  2. Complement (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complement_(set_theory)

    If A is a set, then the absolute complement of A (or simply the complement of A) is the set of elements not in A (within a larger set that is implicitly defined). In other words, let U be a set that contains all the elements under study; if there is no need to mention U, either because it has been previously specified, or it is obvious and unique, then the absolute complement of A is the ...

  9. Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zermelo–Fraenkel_set_theory

    Von Neumann–Bernays–Gödel set theory (NBG) is a commonly used conservative extension of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory that does allow explicit treatment of proper classes. There are many equivalent formulations of the axioms of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory. Most of the axioms state the existence of particular sets defined from other sets.
