Continuum (set theory)

In the mathematical field of set theory, the continuum means the real numbers, or the corresponding (infinite) cardinal number, denoted by . Georg Cantor proved that the cardinality is larger than the smallest infinity, namely, . He also proved that is equal to , the cardinality of the power set of the natural numbers. The cardinality of the continuum is the size of the set of real numbers. The continuum hypothesis is sometimes stated by saying that no cardinality lies between that of the continuum and that of the natural numbers, , or alternatively, that . (Wikipedia).

Introduction to sets || Set theory Overview - Part 2

A set is the mathematical model for a collection of different things; a set contains elements or members, which can be mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other #sets. The #set with no element is the empty

What is a Set Complement?

What is the complement of a set? Sets in mathematics are very cool, and one of my favorite thins in set theory is the complement and the universal set. In this video we will define complement in set theory, and in order to do so you will also need to know the meaning of universal set. I go

The Continuum Hypothesis

Should the power class of any non-empty set even be a set? It's not in constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel, but once you add the Axiom of Choice you end up in ZFC where you have to assign it a cardinal number. But then, well-orderings on something like the reals provably exist that are not descr

David Michael ROBERTS - Class forcing and topos theory

It is well-known that forcing over a model of material set theory co rresponds to taking sheaves over a small site (a poset, a complete Boolean algebra, and so on). One phenomenon that occurs is that given a small site, all new subsets created are smaller than a fixed bound depending on th

Zermelo Fraenkel Powerset

This is part of a series of lectures on the Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms for set theory. We discuss the powerset axiom, the strongest of the ZF axioms, and explain why the notion of a powerset is so hard to pin down precisely. For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com
