 Axiom of dependent choice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the axiom of dependent choice, denoted DC, is a weak form of the axiom of choice which is still sufficient to develop most of real analysis.
Unlike the full axiom of choice (AC), DC is insufficient to prove (given ZF) that there is a nonmeasurable set of reals, or that there is a set of reals without the property of Baire or without the perfect set property.
DC is equivalent to the statement that every (nonempty) pruned tree has a branch.

 Perfect numbers
It is not known when perfect numbers were first studied and indeed the first studies may go back to the earliest times when numbers first aroused curiosity.
Perfect numbers were studied by Pythagoras and his followers, more for their mystical properties than for their number theoretic properties.
Today the usual definition of a perfect number is in terms of its divisors, but early definitions were in terms of the 'aliquot parts' of a number.

 Perfect Subset Property for co-analytic sets in ZF\P
Perfect Subset Property for co-analytic sets in ZF\P
A perfect set is the set of all paths through a perfect tree, and can be coded by such perfect tree.
The constructible sets under the membership relation form a model L of ZFC\P. Suppose that every set is countable and perfect subset property holds for co-analytic sets.

 A Large ... Set, Absolute for Set Forcings (ResearchIndex)
We show how to obtain, by class-forcing over L, a set of reals X which is large in L(X) and has a \Pi 1 2 definiiton valid in all set-generic extensions of L(X).
As a consequence we show that it is consistent for the perfect set property to hold for \Sigma 1 2 sets yet fail for some \Pi 1 2 set.
Also it is consistent for the perfect set property to hold for \Sigma 1 2 sets and for there to be a long \Pi 1 2 well ordering.

It may either be the usual basic introduction to axiomatic set theory (I) or a course in descriptive set theory (II).
In particular, analyzes the structure of definable sets beginning with the hierarchy of Borel sets determined by beginning with the open sets and then iterating complementation and countable union.
Typical issues considered are uniformization (of relations by functions of the same class in the hierarchy), measurability, perfect set property (which uncountable sets must conation perfect subsets) and the property of Baire (differing from an open set by a meager set).

As it is fairly typical in set theory that the first proof of a result uses large cardinals since it gives you more room to work with so to speak, originally people assumed that the hypothesis of IC could be avoided.

A stronger property, in the sense that for some models of ZFC a class of sets can satisfy CH but not satisfy what I'm about to describe, is that every uncountable set in the collection contains a nonempty perfect subset.
One could argue that Cantor showed open sets satisfy CH in 1873-74 when he introduced cardinality, since it is easy to see that every open interval has the same cardinality as the reals.
Souslin (1916, I think) showed that the CA sets are either countable, have cardinality aleph_1, or have cardinality c.

Set Theory (Studies in Logic and the Foundations of Mathematics) by Kenneth Kunen
This introduction to modern set theory covers all aspects of its two main general areas: classical set theory including large cardinals, infinitary combinatorics, desriptive set theory, and independence proofs starting with Goedel's proof around 1938 followed by Cohen's proof in 1963, whereby Cohen's method of forcing probably had a greater influence on mathematics.
Intuitively, a set is a collection of all elements that satisfy a certain given property.

The geography of stick-and-ball properties runs from Gloucestershire through to Berkshire and the M4 corridor down to Sussex, according to William Duckworth-Chad of Savills.
Patrons at every level usually prefer to live close to their club and, since most polo clubs are situated in the south of England, a base in the Home Counties is a must.
Availability also plays a part because "the not-so-grand properties come up a little bit more often than first-class establishments, some of which are sold privately".

Allegheny County unveiled revised 2006 property assessment values on its Web site yesterday afternoon, and it appeared that most homeowners received only modest increases.
