You can find the definition for lambda notation, @x and $x here.

Also, when I say that A in lambda notation = B in standard ordinal notation, I mean that Ψ(@A) in lambda notation = Ψ($B) in standard ordinal notation.

λ0 = Ω, Ψ(x,1) (x < Ω) = Ω1+x, and Ψ(λ0(x),1) (x ≥ Ω) = Ωx.

Ψ(λ0(Ψ(λ0,1)x),1) = ΨI(x), Ψ(λ0(Ψ(λ0,1)x)+y,1) = about ΩΨI(x)+y ,Ψ(λ0(@Ψ(λ0,1)),1) = ΨI($I), and Ψ(λ0,1) = I.

Up to I_2[]

We do something similar to the last 2 sections here. Ψ(λ0+x,1) (x < Ω) = Ω1+x and Ψ(λ00(x),1) (x ≥ Ω) = Ωx. Then, Ψ(λ00(Ψ(λ02,1)x),1) = ΨI2(x), Ψ(λ00(Ψ(λ02,1)x)+y,1) = about ΩΨI2(x)+y ,Ψ(λ00(@Ψ(λ02,1)),1) = ΨI($I2), and Ψ(λ02,1) = I2.

Up to I(1,0)[]

Up to I(2,0)[]

Up to Ψ_I(1,0,0)(0)[]

Up to I(1,0,0)[]

Comparisons get more complex here because of how λ0 works inside of function F(x) = Ψ(x,1).
