Extract

Comparability of classes. Till now we tried to get along without the axioms Vc and Vd. We found that this is possible in number theory and analysis as well as in general set theory, even keeping in the main to the usual way of procedure.

For the considerations of the present section application of the axioms Vc, Vd is essential. Our axiomatic basis here consists of the axioms I—III, V*, Vc, and Vd. From V*, as we know, Va and Vb are derivable. We here take axiom V* in order to separate the arguments requiring the axiom of choice from the others. Instead of the two axioms V* and Vc, as was observed in Part II, V** may be taken as well.

69 Our class Π corresponds to von Neumann's “Bereich Π” (loc. cit. p. 237), our Ψ to his function ψ (p. 236); however, our definition of Ψ is somewhat simpler than von Neumann's definition of ψ.

70 This observation, mentioned already in Part II (§4, p. 6), was communicated to the author by Gödel in July 1939.
