Rogers' equivalence theorem

Rogers' equivalence theorem

In computability theory Rogers' equivalence theorem characterizes the Gödel numberings, or effective numberings of the set of computable functions. The theorem is named after Hartley Rogers, Jr.

Equivalence theorem

A numbering of the set of computable functions satisfies the smn theorem and the utm theorem if and only if it is equivalent to a Gödel numbering.
