  2. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)

    The union of two intervals is an interval if and only if they have a non-empty intersection or an open end-point of one interval is a closed end-point of the other, for example (,) [,] = (,]. If R {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} } is viewed as a metric space , its open balls are the open bounded intervals ( c + r , c − r ) , and its closed balls ...

  3. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, the union of three sets A, B, and C contains all elements of A, all elements of B, and all elements of C, and nothing else. Thus, x is an element of A ∪ B ∪ C if and only if x is in at least one of A, B, and C. A finite union is the union of a finite number of sets; the phrase does not imply that the union set is a finite set ...

  4. List of set identities and relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_identities_and...

    This article lists mathematical properties and laws of sets, involving the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, and complementation and the relations of set equality and set inclusion. It also provides systematic procedures for evaluating expressions, and performing calculations, involving these operations and relations.

    [2] [3] Now consider the space which consists of the union of the two open intervals (,) and (,) of . The topology on is inherited as the subspace topology from the ordinary topology on the real line.

  6. Klee's measure problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klee's_measure_problem

    Bentley's algorithm is now also known to be optimal (in the 2-dimensional case), and is used in computer graphics, among other areas. These two problems are the 1- and 2-dimensional cases of a more general question: given a collection of n d-dimensional rectangular ranges, compute the measure of their union. This general problem is Klee's ...

  7. Connected space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connected_space

    The closed interval [,) in the standard subspace topology is connected; although it can, for example, be written as the union of [,) and [,), the second set is not open in the chosen topology of [,). The union of [ 0 , 1 ) {\displaystyle [0,1)} and ( 1 , 2 ] {\displaystyle (1,2]} is disconnected; both of these intervals are open in the standard ...

  8. Open set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_set

    The red disk represents the set of points (x, y) satisfying x 2 + y 2 < r 2. The red set is an open set, the blue set is its boundary set, and the union of the red and blue sets is a closed set . In mathematics , an open set is a generalization of an open interval in the real line .

  9. Ring of sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_of_sets

    On the real line R, the family of sets consisting of the empty set and all finite unions of half-open intervals of the form (a, b], with a, b ∈ R is a ring in the measure-theoretic sense. If T is any transformation defined on a space, then the sets that are mapped into themselves by T are closed under both unions and intersections. [1]
