Martin's axiom

In the mathematical field of set theory, Martin's axiom, introduced by Donald A. Martin and Robert M. Solovay, is a statement that is independent of the usual axioms of ZFC set theory. It is implied by the continuum hypothesis, but it is consistent with ZFC and the negation of the continuum hypothesis. Informally, it says that all cardinals less than the cardinality of the continuum, , behave roughly like . The intuition behind this can be understood by studying the proof of the Rasiowa–Sikorski lemma. It is a principle that is used to control certain forcing arguments. (Wikipedia).

Zermelo Fraenkel Introduction

This lecture is part of an online course on the Zermelo Fraenkel axioms of set theory. This lecture gives an overview of the axioms, describes the von Neumann hierarchy, and sketches several approaches to interpreting the axioms (Platonism, von Neumann hierarchy, multiverse, formalism, pra

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

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
