Set theory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation search Set theory is the mathematical theory of sets , which represent collections of abstract objects . It encompasses the everyday notions, introduced in primary school , often as Venn diagrams , of collections of objects, and the elements of, and membership in, such collections. In most modern mathematical formalisms, set theory provides the language in which mathematical objects are described. Along with logic and the predicate calculus , it is one of the axiomatic foundations for mathematics , allowing mathematical objects to be constructed formally from the undefined terms of "set" and "set membership". It is in its own right a branch of mathematics and an active field of mathematical research. In naive set theory , sets are introduced and understood using what is taken to be the self-evident concept of sets as collections of objects considered as a whole. In axiomatic set theory , the concepts of sets and set membership are defined indirectly by first postulating certain axioms which specify their properties. In this conception, sets and set membership are fundamental concepts like

1. The Essence of Set Theory
The objects of study of Set Theory are sets . As sets are fundamental objects that can be used to define all other concepts in mathematics, they are not defined in terms of more fundamental concepts. Rather, sets are introduced either informally, and are understood as something self-evident, or, as is now standard in modern mathematics, axiomatically, and their properties are postulated by the appropriate formal axioms. The language of set theory is based on a single fundamental relation, called membership . We say that A is a member of B (in symbols A B ), or that the set B contains A as its element. The understanding is that a set is determined by its elements; in other words, two sets are deemed equal if they have exactly the same elements. In practice, one considers sets of numbers, sets of points, sets of functions, sets of some other sets and so on. In theory, it is not necessary to distinguish between objects that are members and objects that contain members the only objects one needs for the theory are sets. See the supplement Basic Set Theory for further discussion.

The history of set theory is rather different from the history of most other areas of mathematics. For most areas a long process can usually be traced in which ideas evolve until an ultimate flash of inspiration, often by a number of mathematicians almost simultaneously, produces a discovery of major importance. Set theory however is rather different. It is the creation of one person, Georg Cantor . Before we take up the main story of Cantor 's development of the theory, we first examine some early contributions. The idea of infinity had been the subject of deep thought from the time of the Greeks. Zeno of Elea , in around 450 BC, with his problems on the infinite, made an early major contribution. By the Middle Ages discussion of the infinite had led to comparison of infinite sets. For example Albert of Saxony , in Questiones subtilissime in libros de celo et mundi, proves that a beam of infinite length has the same volume as 3-space. He proves this by sawing the beam into imaginary pieces which he then assembles into successive concentric shells which fill space. Bolzano was a philosopher and mathematician of great depth of thought. In 1847 he considered sets with the following definition

Axiomatic set theory
I will informally list the undefined notions, the axioms lines of Bourbaki's equivalent ZFC model. (But some of the axioms are identical to some in ZFC; see the entry ZermeloFraenkelAxioms.) The intention here is just to give an idea of the level and scope of these fundamental things. There are three undefined notions: 1. the relation of equality of two sets 2. the relation of membership of one set in another ( 3. the notion of an

03E: Set theory
Introduction
Naive set theory considers elementary properties of the union and intersection operators Venn diagrams, the DeMorgan laws, elementary counting techniques such as the inclusion-exclusion principle, partially ordered sets, and so on. This is perhaps as much of set theory as the typical mathematician uses. Indeed, one may "construct" the natural numbers, real numbers, and so on in this framework. However, situations such as Russell's paradox show that some care must be taken to define what, precisely, is a set. However, results in mathematical logic imply it is impossible to determine whether or not these axioms are consistent using only proofs expressed in this language. Assuming they are indeed consistent, there are also statements whose truth or falsity cannot be determined from them. These statements (or their negations!) can be taken as axioms for set theory as well. For example, Cohen's technique of forcing showed that the Axiom of Choice is independent of the other axioms of ZF. (That axiom states that for every collection of nonempty sets, there is a set containing one element from each set in the collection.) This axiom is equivalent to a number of other statements (e.g. Zorn's Lemma) whose assumption allows the proof of surprising even paradoxical results such as the Banach-Tarski sphere decomposition. Thus, some authors are careful to distinguish results which depend on this or other non-ZF axioms; most assume it (that is, they work in ZFC Set Theory).

