surreal number
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: surreal numbers
Etymology: Coined by Donald Knuth in his novelette Surreal Numbers: How Two Ex-Students Turned on to Pure Mathematics and Found Total Happiness (1974). The concept had been developed by British mathematician John Conway for his game theoretic research of the board game go. Conway had simply called them numbers, but subsequently adopted Knuth's term and used it in his book On Numbers and Games (1976).
Senses: examples: text: Conway's construction of surreal numbers relies on the use of transfinite induction.
text: Conway's approach was to build numbers from scratch using a construction inspired by his game theory research; the resulting class of surreal numbers proved much larger than the class of real numbers.
ref: 1986, Harry Gonshor, “An Introduction to the Theory of Surreal Numbers”, in Paperback, Cambridge University Press, published 1987, →ISBN:
text: • A surreal number X=(X_L,X_R) consists of two sets X_L and X_R of surreal numbers, such that no element from X_L is greater than any element from X_R.
• A surreal number Y=(Y_L,Y_R) is greater than another surreal number X=(X_L,X_R), X<Y, if and only if
− there is no x∈X_L such that Y<x, and
− there is no y∈Y_R such that y<X.
ref: 2012, Fredrik Nordvall Forsberg, Anton Setzer, A Finite Axiomatisation of Inductive-Inductive Definitions, Ulrich Berger, Hannes Diener, Peter Schuster, Monika Seisenberger (editors), Logic, Construction, Computation, Ontos Verlag, page 263, The class² of surreal numbers is defined inductively, together with an order relation on surreal numbers wich is also defined inductively
text: Here we shall follow Conway's exposition rather closely. Let L and R be two sets of numbers. Assume that no member of L is greater than or equal to any member of R. Then #92;#123;L#92;vertR#92;#125; is a surreal number. All surreal numbers are constructed in this fashion.
