A recursively-enumerable set of natural numbers (cf. Enumerable set) whose complement is an immune set. Simple sets are intermediate in the sense of $m$-reducibility (cf. Recursive set theory) between solvable sets and creative sets. The latter are the largest among the enumerable sets in the sense of $m$-reducibility. Let $P$ be an arbitrary simple set, and let $K$ be an arbitrary creative set of natural numbers (e.g. the set of Gödel numbers of theorems of formal arithmetic); then there does not exist a general recursive function $f$ reducing $K$ to $P$, i.e. such that $$ x \in K \Leftrightarrow f(x) \in P \ . $$

Reducibility of $P$ to $K$ always takes place, but not one solvable set is reducible to $K$.

Comments

A set is hypersimple if it is recursively enumerable and its complement is a hyperimmune set.
