Confused by the notation in $\Omega(g) =\infty\mathbb{1}[\|w_g\|_0>k]$

$$\Omega(g) =\infty\mathbb{1}[\|w_g\|_0>k]$$

(original image)

(Note: The "$\Bbb{1}$" should be in the blackboard-bold style of, say, $\Bbb{Z}$, but it doesn't seem to render that way for me. --Blue)

I am sorry that I am confused by the symbol of Double-Struck Digit One, infinity symbol and the zero below the $w_g.$ Does one means identity matrix here or the function?:

  • $1$ belong to set
  • $0$ not belong to set

Why there is infinity before one?

What is the meaning of that zero outside the Normal Form?

  • $\mathbb{1}$ is the notation for the indicator function.

  • The $\infty$ is multiplied to the indicator function.

  • $\|v\|_0$ counts how many non-zero entries are there in $v$.
