Show that $Xsubset Xcupleft{ Xright}$

$begingroup$



  • Show that If $X$ is an any set, then $Xsubset Xcupleft{ Xright}$


Proof. Let $tin X$. We must show $tin Xcupleft{ Xright}$, that is we need to show either $tin X$ or $tinleft{ Xright}$, so we know that $tin X$, hence we are done.



Can you check my proof?

    Is so simple that any more explanation just would make it clumsy. It is fine. A little thing: change that "so" by "but".

    @YoungMath the questin was from my exam. I think It is very trivially but I see that the question don't says that $Xsubseteq Xcupleft{Xright}$, from this do we get any problem?

    @KathySong Yes, $subset$ makes a difference. You need to show $exists ain Xcup{X}$ such that $anotin X$. That $a$ is $X$

    Oh well, that's subtile, you're right. Then, you need to show that $X neq X cup {X}$. However, this is simple since $X notin X$ due to the axiom of regularity.

Apparently, an answer on ground level of set theory is needed here. Since the inclusion $X subseteq X cup {X}$ is already discussed in full detail, I want to make a remark about the case $X neq X cup {X }$.



The Axiom of Regularity reads
$$ forall x left( x neq emptyset Rightarrow exists y in x: y cap x = emptyset right).$$



Let us prove, that $X notin X$ for all sets $X$.



Soo, let $X$ be any set. Due to the axiom of pairing, ${X}$ is a set aswell and clearly not empty (well, $X$ is an element). But in consequence of the axiom of regularity, we must have $X cap {X} = emptyset$ since $X$ is the only element in ${X}$. Hence, $X notin X$.
