Theorem
Let $\Gamma$ be a limit ordinal.
Let $\hointr 0 \Gamma$ denote the open ordinal space on $\Gamma$.
Consider the set $\BB$ of subsets of $\hointr 0 \Gamma$ of the form:
- $\openint \alpha {\beta + 1} = \hointl \alpha \beta = \set {x \in \hointr 0 \Gamma: \alpha < x < \beta + 1}$
for $\alpha, \beta \in \hointr 0 \Gamma$.
![]() | This article, or a section of it, needs explaining. In particular: It's unclear from the source work used whether this is the basis for the Open Ordinal Topology or Closed Ordinal Topology. You can help $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ by explaining it. To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page. When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{Explain}} from the code. |
Then $\BB$ forms a basis for $\hointr 0 \Gamma$.
