Let (1) x′ = f(t, x) be any differential equation and S0 the set of solutions of (1) with open domain. It is known that for every g ∊ S0 a non-continuable (= saturated) ∊ S0 exists which is an extension of g. Usually is represented in the form is a sequence in S0 defined by some sort of a variant of what is called ‘recursive definition’ in set theory. It will be shown that a function
exists (P(S0) is the power set of S0) such that the above-mentioned variant can be given the form: There exists a sequence in S0 such that
