Q: Rational Numbers
R: Real Numbers
C: Complex Numbers
Definitions
Cardinality: The cardinality of a set is equal to the number of
elements.
Injective/One-To-One: A function such that each element of the
codomain is mapped by at most one element of the domain.
Surjective/Correspondence: A function such that each element of
the codomain is mapped by at least one element of the domain.
Bijective: A one-to-one correspondence.
Countable Set: A set such that it is possible to create a
bijection with some subset of the natural numbers.
Theorems
Theorem 1. The set of rational numbers is countable.
Theorem 2. The set of real numbers is not countable.
Theorem 3. R^2 and R have the same cardinality.
Theorem 4. If there exist injective functions F: A->B and G:
B->A, then there exists a bijection between A and B.
