Theorem onsupsucismax 43856

Description: If the union of a set of ordinals is a successor ordinal, then that union is the maximum element of the set. This is not a bijection because sets where the maximum element is zero or a limit ordinal exist. Lemma 2.11 of [Schloeder] p. 5. (Contributed by RP, 27-Jan-2025.)

Assertion

Ref	Expression
onsupsucismax	⊢ ((𝐴 ⊆ On ∧ 𝐴 ∈ 𝑉) → (∃𝑏 ∈ On ∪ 𝐴 = suc 𝑏 → ∪ 𝐴 ∈ 𝐴))

Distinct variable group:   𝐴,𝑏

Allowed substitution hint:   𝑉(𝑏)
