An initial segment of the von Neumann universe. Ordinal multiplication is reversed from our usual convention; see Ordinal arithmetic.. The cumulative hierarchy is a collection of sets V α indexed by the class of ordinal numbers; in particular, V α is the set of all sets having ranks less than α.
A von Neumann architecture scheme. The von Neumann architecture—also known as the von Neumann model or Princeton architecture—is a computer architecture based on the First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC, [1] written by John von Neumann in 1945, describing designs discussed with John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert at the University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Electrical Engineering.
The von Neumann universe is built from a cumulative hierarchy . The sets L α {\displaystyle \mathrm {L} _{\alpha }} of the constructible universe form a cumulative hierarchy. The Boolean-valued models constructed by forcing are built using a cumulative hierarchy.
Value node (corresponding to each component of additively separable Von Neumann-Morgenstern utility function) is drawn as an octagon (or diamond). Arcs: Functional arcs (ending in value node) indicate that one of the components of additively separable utility function is a function of all the nodes at their tails.
A major contribution von Neumann made to measure theory was the result of a paper written to answer a question of Haar regarding whether there existed an algebra of all bounded functions on the real number line such that they form "a complete system of representatives of the classes of almost everywhere-equal measurable bounded functions". [117]
It's a classic tale: You have last-minute guests coming over for dinner or a bake sale fundraiser you didn't find out about until the night before—and now you need to concoct some tasty treats ...
The latter denotes the set in the von Neumann hierarchy indexed by the ordinal α 1. The class of all ordinal definable sets is denoted OD; it is not necessarily transitive , and need not be a model of ZFC because it might not satisfy the axiom of extensionality .
