Transfinite set theory encompasses the rigorous study of infinite hierarchies, particularly those structured by ordinals and cardinals. This field has been instrumental in deepening our comprehension ...
Mathematical logic, set theory, lattices and universal algebra form an interconnected framework that underpins much of modern mathematics. At its heart, mathematical logic provides rigorous formal ...
This course is available on the MSc in Economics and Philosophy, MSc in Philosophy of Science and MSc in Philosophy of the Social Sciences. This course is available as an outside option to students on ...
The Journal of Symbolic Logic (JSL) was founded in 1936 and it has become the leading research journal in the field. It is issued quarterly. Volume 71, being published during 2006, will consist of ...
To determine the nature of infinity, mathematicians face a choice between two new logical axioms. What they decide could help shape the future of mathematical truth. In the course of exploring their ...
A Platonistic set theory with a universal set, CUSɩ, in the spirit of Alonzo Church's "Set Theory with a Universal Set," is presented; this theory uses a different sequence of restricted equivalence ...

Set theory is a mathematical abstract concerned with the grouping of sets of numbers that have commonality. For example, all even numbers make up a set, and all odd numbers comprise a set. All numbers ...
I have noticed lately a curious term that appears repeatedly now in political discussions and in the media. It is a sort of leftist battle cry. The pervasive term is “intersectionality.” This term is ...
