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:

    “She leet no morsel from hir lippes falle,
    Ne wette hir fyngres in hir sauce depe.
    Wel koude she carie a morsel and wel kepe
    That no drope ne fille upon hire brest.
    In curteisie was set ful muchel hir lest.”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
