Iterated $\Pi^1_1$-reflection and non-Gandiness underrepresented in ordinal analyses?
This is a copy of Math StackExchange question #4395977, which I felt was more appropriate for MathOverflow.
Note on terminology: "admissible", "$(^+)$-stable", and "$\Pi^1_1$-...

What's the purpose of $\mathsf M\text-\mathsf P$-expressions?
In ordinal notations such as Stegert's (Ordinal Proof Theory of Kripke–Platek Set Theory Augmented by Strong Reflection Principles) and Rathjen's (An Ordinal Analysis of parameter free $\Pi_2^1$-...

$Π_2$ strength of KP
I am looking for a characterization of the $Π_2$ statements provable in KP.
Here, KP (often denoted KPω) is the Kripke-Platek set theory, including infinity and full induction on ordinals. Here is ...

Ordinal analysis and nonrecursive ordinals
Ordinal analysis is typically described as characterizing recursive ordinals in a theory $T$, but there is a sense in which it can characterize all $T$-ordinals, even those that are nonrecursive.

Partial well-ordering of formulas
Given a theory $T$, for arbitrary formulas $φ$ and $ψ$ that provably in $T$ denote an ordinal, set $[φ]_T < [ψ]_T$ iff provably in $T$, the ordinal denoted by $φ$ is less than the ordinal denoted ...

How closely do ordinal collapsing functions relate to Skolem hulls?
Ordinal collapsing functions appear in proof theory, and they are used to name large countable ordinals by using uncountable ordinals. Previously I posted a question about why $\psi(\alpha)$ is ...

Is $\sf \Gamma_0$ the proof theoretic ordinal of this kind of predicative class theory?
Adopting the approach of Mono-sorted $\sf NBG$, define sets as elements of classes, then axiomatize:
Extensionality, Predicative Class comprehension, emptyset, in the usual manner along mono-sorted $\...

What is the proof theoretic ordinal of this kind of predicative type-set theory?
The following is a kind of Predicative Type Set Theory.
The question is about what is exactly the proof theoretic ordinal of this theory? Is it lower than the one expected for predicative theories, i....
