For almost all applications of this interpretation the density theorem is crucial [4],[5],[6]. We review Normann's model in a more abstract domain-theoretic setting [7],[8], and prove density theorems for iterated super universe operators. \medskip \noindent References: \smallskip \noindent [1] S.~C.~Kleene.
