  2. Cartesian product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_product

    Cartesian product of the sets {x,y,z} and {1,2,3}In mathematics, specifically set theory, the Cartesian product of two sets A and B, denoted A × B, is the set of all ordered pairs (a, b) where a is in A and b is in B. [1]

  3. Product (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In set theory, a Cartesian product is a mathematical operation which returns a set (or product set) from multiple sets. That is, for sets A and B, the Cartesian product A × B is the set of all ordered pairs (a, b) —where a ∈ A and b ∈ B. [5] The class of all things (of a given type) that have Cartesian products is called a Cartesian ...

  5. Ternary relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_relation

    Ternary relations may also be referred to as 3-adic, 3-ary, 3-dimensional, or 3-place. Just as a binary relation is formally defined as a set of pairs, i.e. a subset of the Cartesian product A × B of some sets A and B, so a ternary relation is a set of triples, forming a subset of the Cartesian product A × B × C of three sets A, B and C.

  6. 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.

    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 ...

  8. Ordered pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_pair

    The set of all ordered pairs whose first entry is in some set A and whose second entry is in some set B is called the Cartesian product of A and B, and written A × B. A binary relation between sets A and B is a subset of A × B. The (a, b) notation may be used for other purposes, most notably as denoting open intervals on the real number line ...
