set theory in English

noun
1
the branch of mathematics that deals with the formal properties of sets as units (without regard to the nature of their individual constituents) and the expression of other branches of mathematics in terms of sets.
He therefore attempted to put set theory on an axiomatic basis to avoid the paradoxes.
