In
set theory, the '
universal set, denoted U
, is the set containing all the existing collections. Each existing set is a subset of the universe, then we can say that U
also contains all the existing elements. Each set is included in U and U includes all sets
. The universal set is unique Includes all other existing sets Each element belongs to U
The union of a set with the ' universal set is the whole universe itself
The intersection of a set A with the whole universe is the same set A The only collection that contains the universal set is the whole universe itself
- It is said that the whole universe is unique because it is not properly identified as "a universal set", as it is one and then it says "the whole universe" .
- course also contains a whole universe itself and the empty set. That is and {U}.
