![Book cover: Descriptive Set Theory](images/9695.jpg)
by David Marker - University of Illinois at Chicago , 2002
These are informal notes for a course in Descriptive Set Theory. While I hope to give a fairly broad survey of the subject we will be concentrating on problems about group actions, particularly those motivated by Vaught's conjecture.

![Book cover: Axiomatic Set Theory](images/8502.jpg)
by Michael Meyling , 2011
This document contains the mathematical foundation of set theory. Goal is the presentation of elementary results which are needed in other disciplines. Although the presentation is axiomatic the results shall match the mathematical usage.

![Book cover: Proof, Sets, and Logic](images/5314.jpg)
by M. Randall Holmes - Boise State University , 2009
This textbook is intended to communicate something about proof, sets, and logic. It is about the foundations of mathematics, a subject which results when mathematicians examine the subject matter and the practice of their own subject very carefully.

![Book cover: Abstract Set Theory](images/5196.jpg)
by Thoralf A. Skolem - University of Notre Dame , 1962
The book contains a series of lectures on abstract set theory given at the University of Notre Dame. After some historical remarks the chief ideas of the naive set theory are explained. Then the axiomatic theory of Zermelo-Fraenkel is developed.

![Book cover: The Continuum and Other Types of Serial Order](images/4109.jpg)
by Edward V. Huntington - Dover Publications , 1917
This classic of mathematics presents the best systematic elementary account of the modern theory of the continuum as a type of serial order. Based on the Dedekind-Cantor ordinal theory, it requires no knowledge of higher mathematics.

by Yiannis N. Moschovakis - American Mathematical Society , 2009
This monograph develops Descriptive Set Theory from its classical roots to the modern 'effective' theory. The book emphasizes the foundations of the subject, and it sets the stage for the dramatic results established since the 1980s.
