Separation axiom — In topology and related fields of mathematics, there are several restrictions that one often makes on the kinds of topological spaces that one wishes to consider. Some of these restrictions are given by the separation axioms. These are sometimes… … Wikipedia

Axiom of empty set — In set theory, the axiom of empty set is one of the axioms of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory and one of the axioms of Kripke–Platek set theory. Formal statement In the formal language of the Zermelo–Fraenkel axioms, the axiom reads::exist x, forall… … Wikipedia
Axiom schema of replacement — In set theory, the axiom schema of replacement is a schema of axioms in Zermelo Fraenkel set theory (ZFC) that asserts that the image of any set under any definable mapping is also a set. It is necessary for the construction of certain infinite… … Wikipedia
Axiom schema of predicative separation — In axiomatic set theory, the axiom schema of predicative separation, or of restricted, or Delta;0 separation, is a schema of axioms which is a restriction of the usual axiom schema of separation in Zermelo Fraenkel set theory. It only asserts the … Wikipedia
