Adherence formulas for Gao stages #
Stage indices whose coordinate projections dominate a given function; used to select finite minimal dominators.
Equations
- OrderClosures.gaoDominators ξ γ b = {ζ : ↑(OrderClosures.GaoIndex ξ) | ζ ∈ OrderClosures.GaoStageIndices ξ γ ∧ b ≤ OrderClosures.ordinalProjection ξ ζ}
Instances For
Minimal elements of the dominator set in the CNF extension order; used to reduce a positive directed family to finitely many coordinates.
Equations

Instances For
Extracts a coordinate projection dominating a positive Gao-stage element; this starts the finite-minimal-dominator reduction.
Refines any dominator to a minimal one; used to replace arbitrary dominating coordinates by a finite canonical family.
Shows that distinct minimal dominators are CNF-incomparable; used with the incomparable-projection infimum theorem.
Proves finiteness of the minimal dominator family; needed to combine it with directedness of the positive approximating set.
Produces one Gao-stage coordinate dominating an entire directed positive family; this is the main input to the forward adherence inclusion.
Establishes the forward inclusion for one order-adherence step by using a single coordinate dominator.
Singleton omega monomials with exponent below γ; used as the directed
approximating family for a limit-stage coordinate.
Equations
- OrderClosures.singletonCNFBelow γ = {q : Ordinal.{?u.1} | ∃ (δ : Ordinal.{?u.1}) (d : Ordinal.{?u.1}), Ordinal.CNF Ordinal.omega0 q = [(δ, d)] ∧ q < Ordinal.omega0 ^ γ}
Instances For
Shows that singleton CNF monomials below γ have supremum ω^γ; used to
construct the reverse adherence approximation at limit exponents.
Turns a strict exponent inequality into a strict CNF extension of
singleton monomials; used by gaoIndex_approximation.
Appending a smaller singleton CNF term to a finite prefix computes its normal form.
Builds a directed family of earlier-stage indices whose projections order converge to a prescribed next-stage projection.
Establishes the reverse inclusion for a successor Gao stage from the explicit coordinate approximations.
Packages both inclusions into the one-step Gao-stage formula; used by the
transfinite induction in gao_orderAdherence_stage_formula.
