  2. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

    In set theory, the intersection of two sets and , denoted by , [1] is the set containing all elements of that also belong to or equivalently, all elements of that also belong to . [2] Notation and terminology

  3. 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.

  4. Algebra of sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra_of_sets

    The algebra of sets is the set-theoretic analogue of the algebra of numbers. Just as arithmetic addition and multiplication are associative and commutative, so are set union and intersection; just as the arithmetic relation "less than or equal" is reflexive, antisymmetric and transitive, so is the set relation of "subset".

  5. Venn diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram

    The combined region of the two sets is called their union, denoted by A ∪ B, where A is the orange circle and B the blue. The union in this case contains all living creatures that either are two-legged or can fly (or both). The region included in both A and B, where the two sets overlap, is called the intersection of A and B, denoted by A ∩ B.

  6. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion–exclusion...

    The double-counted elements are those in the intersection of the two sets and the count is corrected by subtracting the size of the intersection. The inclusion-exclusion principle, being a generalization of the two-set case, is perhaps more clearly seen in the case of three sets, which for the sets A, B and C is given by

  7. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

    Intersection (set theory) – Set of elements common to all of some sets; Iterated binary operation – Repeated application of an operation to a sequence; List of set identities and relations – Equalities for combinations of sets; Naive set theory – Informal set theories; Symmetric difference – Elements in exactly one of two sets

  8. Dykstra's projection algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dykstra's_projection_algorithm

    Dykstra's algorithm is a method that computes a point in the intersection of convex sets, and is a variant of the alternating projection method (also called the projections onto convex sets method). In its simplest form, the method finds a point in the intersection of two convex sets by iteratively projecting onto each of the convex set; it ...

  9. Cartesian product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_product

    An important special case is when the index set is , the natural numbers: this Cartesian product is the set of all infinite sequences with the i-th term in its corresponding set X i. For example, each element of ∏ n = 1 ∞ R = R × R × ⋯ {\displaystyle \prod _{n=1}^{\infty }\mathbb {R} =\mathbb {R} \times \mathbb {R} \times \cdots } can ...
