It is a powerful tool for showing that sets have the same cardinality. Here are some examples. Example. Show that the open interval (0 1) and the closed
It is a good exercise to show that any open interval (a b) of real numbers has the same cardinality as (0
The next example shows that the intervals (0∞) and (0

Example: prove that L = {0 n. 1 n. :n ≥ 0} is not regular. Suppose for contradiction that some Sets A and B have the same cardinality if there is a one-to- ...

Nov 10 2022 The argument in Lemma 33.13.1 can be adapted to show that the open interval (0
(b) Show that an unbounded interval like (a∞) = {x : x>a} has the same cardinality as R as well. (c) Show that [0

7 may 2013 Proposition HW14.2: The set (01) has the same cardinality as (?1
Thus any open interval or real numbers has the same cardinality as (01). Proposition 7.1.1 then implies that any two open intervals of real numbers have the
1. 0. A. B f. Example 13.1 The sets A = {n ? Z : 0 ? n ? 5} and B = {n ? Z : ?5 ? n ? 0} have the same cardinality because there is a bijective
22 nov 2013 To prove the proposition we need to show that an onto function exists ... The interval (01) has the same cardinality as the interval.
24 jun 2017 that X is finite if X is either empty or there exists an integer n > 0 such that X has the same cardinality as the set {1...
5 sept 2019 For finite sets A and B they have the same cardinality if and only ... Proof. Suppose we can list all real numbers between 0 and 1 in a ...
10 mar 2016 uncountable. Proof: we need only show that [ab] and [0
We will prove that the open interval A = (01) and the open interval. B = (1
We proved the following statement: Theorem 1. The sets [01] and (0
Example Prove that (01) has the same cardinality as R+ = (0?) De?ne f : (01) ? (1?) by f(x) = 1 x Note that if 0 < x < 1 then 1 x > 1 Therefore f does map (01) to (1?) 0 1 f(x) = 1/x swaps these intervals I claim that f?1(x) = 1 x If x > 1 then 0 < 1 x < 1 so f?1 maps (1?) to (01) Moreover f f?1(x) = f 1 x
has the same cardinality as (0;1) A good way to proceed is to rst nd a 1-1 correspondence from (0;1) to (0;b a) and then another one from (0;b a) to (a;b) Thus any open interval or real numbers has the same cardinality as (0;1) Proposition 7 1 1 then implies that any two open intervals of real numbers have the same cardinality
We will prove that the open intervalA= (0;1) and the open interval = (1;4) have the same cardinality We thus want to construct a bijection betweenthese two sets The most obvious option would be to stretch by a factor of 3 andthen shift right by 1 So we de neg: (0;1)!(1;4) by the rule g(x) = 1 + 3x:
we showed that jZ j ? jNj 6? jR (01) 1) So we have a means of The sets N and Z have the same cardinality but R
Theorem: [0 1] = [0 2] Proof: Consider the function f: [0 1] ? [0 2] defned as f(x) = 2x We will prove that f is a bijection First we will show that f is a well-defned function Choose any x ? [0 1] This means that 0 ? x ? 1 so we know that 0 ? 2x ? 2 Consequently we see that 0 ? f(x) ? 2 so f(x) ? [0 2]
0;1; 1;2; 2;3; 3;4; 4;::: We can de nite a bijection from N to Z by sending 1 to 0 2 to 1 3 to 1 and so on sending the remaining natural numbers to the remaining integers in the list above consecutively Thus even though N is a proper subset of Z both of these sets have the same cardinalities!
