| Theorem | ruc 7761 | The set of natural numbers is strictly dominated by the set of real numbers, i.e. the real numbers are uncountable.

| Theorem | alephexp2 7798 | An expression equinumerous to 2 to an aleph power. The proof equates the two laws for cardinal exponentiation alephexp1 7796 (which works if the base is less than or equal to the exponent) and infmap2 7793 (which works if the exponent is less than or equal to the base). They can be equated only when the base is equal to the exponent, and this is the result. |
| Continuum Hypothesis | ||
| Theorem | gch-kn 7799 | The equivalence of two versions of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis. The right-hand side is the standard version in the literature. The left-hand side is a version devised by Kannan Nambiar, which he calls the Axiom of Combinatorial Sets. For the notation and motivation behind this axiom, see his paper, "Derivation of Continuum Hypothesis from Axiom of Combinatorial Sets," available at http://www.e-atheneum.net/science/derivation_ch.pdf. The equivalence of the two sides provides a negative answer to Open Problem 2 in http://www.e-atheneum.net/science/open_problem_print.pdf. The key idea in the proof below is to equate both sides of alephexp2 7798 to the successor aleph using enen2 4623. |
