Keyboard graph navigation: press N for concepts or E for relations; use arrow keys, Home, and End to move; Enter selects; Shift plus Enter selects and centers; plus and minus zoom; zero fits; Escape clears the selection. Use the visible viewport buttons as alternatives to dragging, wheel, and pinch gestures.
Select a concept
Select any concept, construction junction, or annotated relation by pointer, touch, search, or keyboard.
Construction junctions are diamonds. They show where multiple structures must coexist on the same carrier and satisfy compatibility conditions.
Move selected concept
Single-pointer and keyboard alternatives to dragging. Each activation moves the selected concept one step.
The hierarchy Vα​ generated from the empty set by successor power sets and unions at limit stages; with the Foundation axiom, every set has a rank and occurs at some stage.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

transfinite stage index
Authored explanation
Ordinals index the successor and limit stages of the cumulative hierarchy, allowing the rank of a set to be stated precisely.
How to interpret this relation type
A mathematical concept supplies part of the formal language, state space, representation, or analytic machinery used by a scientific or mathematical-physics concept. The source is the mathematical predecessor; this does not claim that physical content follows from mathematics alone.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

successor stages
Authored explanation
The successor clause Vα+1​=P(Vα​) adds every subset of the preceding stage; limit stages instead take unions of all earlier stages.
How to interpret this relation type
Apply a standard functorial or canonical construction whose output is not merely a reduct of the input and is not generally an equivalent presentation of the same object.
