Definition Let M be a smooth manifold with a diffeomorphism f M &rarr M . Then f is an axiom A diffeomorphism if the following two conditions hold The nonwandering set of f , &Omega f , is a hyperbolic set and Compact space compact . The set of periodic point s of f is dense in &Omega f . For surfaces, hyperbolicity of the nonwandering set implies the density of periodic points, but this is no longer true in higher dimensions. Nonetheless, axiom A diffeomorphisms are sometimes called hyperbolic diffeomorphisms , because the portion of M where the interesting dynamics occurs, namely, &Omega f , exhibits hyperbolic behavior.

for the action axiom in praxeology praxeology Refimprove date July 2007 An action axiom is an axiom that embodies a criterion for recommending action. Action axioms are of the form IF a condition holds, THEN the following should be done. Decision theory and, hence, decision analysis are based on the maximum expected utility MEU action axiom. In general, the principle for action embodied by an action axiom such as MEU is highly defensible, and its scope is very broad. The action axiom is the basis of praxeology, and it is the basic proposition that all specimens of the species homo sapiens, the homo agens, purposefully utilize means over a period of time in order to achieved desired ends. In Human Action, Mises defined action in the sense of the action axiom by elucidating blockquote Human action is purposeful behavior. Or we may say Action is will put into operation and transformed into an agency, is aiming at ends and goals, is the ego s meaningful response to stimuli and to the conditions of its environment, is a person s conscious adjustment to the state of the universe that determines his life. Such paraphrases may clarify the definition given and prevent possible misinterpretations.

The axiom of constructibility is a possible axiom for set theory in mathematics that asserts that every set is Constructible universe constructible . The axiom is usually written as V L , where V and L denote the von Neumann universe and the constructible universe , respectively. Implications The axiom of constructibility implies the axiom of choice over Zermelo Fraenkel set theory . It also settles many natural mathematical questions independent of Zermelo Fraenkel set theory with the axiom of choice ZFC . For example, the axiom of constructibility implies the Continuum hypothesis The generalized continuum hypothesis generalized continuum hypothesis , the negation of Suslin s hypothesis , and the existence of an analytical hierarchy analytical in fact, math Delta 1 2 math non measurable set of real numbers, all of which are independent of ZFC. The axiom of constructibility implies the non existence of those large cardinals with consistency strength greater or equal to zero sharp 0 , which includes some relatively small large cardinals. Thus, no cardinal can be sub 1 sub Erd s cardinal Erd s in L . While L does contain the initial ordinals of those large cardinals when they exist in a supermodel of L , and they are still initial ordinals in L , it excludes the auxiliary structures e.g. measurable cardinal measures which endow those cardinals with their large cardinal properties. Although the axiom of constructibility does resolve many set theoretic questions, it is not typically accepted as an axiom for set theory in the same way as the ZFC axioms. Among set theorists of a Philosophy of mathematics Mathematical realism or Platonism realist bent, who believe that the axiom ... reason to believe that these are all of them.

In axiomatic set theory and the branches of logic , mathematics , and computer science that use it, the axiom of union is one of the axiom s of Zermelo Fraenkel set theory , stating that, for any set x there is a set y whose elements are precisely the elements of the elements of x . Together with the axiom of pairing this implies that for any two sets, there is a set that contains exactly the elements of both. Formal statement In the formal language of the Zermelo Fraenkel axioms, the axiom reads math forall A , exist B , forall c , c in B iff exist D , c in D and D in A , math or in words Given any Set mathematics set A , Existential quantification there is a set B such that, for any element c , c is a member of B if and only if there is a set D such that c is a member of D logical conjunction and D is a member of A . Interpretation What the axiom is really saying is that, given a set A , we can find a set B whose members are precisely the members of the members of A . By the axiom of extensionality this set B is unique and it is called the union set theory union of A , and denoted math bigcup A math . Thus the essence of the axiom is The union of a set is a set. The axiom of union is generally considered uncontroversial, and it or an equivalent appears in just about any alternative axiomatization of set theory. Note that there is no corresponding axiom of intersection set theory intersection . If A is a nonempty set containing E , then we can form the intersection math bigcap A math using the axiom schema of specification as c in E for all D in A , c is in D , so no separate axiom of intersection is necessary. If A is the empty set , then trying to form the intersection of A as c for all D in A , c is in D is not permitted by the axioms.

mergeto Completeness of the real numbers discuss Talk Completeness axiom Merger proposal date October 2010 In mathematics the completeness axiom , also called Dedekind completeness of the real numbers, is a fundamental property of the set R of Real number Axiomatic approach real number s. It is the property that distinguishes R from other ordered field s, especially from the set of rational number s. The axiom states that every non empty subset S of R that has an upper bound in R has a least upper bound, or supremum , in R . See the article on Construction of the real numbers Synthetic approach construction of the real numbers for a full explanation. The completeness axiom should not be confused with the topological property of complete metric space Completion completeness of a metric space . The two properties are related, since R , as a metric space with the standard absolute value metric where the distance between x and y is x &minus y , does have the latter property as a consequence of its Dedekind completeness. Indeed, R is the Complete metric space Completion completion , in the sense of metric spaces, of the set Q of rational numbers under the absolute value metric. Thus, the completeness property of metric spaces is one generalization of the completeness axiom itself. Another generalization focuses on the ordering of the real numbers. In any partially ordered set , the analog of Dedekind completeness is the property that every non empty subset that is bounded above has a least upper bound in other words, the same axiom interpreted in greater generality. A partially ordered set with this property is a lattice order lattice , specifically a Lattice order Conditional completeness conditionally complete lattice . In practice a stronger property is usually employed that every subset, whether or not it is empty or bounded above, has a least upper bound. Such a partially ordered set is called a complete lattice . Category Real numbers math stub ... more details

Basic Definition and Requirements An axiom P is independent if there are no other axioms Q such that Q implies P. In many cases independence is desired, either to reach the logical consequence conclusion of a reduced set of axioms, or to be able to replace an independent axiom to create a more concise system for example, the parallel postulate is independent of Euclid s Axioms, and can provide interesting results when a negated or manipulated form of the postulate is put into its place . Proving Independence If the original axioms Q are not consistent , then no new axiom is independent. If they are consistent, then P can be shown independent of them if adding P to them, or adding the negation of P, both yield consistent sets of axioms. ref Kenneth Kunen, Set Theory An Introduction to Independence Proofs , page xi. ref For example, Euclid s Axioms, with the parallel postulate included, yields Euclidean geometry, and with the parallel postulate negated, yields non Euclidean spherical or hyperbolic geometry. Both of these are consistent systems, showing that the parallel postulate is independent of the other axioms of geometry. ref Harold Scott Macdonald Coxeter, Non Euclidean Geometry , pages 1 15. ref Proving independence is often very difficult. Forcing mathematics Forcing is one commonly used technique. ref Kenneth Kunen, Set Theory An Introduction to Independence Proofs , pages 184 237. ref References Reflist DEFAULTSORT Axiom Independence Category Metalogic ... more details
