In set theory, the axiom of extensionality states that two sets are equal if and only if they contain the same elements. In mathematics formalized in set theory, it is common to identify relations—and, most importantly, functions —with their extension as stated above, so that it is impossible for two relations or functions with the same ...
The axiom of extensionality, [1] [2] also called the axiom of extent, [3] [4] is an axiom used in many forms of axiomatic set theory, such as Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory. [5] [6] The axiom defines what a set is. [1] Informally, the axiom means that the two sets A and B are equal if and only if A and B have the same members.
Musical set theory is better regarded as an application of combinatorics to music theory than as a branch of mathematical set theory. Its main connection to mathematical set theory is the use of the vocabulary of set theory to talk about finite sets.
The axioms of Zermelo set theory are stated for objects, some of which (but not necessarily all) are sets, and the remaining objects are urelements and not sets. Zermelo's language implicitly includes a membership relation ∈, an equality relation = (if it is not included in the underlying logic), and a unary predicate saying whether an object is a set.
After months of speculating that right-hand man James Bender or even ex-husband Ant Anstead would join, The Flip Off premiere revealed that Haack has a team rallying behind her. Here's what we know.
A set (pitch set, pitch-class set, set class, set form, set genus, pitch collection) in music theory, as in mathematics and general parlance, is a collection of objects. In musical contexts the term is traditionally applied most often to collections of pitches or pitch-classes , but theorists have extended its use to other types of musical ...
Planning for retirement is easier in some ways for married couples than it is for single adults. They have a partner who can help them save for the future and share the burden of household tasks.
Police have arrested a suspect in the unsolved murder of a Honolulu teenager, whose death rocked the high school where her body was discovered almost five decades ago. They said the man arrested ...
