There are thus two mutually exclusive infinites, which is impossible.

Moreover Oresme shows that cases can be conceived in which two infinites can be regarded as unequal, but this unequality is not to be understood in the sense of

Oresme demonstrates by thought experiments that of two actual infinites neither is bigger or smaller than the other.

Nicole Oresme Kirschner, Stefan 2009

Oresme was not the first to use the principle of one-to-one correspondence in discussing the proporties of actual infinites.

Unlike Bradwardine, Oresme shows that of two actual infinites neither is greater or smaller than the other.

Nicole Oresme Kirschner, Stefan 2009

This result is different from Bradwardine's, because Oresme's result does not necessarily imply equality between actual infinites.

Nicole Oresme Kirschner, Stefan 2009

Since comparable quantities are either equal to one another or one is smaller or greater than the other, Oresme concludes that actual infinites are incomparable: that is, that notions like ˜smaller™, ˜bigger™, and

Are not these two infinites (what an alarming plural!) superposed, the one upon the other?
