Definitions for forms [1 AK], [1 AL], [1 AM] from Truss [1973a]

Definition:  Assume \(x\) and \(y\) are cardinal numbers

  1. \(\aleph(x)\) is the least well ordered cardinal \(\aleph\) such that \(\aleph \not \le x\).
  2. \(\alpha(x,y)\) is the least ordinal \(\alpha\) such that whenever \(\left\{z_{\gamma} : \gamma < \beta \right\}\)  is a sequence of cardinals satisfying \(x < z_{\gamma} < y\) for all \(\gamma < \beta\) and \(\gamma < \delta \to z_{\gamma} < z_{\delta}\) then \(\beta < \alpha\).
