Some of you probably are familiar with `My Favorite Things', a famous jazz standard. One day, inspired by contemplating a particularly nice non-measurable set I wrote a mathematical version of the song.


Complex plane, integers, rationals, reals,
Polynomials and all their ideals,
Non-measurable functions and σ-rings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Finite subcovers and local compactness,
Erdős cardinals and extreme completeness,
β-reduction and director strings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Darboux theorem and Lipschitz condition,
p-adic numbers and Markov partition,
Algorithms for finding graph colorings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the proof fails,
When the bee stings,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad.


Am I nuts already?
