Definitions of finiteness based on order properties

Omar De la Cruz, Damir D. Dzhafarov, Eric J. Hall (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A definition of finiteness is a set-theoretical property of a set that, if the Axiom of Choice (AC) is assumed, is equivalent to stating that the set is finite; several such definitions have been studied over the years. In this article we introduce a framework for generating definitions of finiteness in a systematical way: basic definitions are obtained from properties of certain classes of binary relations, and further definitions are obtained from the basic ones by closing them under subsets...

Dense orderings, partitions and weak forms of choice

Carlos González (1995)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We investigate the relative consistency and independence of statements which imply the existence of various kinds of dense orders, including dense linear orders. We study as well the relationship between these statements and others involving partition properties. Since we work in ZF (i.e. without the Axiom of Choice), we also analyze the role that some weaker forms of AC play in this context

Éléments pour l'étude de relations localement définies («infra-relations»). Infra-ordres et relation ternaire d'intermédiarité

H. Durup (1970)

Mathématiques et Sciences Humaines

Dans les sciences de la nature, et en particulier dans les sciences du comportement, on rencontre fréquemment des relations caractérisées par des propriétés locales. Une famille très vaste de telles relations rassemble celles qui sont définies uniquement par des propriétés portant sur les ensembles d'éléments liés à un même élément, soit par la relation («points vus d'un même point»), soit par son inverse («points d'où l'on voit un même point»). A tout type de relation correspondent ainsi plusieurs...

Fuzzy relation equation under a class of triangular norms: A survey and new results.

Antonio Di Nola, Witold Pedrycz, Salvatore Sessa, Wang Pei Zhuang (1984)

Stochastica

By substituting the classical lattice operator min of the unit real interval with a triangular norm of Schweizer and Sklar, the usual fuzzy relational equations theory of Sanchez can be generalized to wider theory of fuzzy equations. Considering a remarkable class of triangular norms, for such type of equations defined on finite sets, we characterize the upper an lower solutions.We also characterize the solutions posessing a minimal fuzziness measure of Yager valued with respect to a triangular...

Generalized projections of Borel and analytic sets

Marek Balcerzak (1996)

Colloquium Mathematicae

For a σ-ideal I of sets in a Polish space X and for A ⊆ X 2 , we consider the generalized projection (A) of A given by (A) = x ∈ X: Ax ∉ I, where A x =y ∈ X: 〈x,y〉∈ A. We study the behaviour of with respect to Borel and analytic sets in the case when I is a 2 0 -supported σ-ideal. In particular, we give an alternative proof of the recent result of Kechris showing that [ 1 1 ( X 2 ) ] = 1 1 ( X ) for a wide class of 2 0 -supported σ-ideals.
