Let be a set of natural numbers. The following are all equivalent.

Property Emphasis
The elements of can be enumerated in a computable manner as Recursively enumerable
is the range of a computable partial function. Recursively enumerable
is empty or the range of a computable total function. Recursively enumerable
is empty or the range of a primitive recursive function. Recursively enumerable
is the domain of a computable partial function. "Semi"-ness
A recursive semicharacteristic function for exists. "Semi"-ness
There exists a two-place recursive relation such that "Semi"-ness
The relation is "Semi"-ness
The relation has a computable partial verifying function, i.e., there exists a computable partial function such that .[1] "Semi"-ness

The rows labeled "Recursively enumerable" all emphasize the fact that is "recursively enumerable", i.e., that the elements of can be listed in a recursive (computable) way.

The rows labeled '"Semi"-ness' all emphasize the fact that is semidecidable/recognizable/verifiable/semirecursive, i.e., that if something is in , then in a finite amount of time we can verify this computably, but that if something isn't in , then we will run into an infinite loop.
