Does Koepke's notion of ordinal computability admit an analogue of the Kleene $T$-predicate? If so, is the existence of such a $T$-predicate independent of $ZFC$? Also, if one assumes the existence of such a $T$-predicate, can an analogue of the Kleene hierarchy be defined for Koepke's ordinal computability, and can one define a set theory based on that analogue of the Kleene hierarchy rather than, say, the cumulative hierarchy?

  • $\begingroup$ Emil Jerabek already added one in the meantime. -- Top-level tags ("arXiv tags") are those which start with two letters followed by a dot. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ These tags describe the broad area(s) of mathematics a question belongs to. The other tags are in general for finer specification. Often people look for questions with the top-level tags for the areas they are interested in, and if a question has none, it easily gets overlooked by people who might know an answer. $\endgroup$
