Axiomatic set theory
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Elementary set theory can be studied informally and intuitively, and so can be taught in primary schools using, say, Venn diagrams. The intuitive approach silently assumes that all objects in the universe of discourse satisfying any defining condition form a set. This assumption gives rise to antinomies, the simplest and best known of which being Russell's paradox. Axiomatic set theory was originally devised to rid set theory of such antinomies [3] .

Alternative Axiomatic Characterizations of the Grey Shapley Value
The Shapley value, one of the most common solution concepts of cooperative game theory is defined and axiomatically characterized in different game-theoretic models. Certainly, the Shapley value can be used in interesting sharing cost/reward problems in the Operations Research area such as connection, routing, scheduling, production and inventory situations. In this paper, we focus on the Shapl...
متن کاملThe Balance Sheet and the Assets-Claims on Assets Relationship in the Axiomatic Method
The purpose of this study is to analyze the set structure of the balance sheet and assets-claims on assets relationship, considering the dual concept of monetary units, the axiomatic theory and accountingspecific axioms. The structure of the balance sheet and assets-claims on assets relationship are examined using a rationalistic, analytical and deductive method; this method uses the axiomatic ...
متن کاملOn Gödel’s Second Incompleteness Theorem
Gödel’s Second Incompleteness Theorem states that no sufficiently strong consistent mathematical theory can prove its own consistency. In [1] this is proved for every axiomatic theory extending the Peano Arithmetic. For axiomatic set theory a simpler proof was given in [2] using the fact that in set theory, consistency of a set of axioms is equivalent to the existence of a model. In this note w...
متن کاملAxiomatic Set Theories and Common Sense
Various axiomatic set theories (ZF, NBG, NF, and KPU) are studied with a critical eye. The basic mathematical and philosophical reasons behind their axioms are given, as well as their review from the commonsense point of view. An introduction to a \commonsense set theory" is attempted at the end.
متن کاملAxiomatic Characterizations of Information Measures
Axiomatic characterizations of Shannon entropy, Kullback I-divergence, and some generalized information measures are surveyed. Three directions are treated: (A) Characterization of functions of probability distributions suitable as information measures. (B) Characterization of set functions on the subsets of {1, . . . , N} representable by joint entropies of components of an N -dimensional rand...
متن کاملA Brief Introduction to Zfc
We present a basic axiomatic development of Zermelo-Fraenkel and Choice set theory, commonly abbreviated ZFC. This paper is aimed in particular at students of mathematics who are familiar with set theory from a “naive” perspective, and are interested in the underlying axiomatic development. We will quickly review some basic concepts of set theory, before focusing on the set theoretic definition...
