mathematics: in general, a function has the Darboux property if every image of an interval is itself an interval. In formal terms, Darboux property is expressed as: for any two values a and b in the domain of f, and any y between f(a) and f(b), there is some c between a and b with f(c) = y
if assuming the Axiom of Choice, which states that any collection of sets, each containing at least one element, it is possible to make a selection of exactly one element from each set, the Banach-Tarski paradox says that states that a solid ball in 3-dimensional space can be split into a finite number of non-overlapping pieces, which can then be put back together in a different way to yield two identical copies of the original ball
A sequence x_n in a metric space with metric d such that for every \epsilon > 0 there exists a natural number N so that for every k, m \ge N : d(x_k, x_m) < \epsilon
