Farey recursive functions

Vol. 14 (2021), No. 3, 439–461
Abstract

We introduce Farey recursive functions and investigate their basic properties. Farey recursive functions are a special type of recursive function from the rationals to a commutative ring. The recursion of these functions is organized by the Farey graph. They arise naturally in the study of 2-bridge knots and links.
