What did Cantor establish about sets?

  • They can be well-ordered

  • They all are finite

  • They have the same elements

  • They cannot intersect

Answer

Sets can be well-ordered, meaning that they can be arranged in a sequence such that each element is greater than all the preceding ones. This concept was established by Georg Cantor, who is considered the founder of set theory. Well-ordering allows for the comparison and ordering of sets, facilitating mathematical analysis and reasoning.
