Fichtenholz-Kantorovich independent family

ID: fichtenholz-kantorovich-independent-family

For every infinite set there is an independent family of sets consisting of subsets of . One construction uses a set of pairs , where is finite and . For each , let . Given distinct , choose a finite distinguishing all their traces and choose to contain precisely the traces prescribed to have value one. This realizes every finite Boolean choice. With the axiom of choice, , so a bijection transports this family to . Its independent assignments give distinct ultrafilters.
