Summary

A set equipped with a distinguished zero and a unary successor operation.

Notes

The second-order Peano axioms are categorical under full second-order semantics. First-order Peano arithmetic is not categorical by the compactness and Löwenheim–Skolem theorems.

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

Choose a distinguished element 0 and a unary map S:NNS:N\to N.

How to interpret this relation type

Equip an existing carrier or structured object with additional chosen data, when such compatible data exists. Use a construction junction when several independently meaningful inputs must coexist on the same carrier or interact compatibly.

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

Require successor injectivity, zero not to be a successor, and the adopted second-order induction axiom.

How to interpret this relation type

Keep the existing data and select the subclass satisfying an additional law, existence condition, finiteness condition, or other property.
