Mathematics is based on a foundation of axioms, or assumptions. One of the most important and widely-used set of axioms is called Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with the Axiom of Choice, or ZFC. These axioms define what a set is, which are fundamental objects in mathematics. And the Axiom of Choice is arguably one of the most important and interesting axioms of ZFC. But what does it really say? And how is it used? This video dives deep into the formal definition of the Axiom of Choice, as well as its important equivalences which have their own fascinating applications in various branches of mathematics. Furthermore, we look into the controversy behind AC, and why it has garnered much discussion throughout its mathematical history.

One thing that is quite important but often skimmed over is that axioms are not meant to be "obviously true". They are true within the framework of a theory, they are the "ifs" to the "thens" the theory shows. A theory does not assert them, it *requires* them. We needed to abandon this particular mindset that there is a single universal "mathematical truth" to discover so many new worlds, from complex numbers or infinite cardinalities to non-Euclidean geometry. If you find a situation where the axioms are actually true (like the real world), then you can happily apply the theory, but if not, it is equally valid to use it in a "what if" way.

To understand why the axiom of choice is controversial, consider the hat-puzzle of the last decade. An infinite list of prisoners have a hat placed on their head. Each prisoner can see all the others, and has to guess the color on their own head. The prisoners "win" if all but finitely many guess correctly. The axiom of choice on the reals allows the prisoners to "win". This is incompatible with the idea that each hat choice is indepedendent. So the axiom of choice is restricting the form of power-sets to be in some sense "correlated" or "determined", and this is made precise by defining the Godel model "L", where each infinite subset is determined by a rule from a pre-existing ordinal.

@@Happy_Abe It depends on how much logic you are willing to learn. The "cheap and easy" fix is to assert that every subset of R is Lebesgue measurable, this is implied by things like the axiom of determinacy, so you can go ahead and assume that. That's good enough to restore intuitions for R, but then you get counterintuitive propositions about maps into R at higher levels of the set theoretic hierarchy. Those don't matter for day-to-day mathematics, but they do matter if you want to fix the foundations properly.

@@Happy_Abe You MUST take logic, but it's insanely "expensive" in terms of concentration required. The trick is to understand that it is talking about computations, that computations are fundamental. To learn proper foundations, start with a "HoTT" book or course, to learn how to program proofs (this is a quick and dirty way of learning both first-order-logic and also intuitionistic logic, which is the 'correct' logic, but it's really hard to understand how to do set theoretic stuff in it). The main highlights of logic are: 1. Computation and logical completeness, this is the 'world's worst programming language', consisting of "or", "and", "implies" and bounded arithmetic predicates. It's terrible, but you have to learn it. It's equivalent to programming in C with infinite integer variables but only bounded "for" loops which are not allowed to change the loop variable. General computation just adds the ability to loop forever. 2. Godel incompleteness, learn how to prove it computationally. 3. Turing oracles: this is essential, to translate to logic transitions to second-order arithmetic (you need to be able to talk about reals) 4. Hypercomputation: this is what happens when you iterate ordinals over Kleene's O, it's equivalent to Delta-1-1 predicates in second order arithmetic, or to Turing computation with the added magic that you can always tell when the computation is going to halt or not. The proper foundations is going to be something analogous to HoTT, but using Spector's 1962 posthumous paper on the computational formulation of second order arithmetic using "bar recursion" (well-founded recursion, or 'arithmetic transfinite recursion' in second-order arithmetic jargon). Set theories can be coded up in this language, but questions like the axiom of choice become irrelevant for collections as big as the reals, because they aren't present in second-order formulations. The 'axiom of choice' is just true when it's dependent choice, the thing about uncountable structures is that they are not absolute, they are a dogma, you can modify their properties nearly entirely arbitrarily using forcing. The standard expositions of forcing are not as good as Nik Weaver's "Forcing for Mathematicians". Read that. And Cohen's original book. BUT, you need to learn forcing in the context of computation and second order arithmetic too, this was pioneered by Steele in the 1970s with "Forcing on Tagged Trees", and perhaps there is a more recent reference elsewhere.

