The
Lévy hierarchy
classifies
formulas
of
set theory
by their alternations of unbounded quantifiers, ignoring
bounded quantifiers
of the forms
∀
x
∈
y
and
∃
x
∈
y
.

Lévy hierarchy
A
formula
is
Δ
1
ZF
when ZF proves it equivalent both to
a
Σ
1
formula
and to
a
Π
1
formula
. Such
formulas
are absolute between suitable transitive
models
of finite fragments of ZF.
