Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to answer a question raised by Grigorieff in [4]. In [4], Grigorieff proved that every infinite recursive linear ordering L is isomorphic to realtime linear ordering L′ whose universe is the binary representation of the natural numbers. Grigorieff’s proof involved two steps. First he showed that if a recursive linear ordering Lhas the property that Lhas a recursive sequence S = s 0 <L s < L … such that either S cofinal in L or S has a supremum in L or L has recursive sequence U = u 0 > L u 1 > L … such that U is coinitial in L or U has an infimum in L, then Lis recursively isomorphic to a realtime linear ordering L′ whose universe is the binary representation of the natural numbers.
