Abstract computability and algebraic specification
Abstract
Abstract computable functions are defined by abstract finite deterministic algorithms on many-sorted algebras. We show that there exist finite universal algebraic specifications that specify uniquely (up to isomorphism) (i) all abstract computable functions on any many-sorted algebra; (ii) all functions effectively approximable by abstract computable functions on any metric algebra. We show that there exist universal algebraic specifications …
