Constructive set theory — is an approach to mathematical constructivism following the program of axiomatic set theory. That is, it uses the usual first order language of classical set theory, and although of course the logic is constructive, there is no explicit use of… … Wikipedia
Positive set theory — In mathematical logic, positive set theory is the name for a class of alternative set theories in which the axiom of comprehension* {x mid phi} exists holds for at least the positive formulas phi (the smallest class of formulas containing atomic… … Wikipedia
Bounded set — In mathematical analysis and related areas of mathematics, a set is called bounded, if it is, in a certain sense, of finite size. Conversely a set which is not bounded is called unbounded. Definition A set S of real numbers is called bounded from … Wikipedia
Kripke–Platek set theory with urelements — The Kripke–Platek set theory with urelements (KPU) is an axiom system for set theory with urelements that is considerably weaker than the familiar system ZF. PreliminariesThe usual way of stating the axioms presumes a two sorted first order… … Wikipedia
Bounded quantifier — In the study of formal theories in mathematical logic, bounded quantifiers are often added to a language. These are two quantifiers in addition to forall and exists. They are motivated by the fact that determining whether a sentence with only… … Wikipedia
Bounded mean oscillation — In harmonic analysis, a function of bounded mean oscillation, also known as a BMO function, is a real valued function whose mean oscillation is bounded (finite). The space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO), is a function space that,… … Wikipedia
Bounded operator — In functional analysis, a branch of mathematics, a bounded linear operator is a linear transformation L between normed vector spaces X and Y for which the ratio of the norm of L(v) to that of v is bounded by the same number, over all non zero… … Wikipedia
Bounded variation — In mathematical analysis, a function of bounded variation refers to a real valued function whose total variation is bounded (finite): the graph of a function having this property is well behaved in a precise sense. For a continuous function of a… … Wikipedia
Bounded complete poset — In the mathematical field of order theory, a partially ordered set is bounded complete if all of its subsets which have some upper bound also have a least upper bound. Such a partial order can also be called consistently complete, since any upper … Wikipedia
Theory of the firm — The theory of the firm consists of a number of economic theories that describe the nature of the firm, company, or corporation, including its existence, behavior, structure, and relationship to the market.[1] Contents 1 Overview 2 Background … Wikipedia
