but I am not clear on what it would mean. Meanwhile, Peter Koepke has extended infinite time Turing machines to use ordinal-length tapes, and quite successfully analyzed their power.

Sep 12, 2010 at 11:44 comment added Yuval Filmus A nice book on ordered sets is "Linear orderings" by Rosenstein.
