Synopsis:

Firstly, the Peano axioms are treated in detail. Elements of the set theory cover only: equivalence and subvalence, the Cantorov-Bernstein theorem, the axiom of choice and equivalent statements, definition of ordinals and cardinals. Further standard algebraic structures are addressed: semigroups, monoids, groups, rings, integral domains, principal ideal domains, fields, lattices. Independent chapters are devoted to divisibility in integral domains and to finite fields.
