A set 
is called a Successor Set iff
(i)
(ii)
; 
Note that the set of natural numbers 
is not the only successor set.
For example, the set 
is also a successor set.
The set 
is called the [b]Smallest Sucessor Set[/b] because for any set 
that is a Succesor Set 
Also the set is calle dthe [b]Smallest Succesor Set[/b] because for any that is a succesor set
