Intersection (set theory)

Index Intersection (set theory)

In mathematics, the intersection A ∩ B of two sets A and B is the set that contains all elements of A that also belong to B (or equivalently, all elements of B that also belong to A), but no other elements. [1]

Axiom schema of replacement

In set theory, the axiom schema of replacement is a schema of axioms in Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory (ZF) that asserts that the image of any set under any definable mapping is also a set.

Cardinality

In mathematics, the cardinality of a set is a measure of the "number of elements of the set".

Commutative property

In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the order of the operands does not change the result.

Complement (set theory)

In set theory, the complement of a set refers to elements not in.

De Morgan's laws

In propositional logic and boolean algebra, De Morgan's laws are a pair of transformation rules that are both valid rules of inference.

Empty set

In mathematics, and more specifically set theory, the empty set or null set is the unique set having no elements; its size or cardinality (count of elements in a set) is zero.

Identity element

In mathematics, an identity element or neutral element is a special type of element of a set with respect to a binary operation on that set, which leaves other elements unchanged when combined with them.

If and only if

In logic and related fields such as mathematics and philosophy, if and only if (shortened iff) is a biconditional logical connective between statements.

Infinite product

In mathematics, for a sequence of complex numbers a1, a2, a3,...

Inhabited set

In constructive mathematics, a set A is inhabited if there exists an element a\in A. In classical mathematics, this is the same as the set being nonempty; however, this equivalence is not valid in intuitionistic logic.

Intersection graph

In the mathematical area of graph theory, an intersection graph is a graph that represents the pattern of intersections of a family of sets.

Iterated binary operation

In mathematics, an iterated binary operation is an extension of a binary operation on a set S to a function on finite sequences of elements of S through repeated application.
