• Question1:

Dror you said in class the set of permutations of 0's and 1's could be mapped "bijectively" onto the unit interval [0,1] and hence is not countable.Is it true that every real number in the unit interval has more than one binary expansion? Is it possible to map the set of all permutations onto N union {0}? (the first number stands for 2^0, second stands for 2^1, etc.) -Kai

• Question2:

Suppose we have a collection of sets which is closed under intersection. Does it mean that it is closed under arbitrary intersecions(i.e. uncountable intersections?) Also, suppose this set satisfies the condition: for any A,B in the set, A intersect B is in the set. What can mathematical induction give us? A.the set is closed under finite intersections B.the set is closed under countable intersections C.the set is closed under arbitrary intersections. And Why? -Kai
