/kloc-in the 20th century, a great Indian mathematician, Bascara, appeared, and his concept was close to that of theory.
The symbol of putting 8 horizontally as ∞ to represent infinity was first used in john wallis's paper Arithmetic Infinity (published in 1655).
Infinity in mathematics:
In mathematics, infinity is related to the following topics or concepts: mathematical limit, Alev number, class in set theory, Dai Dejin-infinite group, Russell paradox, hyperreal number, projective geometry, extended real number axis and absolute infinity. In some themes or concepts, infinity is considered as a concept that is added beyond the boundary, rather than a number.
In pop culture, Buzz Lightyear's mantra in Toy Story is "To infinity and beyond!" This sentence can also be regarded as the cry of set theorists who study large cardinality.
