Recursive functions and existentially closed structures

Recursive functions and existentially closed structures

The purpose of this paper is to clarify the relationship between various conditions implying essential undecidability: our main result is that there exists a theory $T$ in which all partially recursive functions are representable, yet $T$ does not interpret Robinson's theory $R$. To this end, we borrow tools from model …
