(** [strong_rec] allows defining a recursive function [phi] given by
    an equation [phi(n) = F(phi)(n)] where recursive calls to [phi]
    in [F] are made on strictly lower numbers than [n].

    For [strong_rec a F n]:
    - Parameter [a:A] is a default value used internally, it has no
      effect on the final result.
    - Parameter [F:(N->A)->N->A] is the step function:
      [F f n] should return [phi(n)] when [f] is a function
      that coincide with [phi] for numbers strictly less than [n].

Definition strong_rec (a : A) (f : (N.t -> A) -> N.t -> A) (n : N.t) : A :=

(* We need an assumption saying that for every n, the step function (f h n)
