Set Theory

Every field in the present world involves a set. The theory of sets was developed by German mathematician Georg Cantor while working on the “problems of trigonometric series”.

Without proving anything, determine if the following statements are true or false. For any false statements, give an counterexample. (a) A finite, nonempty set of real numbers always contains its supremum. (b) If a < L for every element a in the set A, then sup A < L. (c) If A and B are sets with the property that a < b for every a E A and b e B, then sup A < inf B. (d) If sup A = s and sup B = t, then sup(A+ B) = s+t. Here and elsewhere, the set A+B is defined as A+B = {a+b:a € A, and b e B}. (e) If sup A < sup B then there is an element of B that is an upper bound for A.
