Being <strong>standard</strong><br />

The <strong>model</strong> believes that a function f : N → N represents a<br />

<strong>standard</strong> natural number, if it is “locally constant”. More precisely:<br />

p −st(f ) ⇔ f ↾ p is bounded.<br />

In short, we end up with the <strong>model</strong> introduced by Avigad in:<br />

J. Avigad – Weak theories of <strong>non</strong><strong>standard</strong> <strong>arithmetic</strong> and analysis,<br />

in: Reverse mathematics 2001, Lect. Notes Log. 21, pp. 19–46.<br />
