Basic concepts in infinite set theory | Infinity | Cardinal numbers
In mathematics, a set is countable if either it is finite or it can be made in one to one correspondence with the set of natural numbers. Equivalently, a set is countable if there exists an injective function from it into the natural numbers; this means that each element in the set may be associated to a unique natural number, or that the elements of the set can be counted one at a time, although the counting may never finish due to an infinite number of elements. In more technical terms, assuming the axiom of countable choice, a set is countable if its cardinality (its number of elements) is not greater than that of the natural numbers. A countable set that is not finite is said countably infinite. The concept is attributed to Georg Cantor, who proved the existence of uncountable sets, that is, sets that are not countable; for example the set of the real numbers. (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

Countable and Uncountable Sets - Discrete Mathematics
In this video we talk about countable and uncountable sets. We show that all even numbers and all fractions of squares are countable, then we show that all real numbers between 0 and 1 are uncountable. Full Courses: http://TrevTutor.com Join this channel to get access to perks: https://w

What is a Manifold? Lesson 4: Countability and Continuity
In this lesson we review the idea of first and second countability. Also, we study the topological definition of a continuous function and then define a homeomorphism.

Algebraic numbers are countable
Transcendental numbers are uncountable, algebraic numbers are countable. There are two kinds of real numbers: The algebraic numbers (like 1, 3/4, sqrt(2)) and the transcendental numbers (like pi or e). In this video, I show that the algebraic numbers are countable, which means that there

BM9.2. Cardinality 2: Infinite Sets
Basic Methods: We continue the study of cardinality with infinite sets. First the class of countably infinite sets is considered, and basic results given. Then we give examples of uncountable sets using Cantor diagonalization arguments.

Example of Countable Partition
Real Analysis: We give an example of a partition of the natural numbers N consisting of a countably infinite number of countably infinite subsets. Conversely we note that a countable union of countably infinite sets is countably infinite.
