It is conjectured that it also implies that all sets of reals are Ramsey. Discussed one example: CH is equivalent to. V = L also implies the generalized continuum hypothesis? But I've only seen those discussed in the context of the set theory of the real line. The commonly accepted standard foundation of mathematics today is a material set theory, ZFC or Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory with the axiom of choice. More information about: Paul Cohen · Continuum Hypothesis. In 1963, he proved that the axiom of choice and the continuum hypothesis are independent of the other axioms of set theory. Similarly, research in set theory has shown that CH is provably equivalent to lower-complexity statements (i.e. 999, Gerbert was elected Pope Sylvester II. Since our universe (as far as we understand it) doesn't have any halting oracles, it could some day be relegated to Plato's Math Heaven (where it can sit around with the Continuum Hypothesis). You may want to ask him about them. It was first set forth by Zermelo in 1904 and This conjecture is famously known as the Continuum Hypothesis (CH) and was the first of 23 problems in David Hilbert's famous 1900 list of open problems in mathematics. €That's a strange thought considering the importance a positive or . The axiom of choice (AC) is an axiom of set theory that says, informally, that for any collection of bins, each containing at least one element, it's possible to make a selection of at least one element from each bin. This is the Handbook of Set Theory, Foreman, Kanamori, eds., Springer, 2010.) The bulk of these results appears in notes by James Cummings. Let's see: $mathsf{AD}$ implies that all sets of reals are Lebesgue measurable, have the Baire property, and the perfect set property (so, a version of the continuum hypothesis holds). The existence of a non-even function of order 1 is equivalent to the Continuum Hypothesis (i.e., the statement that 2^{aleph_0} = aleph_1 ).
