  1. place prominent in human culture. But even more, Set Theory is the milieu in which mathematics takes place today. As such, it is expected to provide a firm foundation for the rest of mathematics. And it does—up to a point; we will prove theorems shedding light on this issue. Because the fundamentals of Set Theory are known to all mathemati-

    Basic Set Theory. A set is a Many that allows itself to be thought of as a One. - Georg Cantor This chapter introduces set theory, mathematical in- duction, and formalizes the notion of mathematical functions. The material is mostly elementary. For those of you new to abstract mathematics elementary does not mean simple (though much of the ...

  4. 1 THE BACKGROUND OF SET THEORY Although set theory is recognized to be the cornerstone of the “new” mathematics, there is nothing essentially new in the intuitive idea of a set. From the earliest times, mathematicians have been led to consider sets of objects of one kind or another, and the elementary notions of modern set theory are

    set is a collection of objects, called its elements. We write x 2 A to mean that x is an element of a set A, we also say that x belongs to A or that x is in If A and B are sets, we say that B is a subset of A if every element of B is an element of A. In this case we also say that A. Two sets are considered equal i A B and B A. contains B, and we wr...

  6. 1. Basic Concepts of Set Theory. 1.1. Sets and elements Set theory is a basis of modern mathematics, and notions of set theory are used in all formal descriptions. The notion of set is taken as “undefined”, “primitive”, or “basic”, so we don’t try to define what a set is, but we can give an informal description, describe
