The Axiom of Choice | Epic Math Time
The axiom of choice states that the cartesian product of nonempty sets is nonempty. This doesn't sound controversial, and it might not even sound interesting, but adopting the axiom of choice has far reaching consequences in mathematics, and applying it in proofs has a very distinctive qua

What's so wrong with the Axiom of Choice ?
One of the Zermelo- Fraenkel axioms, called axiom of choice, is remarkably controversial. It links to linear algebra and several paradoxes- find out what is so strange about it ! (00:22) - Math objects as sets (00:54) - What axioms we use ? (01:30) - Understanding axiom of choice (03:2

This is part of a series of lectures on the Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms for set theory. We dicuss the axiom of chice, and sketch why it is independent of the other axioms of set theory. For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8yHsr3EFj52EKVgPi-p50f

Choosing a decision rule, from Bayesian and frequentist perspectives. To make the problem well-defined from the frequentist perspective, some additional guiding principle is introduced such as unbiasedness, minimax, or invariance.

The Simplest Math No One Can Agree on- A Paradox of Choice
To build our mathematics we need a starting point, rules to dictate what we can do and assumed basic truths to serve as a foundation as we seek understanding of higher level problems. But what happens when we can't agree on what we should start with?

Choice Functions and Length: Why you can't measure everything you choose
I haven't talked about the axiom of choice in a while, and the relationship between choice functions and length (or size) and why you can't measure everything you choose seemed like a good way to do so. The interplay between choice functions and how one can construct sets for which measure

At the end, I misspoke: the correct statement would be that the axiom of choice (or the choice function) is not constructive.

Set Theory (Part 5): Functions and the Axiom of Choice
Please feel free to leave comments/questions on the video and practice problems below! In this video, I introduce functions as a special sort of relation, go over some function-related terminology, and also prove two theorems involving left- and right-inverses, with the latter theorem nic

Choice Functions & The Axiom of Choice | Nathan Dalaklis
The Axiom of Choice is often stated in an equivalent form; the Cartesian product of a collection of non-empty sets is non-empty, however, what is the original statement, and what does it have to do with functions? Also, what is a choice function? In this discussion of the axiom of choice,
