  2. Set-builder notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-builder_notation

    Set-builder notation can be used to describe a set that is defined by a predicate, that is, a logical formula that evaluates to true for an element of the set, and false otherwise. [2] In this form, set-builder notation has three parts: a variable, a colon or vertical bar separator, and a predicate. Thus there is a variable on the left of the ...

    2. In geometry and linear algebra, denotes the cross product. 3. In set theory and category theory, denotes the Cartesian product and the direct product. See also × in § Set theory. · 1. Denotes multiplication and is read as times; for example, 3 ⋅ 2. 2. In geometry and linear algebra, denotes the dot product. 3.

  5. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_(set_theory)

    The reason is as follows: The intersection of the collection is defined as the set (see set-builder notation) = {:,}. If M {\displaystyle M} is empty, there are no sets A {\displaystyle A} in M , {\displaystyle M,} so the question becomes "which x {\displaystyle x} 's satisfy the stated condition?"

    A set of polygons in an Euler diagram This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements.. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(linear_algebra)

    The kernel of this linear map is the set of solutions to the equation Ax = 0, where 0 is understood as the zero vector. The dimension of the kernel of A is called the nullity of A . In set-builder notation , N ⁡ ( A ) = Null ⁡ ( A ) = ker ⁡ ( A ) = { x ∈ K n ∣ A x = 0 } . {\displaystyle \operatorname {N} (A)=\operatorname {Null} (A ...

  8. Set theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_theory

    Set theory begins with a fundamental binary relation between an object o and a set A. If o is a member (or element) of A, the notation o ∈ A is used. A set is described by listing elements separated by commas, or by a characterizing property of its elements, within braces { }. [8]

  9. Naive set theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_set_theory

    This notation is called set-builder notation (or "set comprehension", particularly in the context of Functional programming). Some variants of set builder notation are: {x ∈ A | P(x)} denotes the set of all x that are already members of A such that the condition P holds for x.
