Introduction to sets || Set theory Overview - Part 1

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

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.

[#SoME1] A simple statement with a remarkable proof ( + Proof of Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem)

In this video, I present a very important statement that, at first, seems quite obvious, but whose proof requires some neat reasoning. I start off by explaining everything required in order to understand the problem, and then restate it in a more rigorous way. Then, I present two proofs f

Cardinality of the Continuum

What is infinity? Can there be different sizes of infinity? Surprisingly, the answer is yes. In fact, there are many different ways to make bigger infinite sets. In this video, a few different sets of infinities will be explored, including their surprising differences and even more surpris

How Big are All Infinities Combined? (Cantor's Paradox) | Infinite Series

Viewers like you help make PBS (Thank you 😃) . Support your local PBS Member Station here: https://to.pbs.org/donateinfi Infinities come in different sizes. There’s a whole tower of progressively larger "sizes of infinity". So what’s the right way to describe the size of the whole tower?

Set Theory (Part 19): Infinite Binary Sequences and Cantor's Diagonal Argument

Please feel free to leave comments/questions on the video and practice problems below! In this video, we will demonstrate two major results in set theory; first, the set of all infinite binary sequences is uncountably infinite and, secondly, the set of real numbers is uncountably infinite

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
