SUMMARY

The symbol for union in this context represents the union of all subsets G of the set T, specifically the sets of ordered pairs of elements constructible from G. This union signifies the comprehensive set of all mappings (or functions) of T into itself. Understanding this concept is crucial for grasping the implications of set theory in mathematical functions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of set theory
  • Familiarity with ordered pairs
  • Knowledge of functions and mappings
  • Concept of subsets

I never understood what it means and I can't find its meaning...

It means union. In this particular case, it is the union, for all subsets G of the set T, of the sets of ordered pairs of the elements constructible from the set G.

In other words, it is the set of all mappings (of functions) of T into itself.
