I don't see the ambiguity that 'Pairwise' resolves.



Surely if A,B,C are disjoint sets then they are pairwise disjoint and vice versa?



Or am I being dim?

            If sets $A_1,A_2,dots,A_n$ are said to be disjoint then usually it is meant that the sets are pairwise disjoint. See Wolfram for instance. In the other case one says simply that the sets have an empty intersection.

            If you define "disjoint" to mean "empty intersection" (which is the standard definition) then formally for a family of sets "disjoint" would mean the intersection of the entire family is empty unless stated otherwise. The use of the pleonastic term "pairwise" helps to avoid confusion.

          More generally, sets are disjoint when their intersection is empty, but pairwise disjoint when any two of them are disjoint.

            Consider the sets $A = {1,2}$, $B = {2,3}$, $C = {3, 1}$. Then $Acap Bcap C = varnothing$, but $A,B,C$ are not pairwise disjoint.

              Let $A={1,2}, B={2,3},C={3,4}$. Then the sets are disjoint because $Acap Bcap C=emptyset$, but not pairwise disjoint because you have pairs such as $A,B$ such that $Acap Bnot =emptyset$.

              If sets $A_1,A_2,dots,A_n$ are said to be disjoint then usually it is meant that the sets are pairwise disjoint. See Wolfram for instance. In the other case one says simply that the sets have an empty intersection.

                If you define "disjoint" to mean "empty intersection" (which is the standard definition) then formally for a family of sets "disjoint" would mean the intersection of the entire family is empty unless stated otherwise. The use of the pleonastic term "pairwise" helps to avoid confusion.
