It seems an obvious focus of the matter for the fixed-point of       the successor function and perhaps sufficient that one gave its name to       the other.              And so does ω properly refer to the fixed-point of the successor function?                     --       Tristan Wibberley              The message body is Copyright (C) 2026 Tristan Wibberley except       citations and quotations noted.
