Equipollent Equipollent

Equipollent - Definition and Overview

Two sets A and B are said to be equinumerous if they have the same cardinality, i.e., if there exists a bijection f : AB. This is denoted

<math>A =_c B \quad \mathrm{or} \quad A \approx B<math>

The study of cardinality is often called equinumerosity. Sometimes the terms equipollent or even equivalent are used, though equivalent is a bit overused. More at cardinality.