edit Before You Begin
In order to make things easier for you as a reader, as well as for the writers, you will be expected to be familiar with a few topics before beginning. (I hope to have some links to other Wikibooks here soon.)
  • Mathematical Logic
    • Mathematics is all about proofs. One of the goals of this book is to improve your skills in doing proofs, but you will not learn any of the basics here. Many constructions in set theory are simply generalizations of constructions in mathematical logic, and therefore logic is a necessity of learning set theory.

    A Wikibook is very different from a standard textbook, and this is simultaneously a great strength and a great weakness.

typing . Another, more popular solution would be introduced by Zermelo. But first let us say a few words about the achievements of Cantor.
We include Cantor in our historical overview, not because of his direct contribution to logic and the formalization of mathematics, but rather because he initiated the study of infinite sets and numbers which have provided such fascinating material, and difficulties, for logicians. After all, a natural foundation for mathematics would need to talk about sets of real numbers, etc., and any reasonably expressive system should be able to cope with one-to-one correspondences and well-orderings. Cantor started his career by working in algebraic and analytic number theory. Indeed his PhD thesis, his Habilitation, and five papers between 1867 and 1880 were devoted to this area. At Halle, where he was employed after finishing his studies, Heine persuaded him to look at the subject of trigonometric series, leading to eight papers in analysis. In two papers 1870/1872 Cantor studied when the sequence converges to 0. Riemann had proved in 1867 that if this happened on an interval and the coefficients were Fourier coefficients then the coefficients converge to as well. Consequently a Fourier series converging on an interval must have coefficients converging to 0. Cantor first was able to drop the condition that the coefficients be Fourier coefficients consequently any trigonometric series convergent on an interval had coefficients converging to 0. Then in 1872 he was able to show the same if the trigonometric series converged on

BOUNDED SET THEORY: Home Page
Bounded Set Theory (BST) is a weak version of the ordinary set theory. Its main feature is paying main attention to using bounded quantification (as in the ordinary everyday mathematical practice) and other analogous bounded constructs. The language of this set theory, called DELTA, allows to define both set-theoretic (bounded) formulas and operations. The main universe of sets for BST consists of hereditarily-finite sets and is called HF. However, the universe for Zermelo-Frenkel set theory does as well. Moreover, it is considered also so called antifounded version of HF, called HFA, which satisfies finite version of Aczel's Antifoundation Axiom . Antifounded sets are also called hypersets . This correlates very happily with the concept of HyperText used for creating World-Wide Web (WWW)-pages with hyperlincs between them. Antifounded version of BST is called BSTA. There exists corresponding version of the language DELTA. This language may be naturally interpreted as query language for nested databases with very arbitrary and flexible structure. Such kind of databases may be considered also as

    Earliest Uses of Symbols of Set Theory and Logic
    Last updated: Sept. 29, 2007 The study of logic goes back more than two thousand years and in that time many symbols and diagrams have been devised. Around 300 BC Aristotle introduced letters as term-variables, a "new and epoch-making device in logical technique." (W. & M. Kneale The Development of Logic (1962, p. 61). The modern era of mathematical notation in logic began with George Boole (1815-1864), although none of his notation survives. Set theory came into being in the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries, largely a creation of Georg Cantor (1845-1918). See MacTutor's A history of set theory or, for more detail, Set theory from the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy Most of the basic symbols of logic and set theory in use today were introduced between 1880 and 1920. The main contributors were Ernst Schröder Giuseppe Peano Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) and Bertrand Russell (1872-1970). Peano had a strong influence on Whitehead and Russell and their joint work, Principia Mathematica (1910-1913), was itself very influential. Today

