Theorem onsetrec 48800

Description: Construct On using set recursion. When 𝑥 ∈ On, the function 𝐹 constructs the least ordinal greater than any of the elements of 𝑥, which is ∪ 𝑥 for a limit ordinal and suc ∪ 𝑥 for a successor ordinal.

For example, (𝐹‘{1_o, 2_o}) = {∪ {1_o, 2_o}, suc ∪ {1_o, 2_o}} = {2_o, 3_o} which contains 3_o, and (𝐹‘ω) = {∪ ω, suc ∪ ω} = {ω, ω +_o 1_o}, which contains ω. If we start with the empty set and keep applying 𝐹 transfinitely many times, all ordinal numbers will be generated.

Any function 𝐹 fulfilling lemmas onsetreclem2 48798 and onsetreclem3 48799 will recursively generate On; for example, 𝐹 = (𝑥 ∈ V ↦ suc suc ∪ 𝑥}) also works. Whether this function or the function in the theorem is used, taking this theorem as a definition of On is unsatisfying because it relies on the different properties of limit and successor ordinals. A different approach could be to let 𝐹 = (𝑥 ∈ V ↦ {𝑦 ∈ 𝒫 𝑥 ∣ Tr 𝑦}), based on dfon2 35756.

The proof of this theorem uses the dummy variable 𝑎 rather than 𝑥 to avoid a distinct variable condition between 𝐹 and 𝑥. (Contributed by Emmett Weisz, 22-Jun-2021.)
