  Axiom of pairing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In axiomatic set theory and the branches of logic, mathematics, and computer science that use it, the axiom of pairing is one of the axioms of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory.
The axiom of pairing is generally considered uncontroversial, and it or an equivalent appears in just about any alternative axiomatization of set theory.
Nevertheless, in the standard formulation of the Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, the axiom of pairing follows from the axiom of power set and the schema of replacement, thus it is sometimes omitted.

 Ordered pair   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
An ordered pair is a collection of two objects such that one can be distinguished as the first element and the other as the second element.
The set of all ordered pairs whose first element is in some set X and second element in some set Y is called the Cartesian product of X and Y, and written X × Y.
In the usual ZF formulation of set theory including the axiom of regularity, ordered pairs (a, b) can also be defined as the set {a, {a, b}}.

 axiom of choice
An axiom in set theory that is one of the most controversial axioms in mathematics; it was formulated in 1904 by the German mathematician Ernst Zermelo (1871-1953) and, at first, seems obvious and trivial.
His point is that the two socks in a pair are identical in appearance, so, to pick one of them, we have to make an arbitrary choice.
Thus there are no contradictions in choosing to reject it; among the alternatives are to adopt a contradictory axiom or to use a completely different framework for mathematics, such as category theory.

Ordered triples and n-tuples (ordered lists of n terms) are defined recursively from this definition: an ordered triple (a,b,c) can be defined as (a, (b,c)): two nested pairs.
In pure set theory, where there are only sets, ordered pairs (a, b) can be defined as the set { {a}, {a, b} }.

 The Annotated Axioms
Axiom 4 should read something like "Space is a separation of existences, beingnesses and identities held apart with non-existences, non-beingnesses and non-identities." The original space at the highest level I've spotted is separation between selves.
So this axiom is partially true, but ignores the motion by/through/via postulated fields (which still isn't correct but I have no idea how to describe the actuality in words).
In Axiom 19 he is describing his observation of the fact that if you view as-is the alteration (significance or meaning, which is on a scale of values, read Dennis Stephens on value and importance) you will obtain a partial relief.

The axiom that expresses this is as follows: Total-Order() --> (A t1,t2)[Instant(t1) & Instant(t2) --> [before(t1,t2) v t1 = t2 v before(t2,t1)]] This eliminates models of time with branching futures and other conflations of time and possibility or limited knowledge.
The statements of the axioms have been complicated modestly in order to localize the difference between the two approaches to the choice between two pairs of simple existence axioms, which are themselves conditioned on 0-argument propositions indicating the choice of that option.
The axiom for this is as follows, where the 0-argument predicate indicating the exercising of this option is "Dense()": Dense() --> (A t1,t2)[Instant(t1) & Instant(t2) & before(t1,t2) --> (E t)[Instant(t) & before(t1,t) & before(t,t2)]] This is weaker than the mathematical property of continuity, which we will not axiomatize here.

Axiom 11: A subscale of the 12-note chromatic scale is the 7-note major scale, formed by steps of {2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1} from the chromatic scale.
This axiom is largely arbitrary, but it is important to note that the major scale contains all of the frequencies of the chromatic scale that are very close to small whole-number ratios, except for the 7:4 ratio, which was the furthest away from the ideal ratio anyway.
By Axiom C1, all the notes of a chord are in the major scale with respect to the key.

 Relevance of the Axiom of Choice
The Axiom of Choice (AC) is one of the most discussed axioms of mathematics, perhaps second only to Euclid's parallel postulate.
The axioms of set theory provide a foundation for modern mathematics in the same way that Euclid's five postulates provided a foundation for Euclidean geometry, and the questions surrounding AC are the same as the questions that surrounded Euclid's Parallel Postulate:
For many sets, including any finite set, the first six axioms of set theory (abbreviated ZF) are enough to guarantee the existence of a choice function but there do exist sets for which AC is required to show the existence of a choice function.

 Axiom of Choice   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Axiom of Choice (AC) was formulated about a century ago, and it was controversial for a few of decades after that; it may be considered the last great controversy of mathematics.
In effect, when we accept the Axiom of Choice, this means we are agreeing to the convention that we shall permit ourselves to use a choice function f in proofs, as though it "exists" in some sense, even though we cannot give an explicit example of it or an explicit algorithm for it.
Consequences of the Axiom of Choice is a book by Paul Howard and Jean E. Rubin that was published by the American Mathematical Society in 1998.
