Fascinating, I thought Tennanbaum’s theorem implied non-standard models were rather impossible to visualize. The non-standard model of Peano arithmetic illustrated in the diagram only gives the successor relation, there’s no definition of addition and multiplication. Tennenbaum’s theorem implies there’s no computable way to do this, but is there a proof that they can be defined at all for this particular model?
