What are the Axioms of Natural Numbers?
For s on N: One to One, Onto, s(x) = s(y), Only one “1” in N, and it is not the successor of any number, If given T, which contains 1 and s(x) is in T, then T = N.
True of False? A = {A} for object A?
False. {A} is the set. A is the object
Given a Subset A, what can we assume about A?
A is a subset of itself. {0} is a subset. Two Sets are identical if they have the same members . All A is in B and All B is in A. Subsets of A is marked as 2^A. B is in 2^A if and only if B is in A.
Define a Subset
For each object x in A. It is true that x is in B. Thus A is a subset of B. A ‘C’ B.
A Symbol - ‘C’ - B
A is contained in B
T/F (a,b) ‘C’ [a,b] ‘C’ R
True. Because the open interval is a subset of the closed interval
A ‘E’ 2^A
True, Because A ‘C’ A
A ‘C’ (is a subset of) 2^A
False, Because each x in A must be in 2^A and an element of a is not a subset of A.
{A} ‘C’ 2^A is True
{O} ‘E’ 2^A
True, {0} is a subset of A.
{0} ‘C’ (is a subset of) 2^A
True, {0} is a subset of A
There are no members in {0}
False, 0 is a memeber
Intersection vs. Union
n vs U and intersections is the elements they share, while Union is elements in either A or B for A U B.
Complement of S, A
All Elements in S that are not in A. S/A or S - A
Demorgan’s Laws
c(A U B) = c(A) n c(B)
c(A n B) = c(A) U c(B)
c = compliment
A is a subset of B iff, A U B = B
True. All A are in B, thus A subset of B
A is a subset of B iff, A n B = A
True, The intersection of A,B being A means the two sets share all A. Thus A is a subset of B.
A is a subset of C(B) (compliment of B), iff A n B = {0}
True, So A and B share no elements between them, thus A must be in the elements that are not in B.
Compliment C(A) is a subset of B iff, A U B = S. We know A is a subset of S and B is a subset of S. S is universe
If x is not in A, then x is in B and since the A U B is the universe it must be in B. Therefore True
A Subset of B iff C(B) Subset C(A)
True, Because if all elements not in B are elements not in A, then the elements in complements of each of these complements is the same. use the C(C(A)) = A fact.
Bijection, Injection, Surjection
Bijection = One-to-One & Onto, Surjection = Onto, Injection = One-to-One.
Define a Metric Space
Metric Space is a Set of numbers and a prescribed quantitative measure of the degree of closeness of pairs of points in this space. A set of numbers with a distance function.
4 Properties of Metric Spaces
- Distance >= 0
- Distance(x,y) = 0 iff x = y
- Distance(x,y) = Distance(y,x)
- Distance(x,y) <= Distance(x,z) + Distance(y,z)
What is Compactness?
If every sequence in S has a subsequence that converges to an element again contained in S. A Set is compact only if it is closed and bounded.
What is the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem?
Every bounded sequence of Real Numbers has a convergent subsequence. If X is a closed Bounded subset of R, then every sequence in X has a subsequence that converges to a point in X.
