Covering of ordinals

Abstract

The paper focuses on the structure of fundamental sequences of
ordinals smaller than $\e$. A first result is the construction of a
monadic second-order formula identifying a given structure, whereas
such a formula cannot exist for ordinals themselves. The structures
are precisely classified in the pushdown hierarchy. Ordinals are also
located in the hierarchy, and a direct presentation is given.
