2. Set (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(mathematics)

   A set of polygons in an Euler diagram This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements.. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other ...

3. Class (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

   Within set theory, many collections of sets turn out to be proper classes. Examples include the class of all sets (the universal class), the class of all ordinal numbers, and the class of all cardinal numbers. One way to prove that a class is proper is to place it in bijection with the class of all ordinal numbers.

4. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

   This last example, an intersection of countably many sets, is actually very common; for an example, see the article on σ-algebras. Nullary intersection [ edit ]

5. Set theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_theory

   Set theory is the branch of mathematical logic that studies sets, which can be informally described as collections of objects.Although objects of any kind can be collected into a set, set theory – as a branch of mathematics – is mostly concerned with those that are relevant to mathematics as a whole.

6. Category of sets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_of_sets

   Set is the prototype of a concrete category; other categories are concrete if they are "built on" Set in some well-defined way. Every two-element set serves as a subobject classifier in Set. The power object of a set A is given by its power set, and the exponential object of the sets A and B is given by the set of all functions from A to B.

7. List of set identities and relations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_identities_and...

   This article lists mathematical properties and laws of sets, involving the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, and complementation and the relations of set equality and set inclusion. It also provides systematic procedures for evaluating expressions, and performing calculations, involving these operations and relations.
