Suppose A is an infinite set and B is countable and disjoint from A. Prove that the union A U B is equivalent to A by defining a bijection f: A ----> A U B. Thus, adding a countably infinite set to an infinite set does not increase its size.

Prove Cantor’s original result: for any nonempty set (whether finite or infinite), the cardinality of S is strictly less than that of its power set 2S . First show that there is a one-to-one (but not necessarily onto) map g from S to its power set. Next assume that there is a one-to-one and onto function f and show that this assumption leads to a contradiction by defining a new subset of S that cannot possibly be the image of...

Prove the statements (a) and (b) using a set element proof and using only the definitions of the set operations (set equality, subset, intersection, union, complement): (a) Suppose that A ⊆ B. Then for every set C, C\B ⊆ C\A. (b) For all sets A and B, it holds that A′ ∩(A∪B) = A′ ∩B. (c) Now prove the statement from part (b)
