Definition:Set Intersection/Family of Sets/Subsets of General Set

Definition
Let $I$ be an indexing set. Let $\left \langle {S_i} \right \rangle_{i \mathop \in I}$ be a family of subsets of a set $X$.

Then the intersection of $\left \langle {S_i} \right \rangle$ is defined as:


 * $\displaystyle \bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} S_i = \left\{{x \in X: \exists i \in I: x \in S_i}\right\}$

Also denoted as
The set $\displaystyle \bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} S_i$ can also be seen denoted as:


 * $\displaystyle \bigcap_I S_i$

or, if the indexing set is clear from context:


 * $\displaystyle \bigcap_i S_i$

However, on this website it is recommended that the full form is used.