None of the equivalencies mentioned here requires the axiom of replacement, neither Zorn's lemma nor the wellordering principle. ZC is enough. While replacement allows a mapping to ordinals rendering the induction more intuitive, we can technically do without them. Historically Zermelo introduced AC to prove the wellordering principle decades before Fraenkel added Replacement: ZFC. The Bourbaki group based the early versions of their books on (something like) ZC. Most of basic, classical mathematics does not require replacement. Only when the existence of larger sets is needed (Borel Determinacy being a prime example) replacement is required. ZFC proves the consistency of ZC, so it is a strictly stronger theory.

You're right, I was more so talking about that specific proof of these equivalences rather than the actual equivalences themselves. For example, there are proofs that don't even use ordinals or transfinite induction (www.jstor.org/stable/2323807?seq=1). But since the most common proofs used in undergraduate curriculum (as far as I know) use transfinite induction and axiom of replacement, I thought they were worth a mention.

From a technical viewpoint, the axiom of choice matters because things in math can only be defined in a finite number of steps, it can deal with infinite objects but only in a finite way. That's why the existence of the set of natural numbers, an infinite set, must be a new axiom, unable to be proven from previous axioms.

One of the deeper problems here is "logicism". Mathematics is richer than that and is a system _with which we we formalize_ basic numerical and geometric _intuitions._ But the intuitions are often thought to be "not mathematics". This is wrong, and yet true in one sense: our intuitions are not _formal mathematics._ One intuition is that if we throw a (mathematical point) dart at the line ℝ it will hit a real number (or a hyperreal that has a real _standard part_ ). Mixing such physics/geometric notions with formal mathematics is considered by math snobs and level-2 nerds to be a terrible "no no" but that's the problem. Logicism or formality restricts axiomatic development and gives rise to some of the unintuitive results. But the restrictions are a good thing, they give more creative mathematicians room. Creating better formal mathematics out of basic intuitions is the task. No one said it could be perfected.

Can someone please explain more about why every chain in A ( 21:50 ) has an upper bound?
@ethanbottomley-mason8447
@ethanbottomley-mason8447 24 күн бұрын
Given a chain {f_i} where i are in some index set S, we can define an upper bound on this chain. Let Y be the union of dom(f_i) over all i. For any x in Y, x in Y so x in dom(f_i) for some i, so let f(x) = f_i(x). Then f is an upper bound on the chain. It might look like we are using the axiom of choice to construct f, but in reality, understanding functions as relations, f is in fact just the union of f_i over all i in S.

​@@ethanbottomley-mason8447 Thanks for the explanation. Allow me to reword the idea. The partial ordered of A is induced by the set inclusion relation, therefore we must treat the function as a set of ordered pairs to make the set inclusion relation to work. We say f_1 is smaller than f_2 if 1) the domain of f_1 is a subset of f_2 and 2) f_2 gives give the same output with f_1 while the input is in the domain of f_1. Then the upper bound of a chain will be the function which domain is the union of all function in the chain. The output has no ambiguity since we require that while the domain of two function overlaps, their output must be the same.

Banach-Tarski has bothered me a lot less since I realized that, given that planar construction geometry as per Euclid, only points with rational coordinates are in the constructible plane. So there are uncountably infinitely many holes in a continuous plane already. What's a few more? I suppose it would take a lot of work to try to figure out just how many intuitive and even axiomatic assertions there are because the Euclidean plane is quite literally nothing compared to a continuous plane.

Minor nitpick: square roots of constructible numbers are constructible, so there are some points with irrational coordinates which are constructible, e.g., (sqrt(2),sqrt(2)). Nevertheless, your main point stands: it is still true that there are only countably many constructible points on the plane. This follows from the fact that all constructible numbers are algebraic and there are only countably many algebraic numbers.

Cardinal magnitude is a canard. What we must ultimately understand is the (time/distance) Cartesian relationship and the nature of number that is implicitly bound to time. What we're really looking at is a rate of growth. Iteration along a 1 dimensional number line is sub-unitary. The natural base, e, is the unitary rate of growth in the universe. The concept of power sets, much like the concept of a Fibonatchi based rate of growth that we see in natural processes, is an algorithmic based transform on a given set with a certain growth curve. The idea that we have these "collections" of objects - integers say - in some bag and we can reach into our set/container/bag and simply withdraw either the first element or the infinity minus one element with equal speed, precision, and ease of efficiency is not supported by actual calculations, computer systems, or any extant form of symbolic representation.

