Closed unbounded class of ordinals (source code)

= Closed unbounded class of ordinals

= Closed unbounded class
{synonym}

An unbounded <class in set theory> of <ordinals> is closed if every nonempty set-sized increasing sequence of its members has its supremum in the class. This is the proper-class analogue of a <club set>. The <reflection theorem for definable hierarchies> gives such a class for every finite collection of <first-order formulas>.
