Set-Theoretical Universe

The set-theoretical universe is a conceptual framework in mathematics that envisions all mathematical objects as sets—collections of elements. It is a vast, hierarchical structure built from the empty set by repeatedly adding elements to create larger sets. Think of it as an endless, organized universe where every entity, number, or concept can be represented as a set, allowing mathematicians to study the foundations and relationships of all mathematical ideas within a consistent, logical system. This universe provides a formal basis for understanding concepts like numbers, functions, and structures in a unified way.
