Partial list:

Number, Limit, Set, Function, Infinite, Supremum, Infimum, Epsilon, Continuum.

When you read my work, then and only then we shall talk about it.

As you've been told by numerous people, if you wouldn't make significant edits to your post after they're up it would made it easier it talk to you.

As for your list, again, as you've been told by many, many people, just because you can type a word doesn't mean you understand it. You've cited "epsilon" as a "key word" in your abstract for Christ's sake. You're habit is to sieze on a mathematical word, redefine it, then use it. This is hardly conducive to productive dialogue.

Ex-xian, let us make it short.

If you want to open a dialog then read all of http://www.geocities.com/complementa...ointModels.pdf
before you reply anything about it.

In the sum 2+4+8+16+..., the sum is even after each new term is added.
Therefore the sum, whatever it is, must be an even number.
Therefore the sum 2+4+8+16+... is not infinite.
Perhaps it's both even and odd. Perhaps since infinity isn't considered a real number the question is meaningless.

Please read some actual analysis and algebra texts before you make anymore pds files.

I did, I saw its fundamental conceptual and logical fallacy about the set's concept and I invented a better mathematical framework.

All of it, including the fallacy of the common system, can be found in http://www.geocities.com/complementa...ointModels.pdf

Really, which texts did you read?

It is all over the internet, take this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...cs#Foundations for example.

I did end up reading through most of your post except for all your definitions. I'm not reading your pdf links. If that's what you require then no thanks.

The best you can do is to read very carefully my work, and see by yourself, how I take the most fundamental concepts of common Math, and show why my system is better than the common interpretation of these fundamental concepts.
No. The burden of proof is on you to show why we should care. So far I am not impressed with the proof which rested on the highly vague notion of what a "sharp edge" is.

It isn't. My proof was stupid. In fact I don't even think it makes sense to ask the question whether infinity is odd or even. I was giving an argument using vague common sense ideas which leads to a silly result, like Doron's proof involving "sharp edges".

I think stupid is probably too strong a word.
