This is a list of axiom s as that term is understood in mathematics , by Wikipedia page. In epistemology , the word axiom is understood differently see axiom and self evidence . Individual axioms are almost always part of a larger axiomatic system . Zermelo Fraenkel axioms These are the de facto standard axioms for contemporary mathematics or set theory . They can be easily adapted to analogous theories, such as mereology . Axiom of extensionality Axiom of empty set Axiom of pairing Axiom of union Axiom of infinity Axiom schema of replacement Axiom of power set Axiom of regularity Axiom of separation Axiom schema of specification See also Zermelo set theory .

In computational complexity theory the Blum axioms or Blum complexity axioms are axioms which specify desirable properties of complexity measures on the set of computable function s. The axioms were first defined by Manuel Blum in 1967. Importantly, the Blum s speedup theorem Speedup and Gap theorem Gap theorems hold for any complexity measure satisfying these axioms. The most well known measures satisfying these axioms are those of time i.e., running time and space i.e., memory usage . Definitions A Blum complexity measure is a tuple math varphi, Phi math with math varphi math a G del numbering of the partial computable function s math mathbf P 1 math and a computable function math Phi mathbb N to mathbf P 1 math which satisfies the following Blum axioms . We write math varphi i math for the i th partial computable function under the G del numbering math varphi math , and math Phi i math for the partial computable function math Phi i math . the domain mathematics domain of math varphi i math and the domain of math Phi i math is identical. the set math i,x,t in mathbb N 3 Phi i x t math is Recursive language recursive . Examples math varphi, Phi math is a complexity measure, if math Phi math is either the time or the memory or some suitable combination thereof required for the computation coded by i . math varphi, varphi math is not a complexity measure, since it fails the second axiom. Notes A Blum complexity measure is defined using computable functions without any reference to a specific model of computation . In order to make the definition more accessible we rephrase the Blum axioms in terms of Turing machine s A Blum complexity measure is a function math Phi math from pairs Turing machine math M math , input math x math to math M math to the natural numbers union infinity. Furthermore, math Phi math should satisfy the following axioms math Phi M,x math is finite ... complexity theory Category Mathematical axioms ... more details

In 1932, George David Birkhoff G. D. Birkhoff created a set of four postulate s of Euclidean geometry sometimes referred to as Birkhoff s axioms . These postulates are all based on basic geometry that can be confirmed experimentally with a scale and protractor . Since the postulates build upon the real number s, the approach is similar to a model theory model based introduction to Euclidean geometry. Other often used axiomizations of plane geometry are Hilbert s axioms and Tarski s axioms . Birkhoff s axiom system was utilized in the secondary school text Basic Geometry first edition, 1940 see References . Postulates Postulate I Postulate of Line Measure . A set of points A, B , ... on any line can be put into a 1 1 correspondence with the real number s a, b , ... so that b &minus a d A, B for all points A and B . Postulate II Point Line Postulate .

Armstrong s axioms are a set of axiom s or, more precisely, inference rule s used to infer all the functional dependency functional dependencies on a relational database . They were developed by William Ward Armstrong William W. Armstrong on his paper ref William Ward Armstrong Dependency Structures of Data Base Relationships , page 580 583. IFIP Congress, 1974. ref . The axioms are soundness sound in that they generate only functional dependencies in the closure mathematics closure of a set of functional dependencies denoted as F sup sup when applied to that set denoted as F . They are also completeness complete in that repeated application of these rules will generate all functional dependencies in the closure F sup sup . More formally, let math R math math U math , math F math denote a relational scheme over the set of attributes math U math with a set of functional dependencies math F math .

In mathematics , specifically in algebraic topology , the Eilenberg Steenrod axioms are properties that homology theory homology theories of topological space s have in common. The quintessential example of a homology theory satisfying the axioms is singular homology , developed by Samuel Eilenberg and Norman Steenrod . Indeed, one can define a homology theory as a sequence of functor s satisfying the Eilenberg Steenrod axioms. The axiomatic approach, which was developed in 1945, allows one to prove results, such as the Mayer Vietoris sequence , that are common to all homology theories satisfying the axioms. ref http www.math.uiuc.edu K theory 0245 survey.pdf ref If one omits the dimension axiom described below , then the remaining axioms define what is called an extraordinary homology theory .

In topology and related branches of mathematics , the Kuratowski closure axioms are a set of axiom s which can be used to define a topological structure on a Set mathematics set .

Basic Definition and Requirements An axiom P is independent if there are no other axioms Q such that Q implies P. In many cases independence is desired, either to reach the logical consequence conclusion of a reduced set of axioms, or to be able to replace an independent axiom to create a more concise system for example, the parallel postulate is independent of Euclid s Axioms, and can provide interesting results when a negated or manipulated form of the postulate is put into its place . Proving Independence If the original axioms Q are not consistent , then no new axiom is independent. If they are consistent, then P can be shown independent of them if adding P to them, or adding the negation of P, both yield consistent sets of axioms. ref Kenneth Kunen, Set Theory An Introduction to Independence Proofs , page xi. ref For example, Euclid s Axioms, with the parallel postulate included, yields Euclidean geometry, and with the parallel postulate negated, yields non Euclidean spherical or hyperbolic geometry. Both of these are consistent systems, showing that the parallel postulate is independent of the other axioms of geometry. ref Harold Scott Macdonald Coxeter, Non Euclidean Geometry , pages 1 15. ref Proving independence is often very difficult.

Axiom S5 is the distinctive axiom of the S5 modal logic S5 modal logic and states that if possibly p , then necessarily possibly p . It also states, perhaps less intuitively and more controversially, that if possibly necessarily p , then necessarily p . The use of S5 is to eliminate excessive qualifiers or modal operators to a proposition, and instead, to accept the final qualifier as the only significant qualifier. That is, S5 discounts all but the final possibly or necessarily. The axiom is given as either Possibly P implies Necessarily Possibly p math Diamond p to Box Diamond p math CMpLMp in polish notation Possibly Necessarily P implies Necessarily p math Diamond Box p to Box p math CMLpLp in polish notation Both of these axioms are properly called axiom 5.
