Infinity-Borel Set

Infinity-Borel Set

In set theory, a subset of a Polish space is ∞-Borel if it can be obtained by starting with the open subsets of, and transfinitely iterating the operations of complementation and wellordered union. Note that the set of ∞-Borel sets may not actually be closed under wellordered union; see below.

Famous quotes containing the word set:

    “There are twenty ways of going to a point, and one is the shortest; but set out at once on one. A man who has that presence of mind which can bring to him on the instant all he knows, is worth for action a dozen men who know as much, but can only bring it to light slowly.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
