There is no bijection between any set A and its power set P(A) of A.
For finite sets, proof is trivial since |A| = n and |P(A)| = 2^n. For finite sets, this is done by contradiction. Suppose there is a bijection $ between a set A and its power set P(A). Consider the set B={x|x is a member A where x is not a member $(x)}For each element x A, since $ is a function from A to the power set of A, &(x) ia a subset of A. By our earlier assumption on set theory that every element is either in a set or ot in a set, for each x A, w can certainly ask if x is a member of $(x). Therefore, the set B is well definedB. We know B is a subset of A and $ is a bijection from A to its power set P(A). For this subset B of A, there exists an element y is a member of A such that $(y)=B.
Where is y? is y a member of B ? or is y is not a member of B? in both cases we will obtain a contradiction. Therefore, our earlier claim that there is a bijection between A and its power set P(A) is false.
