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.
