Proof. If \( \alpha < \beta \), then \( \alpha = \beta \cdot 0 + \alpha \land \alpha < \beta \) . If \( \beta \leqq \alpha \) and \( \gamma = \sup \{ \delta \mid {\beta \delta } \leqq \alpha \} \) then \( \gamma \geqq 1 \) . Suppose that \( \alpha < {\beta v} \) .

Proposition 8.29. \( \gamma \in {K}_{\text{II }} \land m \neq 0 \rightarrow m\left( {\gamma + n}\right) = \gamma + {mn} \) .

Proposition 8.37. \( \alpha > 1 \rightarrow \beta \leqq {\alpha }^{\beta } \) .
Proof (By transfinite induction on \( \beta \) ). For \( \beta = 0 \) we have \( 0 \leqq {\alpha }^{0} = 1 \) . If \( \beta \leqq {\alpha }^{\beta } \) then \( \beta + 1 \leqq {\alpha }^{\beta } + 1 \) .
