Prove that a disjoint union of any finite set and any countably infinite set is countably infinite. Proof: Suppose A is any finite set, B is any countably infinite set, and A and B are disjoint. By definition of disjoint, A ∩ B = ∅ Then h is one-to-one because f and g are one-to one and A ∩ B = 0. Further, h is onto because f and g are onto and given any element x in A ∪...

Determine whether each of these sets is finite, countably infinite, or uncountable. For those that are countably infinite, exhibit a one-to-one correspondence between the set of positive integers and that set. For those that are finite or uncountable, explain your reasoning. a. integers that are divisible by 7 or divisible by 10

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...

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.
