https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagram%20%28category%20theory%29 | In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a diagram is the categorical analogue of an indexed family in set theory. The primary difference is that in the categorical setting one has morphisms that also need indexing. An indexed family of sets is a collection of sets, indexed by a fixed set; equivalently, a function ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suslin%20cardinal | In mathematics, a cardinal λ < Θ is a Suslin cardinal if there exists a set P ⊂ 2ω such that P is λ-Suslin but P is not λ'-Suslin for any λ' < λ. It is named after the Russian mathematician
Mikhail Yakovlevich Suslin (1894–1919).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suslin%20representation | In mathematics, a Suslin representation of a set of reals (more precisely, elements of Baire space) is a tree whose projection is that set of reals. More generally, a subset A of κω is λ-Suslin if there is a tree T on κ × λ such that A = p[T].
By a tree on κ × λ we mean here a subset T of the union of κi × λi for all... |