    Set theory
    In mathematics a formal system is a set of axiom s and the rules of logic for deriving theorems from those axioms. It can be thought of as a computer program for outputting theorems. We can write a program to output all the theorems for any formal system. The axioms say what primitive objects and relationships exist and how new objects can be constructed. In set theory there is one primitive object, the empty set , and one relationship, set membership . All of mathematics can be modeled with these primitives. For example the integer 1 is defined as the set that contains the empty set. The integer two is the set containing 1 and the empty set. Integer N is the set containing the empty set and all integers less than N The most powerful generally accepted formal system is Zermelo Fraenkel (ZF ) set theory . We will list the axioms of ZF adapted from Cohen(50)[ ]. First we need to explain the notation. Sometimes we refer to arbitrary statements in the language of ZF with upper case letters. A refers to any valid statement in the language of ZF.

    Set theory grew out of analysis through Georg Cantor's work on sets of uniquness of trigonometric series. Ever since, the two subjects have had a special relationship, at times close and at others distant, but there has always existed a possibility of interaction with the potential of enriching both subjects. In recent years there has been a number of important developments on the confluence of the two subjects. Examples include Gowers' dichotomy theorem in functional analysis which was motivated by the Galvin Prikry partition theorem in infinitary combinators, the theorem of Harrington, Kechris, Louveau which extends the well known Glimm Effros dichotomy on the structure of the orbit spaces of a transformation group and which gave rise to a rich theory of Borel equivalence relations, the recent solution of Talagrand of the famous Control Measure Problem which has numerous ramifications for the theory of Boolean algebras and forcing, etc. The goal of this conference is to investigate this interactions between the two subjects by bringing together a number researchers from set theory and analysis. The intention is that the talk should be accessible to the specialists from the other subjects. We are particularly interested in exploring new connections and we plan to hold a special problem session the last day of the conference.

    Common Sets
    Some sets are commonly used and so have special notation:
    Other Notation
    Subsets B ( means is a subset of).
    Number of Members If A A ) = 4. This is because n( A ) means the number of members in set A
    The Universal Set The universal set is the set of all sets. All sets are therefore subsets of the universal set.
    Venn Diagrams
    Venn diagrams are used to represent sets. Here, the set A A is a subset of the universal set and so it is within the rectangle. The complement of A, written A', contains all events in the sample space which are not members of A. A and A' together cover every possible eventuality. A B means the union of sets A and B and contains all of the elements of both A and B. This can be represented on a Venn Diagram as follows:

    Extending the Language of Set Theory
    Abstract: We discuss the problems of incompleteness and inexpressibility. We introduce almost self-referential formulas, use them to extend set theory, and relate their expressive power to that of infinitary logic. We discuss the nature of proper classes. Finally, we introduce and axiomatize a powerful extension to set theory. List of Sections: Introduction and Outline Incompleteness and Inexpressibility Almost Self-Referential Formulas Expressive Power of the Extensions ... Higher Order Set Theory
    Introduction and Outline
    Despite vast advances in set theory and mathematics in general, the language of set theory, which is also the language of mathematics, has remained the same since the beginning of modern set theory and first order logic. That formal language has served us well, but it is of necessity limited, and does not adequately deal with properties for which there is no set of all objects satisfying the property. The purpose of this paper is to address the deficiencies in the expressive power of ordinary set theory. The second section discusses incompleteness and inexpressibility in general. Much of the paper discusses logic that allows some self-reference but with limitations to prevent loops and infinite regress. The logic is more expressive than (a formulation of) infinitary logic. We show that levels of infinitary logic correspond to levels of almost self-referential logic and levels of constructible hierarchy above V. We use strong logics and weak set theories to clarify the strengths of inaccessible and Mahlo cardinals. We also use large cardinals to get reflection principles, and use reflection principles to axiomatize extensions to the language of set theory.

