Set Theory for the Working Mathematician

Klappentext Presents those methods of modern set theory most applicable to other areas of pure mathematics. Zusammenfassung This text concentrates on the typical methods of modern set theory: transfinite induction! Zorn's Lemma! the Continuum Hypothesis! Martin's Axiom! the Diamond Principle and elements of forcing. It supplies students and researchers with the tools most applicable to other areas of pure mathematics! such as abstract geometry! real analysis! topology! and algebra. Inhaltsverzeichnis Part I. Basics of Set Theory: 1. Axiomatic set theory; 2. Relations, functions and Cartesian product; 3. Natural, integer and real numbers; Part II. Fundamental Tools of Set Theory: 4. Well orderings and transfinite induction; 5. Cardinal numbers; Part III. The Power of Recursive Definitions: 6. Subsets of Rn; 7. Strange real functions; Part IV. When Induction is Too Short: 8. Martin's axiom; 9. Forcing; Part V. Appendices: A. Axioms of set theory; B. Comments on forcing method; C. Notation.
