The power set is closely related to the binomial theorem. The number of sets with elements in the power set of a set with elements will be a combination also called a binomial coefficient.
For example the power set of a set with three elements, has:
- set with 0 elements
- sets with 1 element
- sets with 2 elements
- set with 3 elements.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation and/or theorem:
“A theory of the middle class: that it is not to be determined by its financial situation but rather by its relation to government. That is, one could shade down from an actual ruling or governing class to a class hopelessly out of relation to government, thinking of gov’t as beyond its control, of itself as wholly controlled by gov’t. Somewhere in between and in gradations is the group that has the sense that gov’t exists for it, and shapes its consciousness accordingly.”
—Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
“To criticize is to appreciate, to appropriate, to take intellectual possession, to establish in fine a relation with the criticized thing and to make it one’s own.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
“To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
