Definition of continuum hypothesis in English: continuum hypothesisnoun Mathematics The assertion that there is no transfinite cardinal between the cardinal of the set of positive integers and that of the set of real numbers. Example sentencesExamples - If, on the other hand, if we decide to not include the continuum hypothesis, then the situation is undetermined.
- The main focus of the 1964 paper is the continuum hypothesis, an interesting case study for Godel's philosophical view.
- In set theory he made important contributions to the axiom of choice and to the continuum hypothesis.
- In 1938, logician Kurt Godel proved that the continuum hypothesis is consistent with the standard axioms of set theory.
- A good axiom, he felt, should help mathematicians settle not only the continuum hypothesis but also many other questions about Cantor's hierarchy of infinite sets.