    Notation:
    As you may have surmised from the terminology section, the following conventions for notation are used in set theory:
    • A, B, X: capital letters denote sets
    • a, b, x: lowercase letters denote elements of sets
    Venn Diagrams
    When working with sets, it is often easier to visualise concepts with a picture. We can do this with Venn Diagrams . A set is drawn as a geometric area ( e.g. circle, rectangle) and shading is used to indicate a specific portion of the set or sets. Here are some Venn Diagrams that illustrate the concepts we have already discussed: Element Subset Intersection Union x A A X, B

    To Guide Entry
    The following unit is designed to offer teachers and children a chance to explore what may be to them a different area of Finite Mathematics. While in no way does the unit cover the entire fields of Set Theory and Logic, it does, I hope, offer an introduction to the basic concepts, symbols and importance of these two fields of Mathematics. As you will see, Set Theory and Logic are related and have therefore been combined for the content of this unit. The unit is approximately two weeks in length and is intended for grade 6,7, or 8 although both length and grade level may vary. We will begin with a short Pretest. The purpose of the pretest is twofold. On one hand it will give some barometer of success (there will be a posttest) and hopefully the pretest will foster discussion and motivate children to want to hear more.

    Notes On The Concept of Quantum Set Theory
  • Introduction
  • Classical Set theory: symmetric difference and complementation
  • Duality Maps
  • Boolean Algebras (Rings) ...
  • Quantum Categories
    Introduction This continues the introductory essay on the physical notions of quantum set theory The idea of quantum set theory, while it sounds to be of a mathematical nature, is necesarily of a physical nature if one means to quantize "points" that comprise sets in such a way that they are treated as physical objects with physical properties. Although there is a fair amount of pure mathematics below, the hard part comes when having to decide on the physics of treating the concept so that it becomes reduced to something which adequately deals with "physical space" and its classically approximate locally Euclidean E Though the expression of quantum theory is highly mathematical, the physical theory is indeed physical, hence more specific than any particular mathematics. A recurring mathematical structure in physics is the Lie algebra su(2), which describes spin, isotopic spin associated with electrical charge, happens to be abstractly identical to the algebra of SO(3) since SU(2) is the universal covering group of SO(3), whose algebra is normally associated with classical and QM angular momentum operators in an E It occurs again in my FCCR(n) The su(2) algebra appears later below, but for now, begining at the begining, I construct a genuine algebra of sets, which act together, with a few possibly interesting mathematical remarks, and get to an algebra to Clifford algebra mapping as quantization centering on the power set, outline some Clifford algebra theory and its various relationships, and finally get to discussing the nature of any quantum set theory.

    Description
    It is well know that when one studies arbitrary subsets of the real numbers one runs into many pathologies (non-measurable sets) and independent problems (the Continuum Hypothesis). In Descriptive Set Theory we try to avoid these pathologies by concentrating on natural classes of well-behaved sets of reals, like Borel sets or projective sets (the smallest class of sets containing Borel sets and closed under projections from higher dimenional spaces). While this is a restricted class of sets it includes most of the sets that arise naturally in mathematical practice. Lately there have been many intersting connections with dynamical systems, through the study of orbit equivalence relations.
    The first half of the course will be devoted to developing the fundamental results and techniques of descriptive set theory. In the second half we will look at more recent developments. The exact topics covered will depend on the background and interest of the class.

    Abstract: Haim Judah has asked me to speak on the future of set theory, so, as the next millennium is coming, to speak on set theory in the next millennium. But we soon cut this down to set theory in the next century. Later on I thought I had better cut it down to dealing with the next decade, but I suspect I will speak on what I hope to try to prove next year, or worse - what I have done in the last year (or twenty). It seems I am not particularly suitable for such a lecture, as I have repeatedly preferred to try to prove another theorem rather than to prepare the lecture (or article); so why did I agree at all to such a doubtful endeavor? Well, under the hypothesis that I had some moral obligation to help Haim in the conference (and the proceedings) and you should not let a friend down, had I been given the choice to help with organizing the dormitories, writing a lengthy well written expository paper or risking making a fool of myself in such a lecture, I definitely prefer the last.

