Strictly Well-Founded Relation: Also known as
A strictly well-founded relation is also known in the literature as a foundational relation.
It is commonplace in the literature and on the internet to use the term well-founded relation for strictly well-founded relation.
However, $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ prefers the more cumbersome and arguably more precise strictly well-founded relation in preference to all others.
Some sources do not hyphenate, and present the name as strictly wellfounded relation.
