On hierarchies of universal predicates
Abstract
We investigate a hierarchy of arithmetical structures obtained by a transfinite addition of a canonic universal predicate, where the canonic universal predicate for M is defined as a minimum universal predicate for M in terms of definability. We determine the upper bound of the hierarchy and give a characterisation for the sets definable in the hierarchy.
