Huge Cardinal - Consistency Strength

Consistency Strength

The cardinals are arranged in order of increasing consistency strength as follows:

  • almost n-huge
  • super almost n-huge
  • n-huge
  • super n-huge
  • almost n+1-huge

The consistency of a huge cardinal implies the consistency of a supercompact cardinal, nevertheless, the least huge cardinal is smaller than the least supercompact cardinal (assuming both exist).

Famous quotes containing the words consistency and/or strength:

    The lawyer’s truth is not Truth, but consistency or a consistent expediency.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The essence of the modern state is that the universal be bound up with the complete freedom of its particular members and with private well-being, that thus the interests of family and civil society must concentrate themselves on the state.... It is only when both these moments subsist in their strength that the state can be regarded as articulated and genuinely organized.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
