Regularity theorem for Lebesgue measure — In mathematics, the regularity theorem for Lebesgue measure is a result in measure theory that states that Lebesgue measure on the real line is a regular measure. Informally speaking, this means that every Lebesgue measurable subset of the real… … Wikipedia
Axiom of regularity — In mathematics, the axiom of regularity (also known as the axiom of foundation) is one of the axioms of Zermelo Fraenkel set theory and was introduced by harvtxt|von Neumann|1925. In first order logic the axiom reads::forall A (exists B (B in A)… … Wikipedia
