Effective back-and-forth construction
ID: effective-back-and-forth-construction
An effective back-and-forth construction alternately extends a finite partial isomorphism of structures to include the least unused domain and range elements, searching computably for a compatible extension. If extension always exists and its finite compatibility conditions are decidable, the union is a computable isomorphism. Decidable presentations of a dense linear order without endpoints provide a basic example.
