Intension and structure of actually infinite, rigid sets

Abstract

Purpose

On the basis of previous work, the authors aim to further study the problem of infinity existing in between predicates and sets.

Design/methodology/approach

A conceptual approach is taken in the paper.

Findings

The authors modify the conventional rule of thinking that each predicate determines a unique set, and establish a principle regarding the relationship between predicates and sets. Then, the authors study the structures of actually infinite, rigid sets.

Originality/value

The structure of actually infinite sets is detailed.
