Cantor's intersection theorem refers to two closely related theorems in general topology and real analysis, named after Georg Cantor, about intersections of decreasing nested sequences of non-empty compact sets. (Wikipedia).
Here is a wonderful theorem about the intersection of decreasing closed sets, called the Cantor Intersection Theorem, also known as the Finite Intersection Property. Enjoy! Topology Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJb1qAQIrmmA13vj9xkHGGBXRMV32EKVI Subscribe to my channel:

What is an Intersection? (Set Theory)
What is the intersection of sets? This is another video on set theory in which we discuss the intersection of a set and another set, using the classic example of A intersect B. We do not quite go over a formal definition of intersection of a set in this video, but we come very close! Be su

Counting formula for two intersecting sets: N(A union B)=N(A)+N(B)-N(A intersect B)
Previously we saw a sample space is a disjoint union and we had a summation rule to count probabilities in this scenario. Now we consider a non-disjoint union where there is a nontrivial intersection between the two sets. The formula for the number of elements in the union of A and B is th