But if I don't accept AC, then AC immediately becomes undecidable in ZF, I think? Which means I cannot find a baseless vector space anyway, since otherwise AC would become decidable.

Was the Axiom of Choice a redundant constraint just to counter the dogmatic determinacy dictated by the Monotheistic religious beliefs, as such the AC being more of a political statement than a real Axiom? Once this choice was made, however of course one can defend it as necessary or refute it. I guess the ambiguity can be dissolved by a different theory entirely, such as the Homotopy Type Theory or other theories that favour the absence of infinities of whatever cardinality. I would love to find a consistent and robust answer to all of these assumptions. Or is this the realm of Godel's theorem?

I don't know for sure why, but here's a perspective. How do we find the volume of compound geometric objects? Imagine a silo-shaped geometric object: a cylinder with a hemisphere on top. How do you find the volume? You split the object into two pieces (the cylinder and the hemisphere), find the volumes of those pieces separately, and then you add those volumes together. Now, when we go to the Banach-Tarksi process, we split a sphere into 5 pieces, perform volume-preserving manipulations to those 5 pieces, and then we end up with 2 pieces, each having the same volume as what we started with. Viewing this process from a high-level, it brings into question our strategy of "break into pieces, find the volume of the pieces, and add those volumes together." If it doesn't work in the context of Banach-Tarksi, how do we know it's actually valid in other contexts? There is a simple resolution to this fear: the 5 pieces we broke the sphere into don't all have a well-defined volume. There is at least one piece which does not have a defined volume (this is not saying the volume is 0; a volume of 0 would be a defined volume). So as long as we break our geometric object into pieces which all have defined volumes, then our strategy will work.

"Most (maybe all?) ordinals still have cardinality aleph null, so they are the same size." No. There are infinitely many ordinal numbers of each cardinality. And the rigorous way to define cardinal numbers in ZFC is as a special subclass of the ordinal numbers. And indeed, the hierarchy of transfinite cardinal numbers (assuming the axiom of choice) can be defined exactly as the video describes. Fix any transfinite ordinal number α, and take the set of all ordinal numbers β which inject into α. This set has a supremum in the ordinal numbers, and that supremum will be an ordinal of the "next" cardinality after the cardinality of α.

Sets feel like "who's on first." The math that I don't like is where physicists think math can dictate cause to them. To get a physics degree, everything is 100% math. Cause is an afterthought scoffed as "the intuitive explanation," and yet I can prove that dancing around math analogies can hide the real cause from you. "The wheels on the bus go round and round." This song describes EVERYTHING you see a bus do exactly like math does, but it is not an understanding of a bus. Modern science WILL NOT see past the FIRST successful description. Constants are SET in stone. You think angular momentum causes the gyroscopic effect, and it is well known that angular momentum is a fake vector. Make sense of that one. I have a video that shows what cause actually looks like, and it's based in absolutes.

You cast axioms as constructs on top of mathematical objects. But that's just not true. The word means things you simply declare true. Similar to a = 4 but general and so fundamental. Take numbers themselves. You start with a few axiomatic declarations and you build sets upon them. The theory of non-contradiction, the excluded middle - they're all axiomatic. Say I want to construct a 4d space with my computer. I declare 4d vectors, I decide if it's linear, I insert an orthonormal basis. When this is done, I take these axioms and I use the logical axioms to build upon them until the person running the programme, projected onto the 2d screen is very confused. It's a starting point, not an ending. It's not a conclusion, it's an assumption.

Multiplication is dual to division (multiplicative inverses) -- abstract algebra. Integration (summations, syntropy) is dual to differentiation (differences, entropy) -- abstract algebra. All numbers are dual if they fall within the complex plane as complex numbers are dual. Real (kinetic energy) is dual to imaginary (potential energy) -- energy is dual!

Axioms are not “true”. This is a meaningless phrase. Axioms are just a assumed so that the logical consequences of that assumption can be explored

14:32 The domain of h in this case doesn't have to be P(X)\{∅} right? It can just be the union of all Xy such that y belongs in Y.
