2. Disjoint sets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint_sets

   Two disjoint sets. In set theory in mathematics and formal logic, two sets are said to be disjoint sets if they have no element in common. Equivalently, two disjoint sets are sets whose intersection is the empty set. [1] For example, {1, 2, 3} and {4, 5, 6} are disjoint sets, while {1, 2, 3} and {3, 4, 5} are not disjoint. A collection of two ...

3. Disjoint union - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint_union

   In mathematics, the disjoint union (or discriminated union) of the sets A and B is the set formed from the elements of A and B labelled (indexed) with the name of the set from which they come. So, an element belonging to both A and B appears twice in the disjoint union, with two different labels.

   In constructive mathematics, "not empty" and "inhabited" are not equivalent: every inhabited set is not empty but the converse is not always guaranteed; that is, in constructive mathematics, a set that is not empty (where by definition, "is empty" means that the statement () is true) might not have an inhabitant (which is an such that ).

5. Partition of a set - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_a_set

   Each set of elements has a least upper bound (their "join") and a greatest lower bound (their "meet"), so that it forms a lattice, and more specifically (for partitions of a finite set) it is a geometric and supersolvable lattice. [6] [7] The partition lattice of a 4-element set has 15 elements and is depicted in the Hasse diagram on the left.

6. 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 ...

7. Connected space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connected_space

   Each ellipse is a connected set, but the union is not connected, since it can be partitioned to two disjoint open sets and . This means that, if the union X {\displaystyle X} is disconnected, then the collection { X i } {\displaystyle \{X_{i}\}} can be partitioned to two sub-collections, such that the unions of the sub-collections are disjoint ...

8. Separated sets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separated_sets

   A most basic way in which two sets can be separated is if they are disjoint, that is, if their intersection is the empty set. This property has nothing to do with topology as such, but only set theory. Each of the following properties is stricter than disjointness, incorporating some topological information.

9. Symmetric difference - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_difference

   In mathematics, the symmetric difference of two sets, also known as the disjunctive union and set sum, is the set of elements which are in either of the sets, but not in their intersection. For example, the symmetric difference of the sets { 1 , 2 , 3 } {\displaystyle \{1,2,3\}} and { 3 , 4 } {\displaystyle \{3,4\}} is { 1 , 2 , 4 ...
