R1[x_,y_]:=x is not a function. It is a function definition. The function itself is R1. The definition cannot be returned unevaluated unless you wrap it by Hold. The function name can.

| Dec 4, 2016 at 11:11 | comment | added | Steve | I am sorry. Here is an example : R1[x+y,z]=x+y. Another example R2[xy,a]=xy. I do not want the function to return the evaluation. I want it to return the function itself (in the simple case). In the more complicated case, I would like to return a list of such functions. Each one of them is also unevaluated. | |

Sorry, I still don't understand. Can you give an example of the actual output you want? R1[x_,y_]:=x cannot be the output because it immediately evaluates. Hold[R1[x_,y_]:=x] can be. Or do you just want to write a program that evaluates R1[x_,y_]:=x (not outputs it as a result)?

You mean you want a list of function definitions, each wrapped in Hold, to avoid evaluation? Or you want to automatically define these functions?
