Omegaverse, also known as A/B/O or α/β/Ω (an abbreviation for "alpha/beta/omega"), is a subgenre of speculative erotic fiction, and originally a subgenre of erotic slash fan fiction. Its premise is that a dominance hierarchy exists in humans, which are divided into dominant "alphas", neutral "betas", and submissive "omegas". [1]
In Archaic and early Classical times, the Greek alphabet existed in many local variants, but, by the end of the 4th century BC, the Ionic-based Euclidean alphabet, with 24 letters, ordered from alpha to omega, had become standard throughout the Greek-speaking world [6] and is the version that is still used for Greek writing today.

The set of all finite ordinals, called ω or ω 0 (where ω is the lowercase Greek letter omega), also has cardinality ℵ 0. A set has cardinality ℵ 0 if and only if it is countably infinite, that is, there is a bijection (one-to-one correspondence) between it and the natural numbers. Examples of such sets are
The term beta is also often used among manosphere communities to refer to men they consider easily taken advantage of or ignored by women. [18] [19] [20] Its usage is inconsistent; media studies scholar Debbie Ging has described the communities' theories about "alpha, beta, omega, and zeta masculinity" as "confused and contradictory". [19]
Alpha is a way to measure excess return, while beta is used to measure the volatility, or risk, of an asset. Beta might also be referred to as the return you can earn by passively owning the market.
The first written record of the phrase "alpha and omega" is from some old manuscripts of the Christian New Testament.. The phrase "I am the Alpha and the Omega" (Koiné Greek: ἐγώ εἰμί τὸ Ἄλφα καὶ τὸ Ὦ), is an appellation of Jesus and of the Father in the Book of Revelation (verses 1:8, 21:6, and 22:13).
The beta (β) of a stock or portfolio is a number describing the volatility of an asset in relation to the volatility of the benchmark that said asset is being compared to. This benchmark is generally the overall financial market and is often estimated via the use of representative indices , such as the S&P 500 .
