Abstract

Extending Aanderaa’s classical result that $\pi ^{1}_{1} < \sigma ^{1}_{1}$ , we determine the order between any two patterns of iterated $\Sigma ^{1}_{1}$ - and $\Pi ^{1}_{1}$ -reflection on ordinals. We show that this order of linear reflection is a prewellordering of length $\omega ^{\omega }$ . This requires considering the relationship between linear and some non-linear reflection patterns, such as $\sigma \wedge \pi $ , the pattern of simultaneous $\Sigma ^{1}_{1}$ - and $\Pi ^{1}_{1}$ -reflection. The proofs involve linking the lengths of $\alpha $ -recursive wellorderings to various forms of stability and reflection properties satisfied by ordinals $\alpha $ within standard and non-standard models of set theory.
