Cumulative hierarchy information


In mathematics, specifically set theory, a cumulative hierarchy is a family of sets indexed by ordinals such that

  • If is a limit ordinal, then

Some authors additionally require that or that .[citation needed]

The union of the sets of a cumulative hierarchy is often used as a model of set theory.[citation needed]

The phrase "the cumulative hierarchy" usually refers to the standard cumulative hierarchy of the von Neumann universe with introduced by Zermelo (1930).
