   The axioms for set theory (except the Replacement Scheme and Foundation) are due to Zermelo in 1908, following the paradoxes found by Burali-Forti, Cantor, Russell, and Zermelo. Our objectives These are set out in more detail in the course synopsis. Essentially we study: (1) ZFC, Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with the Axiom of Choice.

This number can be uniquely described as “the smallest counting number which cannot be described in fewer than twenty English words”. Count them—14 words. So the number must be in the set. But it can’t be in the set. That’s

   In a preceding paper (Bull. Math. Biophysics 20, 71–93, 1958) the principle of biotopological mapping was formulated in terms of a continuous mapping of an abstract space, made from the set of biological properties which characterize the organism, by an appropriate definition of neighborhoods. In this paper it is shown that we may consider directly the mappings of the different sets of ...

   1. Introduction. Every mathematician needs a working knowledge of set theory. The purpose of this chapter is to provide some of the basic information. Some additional set theory will be discussed in Chapter VIII. Sets are a useful vocabulary in many areas of mathematics.

   What is set theory?

   • Sets and elements Set theory is a basis of modern mathematics, and notions of set theory are used in all formal descriptions. The notion of set is taken as “undefined”, “primitive”, or “basic”, so we don’t try to define what a set is, but we can give an informal description, describe important properties of sets, and give examples.

   What is a set in math?

   • Sets are a useful vocabulary in many areas of mathematics. They provide a language for stating interesting results. For example, in analysis: “a monotone function from ‘ to ‘ is continuous except, at most, on a countable set of points.”

   What is a countable set?

   • The set E is called countable if there exists a one-to-one map 0À E Ä . Thus, a countable set is one which is equivalent to a subset of (namely, the range of 0 ). A countable set may be finite or infinite. (In some books, the word “countable” is defined to mean “countable and infinite.”)

   How do you define a set?

   • According to our naive approach for defining sets, we can define a set ́ by writing ́ œ ÖE À E  E×, so that ́ is the set of all sets which are not members of themselves. Then we can ask, for this new set ́ , whether ́ − ́ is true or false. If ́ − ́ , then ́ must satisfy the requirement for being a member of ́ , that is ß ́  ́ .

   What is a subset of a set?

   • Subsets A set A is a subset of a set B iff every element of A is also an element of B. Such a relation between sets is denoted by A ⊆ B. If A ⊆ B and A ≠ B we call A a proper subset of B and write A ⊂ B. (Caution: sometimes ⊂ is used the way we are using ⊆.) Both signs can be negated using the slash / through the sign.

   What is a countable infinite set?

   • The function 1 is a one-to-one sequence whose range is EÞ Therefore a countable infinite set is one whose elements can be listed as a sequence: + " œ 1Ð"Ñß + # œ 1Ð#Ñß ÞÞÞ ß + 8 œ 1Ð8Ñß ÞÞÞ Þ 3) The set œ ÖB − À B !× is countable. This is the first really surprising example.