Below is the Preface from the book. Preface These notes for a graduate course in set theory are on their way to becoming a book. They originated as handwritten notes in a course at the University of Toronto given by Prof. William Weiss. Cynthia Church produced the first electronic copy in December 2002. James Talmage Adams produced the copy here in February 2005. Chapters 1 to 9 are close to final form. Chapters 10, 11, and 12 are quite readable, but should not be considered as a final draft. One more chapter will be added.

    Set Theory: Should You Believe? N J Wildberger School of Maths UNSW Sydney NSW 2052 Australia webpages: http://web.maths.unsw.edu.au/~norman "I protest against the use of infinite magnitude as something completed, which is never permissible in mathematics. Infinity is merely a way of speaking, the true meaning being a limit which certain ratios approach indefinitely close, while others are permitted to increase without restriction." (Gauss) "I don't know what predominates in Cantor's theory - philosophy or theology, but I am sure that there is no mathematics there." (Kronecker) "...classical logic was abstracted from the mathematics of finite sets and their subsets...Forgetful of this limited origin, one afterwards mistook that logic for something above and prior to all mathematics, and finally applied it, without justification, to the mathematics of infinite sets. This is the Fall and original sin of [Cantor's] set theory ..." (Weyl)
    Modern mathematics as religion
    Modern mathematics doesn't make complete sense . The unfortunate consequences include difficulty in deciding what to teach and how to teach it, many papers that are logically flawed, the challenge of recruiting young people to the subject, and an unfortunate teetering on the brink of irrelevance.

    Fuzzy Set Theory
    • Fuzzy set theory defines set membership as a possibility distribution The general rule for this can expressed as:
      where n some number of possibilities. This basically states that we can take n possible events and us f to generate as single possible outcome. This extends set membership since we could have varying definitions of, say, hot curries. One person might declare that only curries of Vindaloo strength or above are hot whilst another might say madras and above are hot. We could allow for these variations definition by allowing both possibilities in fuzzy definitions.
    • Once set membership has been redefined we can develop new logics based on combining of sets etc. and reason effectively.

    Infinity is for Children-and Mathematicians!
    How Big is Infinity?
    Most everyone is familiar with the infinity symbolthe one that looks like the number eight tipped over on its side. The infinite sometimes crops up in everyday speech as a superlative form of the word many . But how many is infinitely many? How far away is "from here to infinity"? How big is infinity? You can't count to infinity. Yet we are comfortable with the idea that there are infinitely many numbers to count with: no matter how big a number you might come up with, someone else can come up with a bigger one: that number plus oneor plus two, or times two. Or times itself. There simply is no biggest number. Is there? Is infinity a number? Is there anything bigger than infinity? How about infinity plus one? What's infinity plus infinity? What about infinity times infinity? Children to whom the concept of infinity is brand new, pose questions like this and don't usually get very satisfactory answers. For adults, these questions don't seem to have very much bearing on daily life, so their unsatisfactory answers don't seem to be a matter of concern. At the turn of the century, in Germany, the Russian-born mathematician Georg Cantor applied the tools of mathematical rigor and logical deduction to questions about infinity in search of satisfactory answers. His conclusions are paradoxical to our everyday experience, yet they are mathematically sound. The world of our everyday experience is finite. We can't exactly say where the boundary line is, but beyond the finite, in the realm of the

    About this Seminar
    Since their inception in 1979 the Linz Seminars on Fuzzy Sets have emphasized the development of mathematical aspects of fuzzy sets by bringing together researchers in fuzzy sets and established mathematicians whose work outside the fuzzy setting can provide direction for further research. The seminar is deliberately kept small and intimate so that informal critical discussion remains central. There are no parallel sessions and during the week there are several round tables to discuss open problems and promising directions for further work. Foundations of Lattice-Valued Mathematics with Applications to Algebra and Topology Accordingly, the topics of the Seminar will include but not be limited to:
    • Categorical and logical approaches to lattice valued algebraic structures, powerset theories, topological structures Lattice valued categories, equivalences, locales, orders, topologies Presheaf and sheaf theoretic approaches to lattice valued structures Programming semantics, semantic domains, topological systems
