Multiexpansion refers to the function \(a\ \{\{2\}\}\ b = \{a,b,2,2\} = \underbrace{a \{\{1\}\} a \{\{1\}\} \ldots \{\{1\}\} a \{\{1\}\} a}_{\text{b a's}}\), using BEAF.[1] Or a expanded to a for b times.
In the fast-growing hierarchy, \(f_{\omega+2}(n)\) corresponds to multiexpandal growth rate.
Examples
- {a,3,2,2} = a{{1}}a{{1}}a. This is equal to a expanded to (a expanded to a). Let A = a{a{a...a{a{a}a}a...a}a}a (a expanded to a), then {a,3,2,2} = A{A...A{A}A...A}A (A expanded to A)
- {3,2,2,2} = 3{{2}}3 = 3{{1}}3{{1}}3 = {3,3,1,2}
- {4,2,2,2} = {4,4,1,2}
- {3,3,2,2} = 3{{2}}3{{2}}3 = {3,{3,3,1,2},1,2}
- {4,3,2,2} = {4,{4,4,1,2},1,2}
Pseudocode
Below is an example of pseudocode for multiexpansion.
function multiexpansion(a, b):
result := a
repeat b - 1 times:
result := expansion(a, result)
return result
function expansion(a, b):
result := a
repeat b - 1 times:
result := hyper(a, a, result + 2)
return result
function hyper(a, b, n):
if n = 1:
return a + b
result := a
repeat b - 1 times:
result := hyper(a, result, n - 1)
return result
