# Axioms of set theory
|
||
|
|
||
|
The basic notions of set theory are defined in
|
||
|
[Basic properties of sets](Basic%20properties%20of%20sets.md). There we
|
||
|
introduced a formal syntax that will be utilised to define the axioms. For easy
|
||
|
reference:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- variables $a,b,c,...$ to range over sets
|
||
|
- variables $x,y,z$ to range over ordinary objects as well as sets.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Axiom of Extensionality
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sets which contain the same members are the same set. If sets A and B contain
|
||
|
the same elements then A = B.
|
||
|
$$\forall a \forall b [\forall x (x \in a \longleftrightarrow x \in b) \rightarrow a =b]$$
