2.4.17  Well-founded recursion
Syntax	cfrecs 8216	Declare the syntax for the well-founded recursion generator. See df-frecs 8217.
class frecs(𝑅, 𝐴, 𝐹)
Definition	df-frecs 8217*	This is the definition for the well-founded recursion generator. Similar to df-wrecs 8248 and df-recs 8297, it is a direct definition form of normally recursive relationships. Unlike the former two definitions, it only requires a well-founded set-like relationship for its properties, not a well-ordered relationship. This proof requires either a partial order or the axiom of infinity. We develop the theorems twice, once with a partial order and once without. The second development occurs later in the database, after ax-inf 9535 has been introduced. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 23-Dec-2021.)

Theorem	fpr3g 8221*	Functions defined by well-founded recursion over a partial order are identical up to relation, domain, and characteristic function. This version of frr3g 9656 does not require infinity. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 24-Aug-2022.)

Theorem	frrlem11 8232*	Lemma for well-founded recursion. For the next several theorems we will be aiming to prove that dom 𝐹 = 𝐴. To do this, we set up a function 𝐶 that supposedly contains an element of 𝐴 that is not in dom 𝐹 and we show that the element must be in dom 𝐹. Our choice of what to restrict 𝐹 to depends on if we assume partial orders or the axiom of infinity. To begin with, we establish the functionality of 𝐶. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 7-Dec-2022.)

Theorem	wfr1 8262	The Principle of Well-Ordered Recursion, part 1 of 3. We start with an arbitrary function 𝐺. Then, using a base class 𝐴 and a set-like well-ordering 𝑅 of 𝐴, we define a function 𝐹. This function is said to be defined by "well-ordered recursion". The purpose of these three theorems is to demonstrate the properties of 𝐹. We begin by showing that 𝐹 is a function over 𝐴.

class recs(𝐹)
Definition	df-recs 8297	Define a function recs(𝐹) on On, the class of ordinal numbers, by transfinite recursion given a rule 𝐹 which sets the next value given all values so far. See df-rdg 8335 for more details on why this definition is desirable. Unlike df-rdg 8335 which restricts the update rule to use only the previous value, this version allows the update rule to use all previous values, which is why it is described as "strong", although it is actually more primitive. See recsfnon 8328 and recsval 8329 for the primary contract of this definition. (Contributed by Stefan O'Rear, 18-Jan-2015.) (Revised by Scott Fenton, 3-Aug-2020.)
