\noindent
Parameter \isa{{\isacharprime}a} is the type of values stored in
the \isa{Branch}es of the tree, whereas \isa{{\isacharprime}i} is the index
type over which the tree branches. If \isa{{\isacharprime}i} is instantiated to
\isa{bool}, the result is a binary tree; if it is instantiated to
\isa{nat}, we have an infinitely branching tree because each node
has as many subtrees as there are natural numbers. How can we possibly
write down such a tree? Using functional notation! For example, the term
\begin{isabelle}%
\ \ \ \ \ Branch\ \isadigit{0}\ {\isacharparenleft}{\isasymlambda}i{\isachardot}\ Branch\ i\ {\isacharparenleft}{\isasymlambda}n{\isachardot}\ Tip{\isacharparenright}{\isacharparenright}%
\end{isabelle}
of type \isa{{\isacharparenleft}nat{\isacharcomma}\ nat{\isacharparenright}\ bigtree} is the tree whose
root is labeled with 0 and whose $i$th subtree is labeled with $i$ and
has merely \isa{Tip}s as further subtrees.
Function \isa{map{\isacharunderscore}bt} applies a function to all labels in a \isa{bigtree}:%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%
\noindent This is a valid \isacommand{primrec} definition because the
recursive calls of \isa{map{\isacharunderscore}bt} involve only subtrees obtained from
\isa{F}, i.e.\ the left-hand side. Thus termination is assured. The
seasoned functional programmer might have written \isa{map{\isacharunderscore}bt\ f\ {\isasymcirc}\ F}
instead of \isa{{\isasymlambda}i{\isachardot}\ map{\isacharunderscore}bt\ f\ {\isacharparenleft}F\ i{\isacharparenright}}, but the former is not accepted by
Isabelle because the termination proof is not as obvious since
\isa{map{\isacharunderscore}bt} is only partially applied.

but it is worth taking a look at the proof state after the induction step
to understand what the presence of the function type entails:
