Research direction

The issue names Jeremy's notes and an existing representability result but no files or tests. Start by locating the relevant discussion and current proof that a function is representable in Q iff it is computable. Done means providing an alternative direct proof for recursive functions without using CTT.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Jeremy's notes show that a function is representable in Q iff it is computable -- want alternative way that proves this for "recursive" directly without use of CTT.
