A proof-theoretic characterization of the primitive recursive set functions

Journal of Symbolic Logic 57 (3):954-969 (1992)
Abstract Let KP- be the theory resulting from Kripke-Platek set theory by restricting Foundation to Set Foundation. Let G: V → V (V:= universe of sets) be a ▵0-definable set function, i.e. there is a ▵0-formula φ(x, y) such that φ(x, G(x)) is true for all sets x, and $V \models \forall x \exists!y\varphi (x, y)$ . In this paper we shall verify (by elementary proof-theoretic methods) that the collection of set functions primitive recursive in G coincides with the collection of those functions which are Σ1-definable in KP- + Σ1-Foundation + ∀ x ∃!yφ (x, y). Moreover, we show that this is still true if one adds Π1-Foundation or a weak version of ▵0-Dependent Choices to the latter theory
