Galileo's paradox is a demonstration of one of the surprising properties of infinite sets. In his final scientific work, Two New Sciences, Galileo Galilei made apparently contradictory statements about the positive integers. First, some numbers are squares, while others are not; therefore, all the numbers, including both squares and non-squares, must be more numerous than just the squares. And yet, for every number there is exactly one square; hence, there cannot be more of one than of the other. This is an early use, though not the first, of the idea of one-to-one correspondence in the context of infinite sets.
Do As Infinity is a Japanese pop and rock band that formed in 1999 with three members: vocalist Tomiko Van, guitarist Ryo Owatari, and guitarist and composer Dai Nagao. The band's name is sometimes abbreviated as DAI, alluding to the fact that Do As Infinity was named after Nagao. Signed to Avex Trax, the band released their debut single "Tangerine Dream" on September 29, 1999, followed by three more singles between 1999 and 2000, which appeared on their debut album Break of Dawn (2000). In December 2000, Nagao decided to devote all his time to composing the music and no longer appeared at live events. Five more studio albums were released between 2001 with New World and 2005 with Need Your Love.
Gord the Rogue is the protagonist in a series of fantasy novels and short stories written by Gary Gygax. Gygax originally wrote the novels and short stories to promote his World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game. After he left TSR, Gygax continued to write Gord the Rogue novels for several years. In all of these works, the plot revolves around the adventures of a young man named Gord who rises from humble origins in the slums of a large city on the planet Oerth to become a powerful force trying to stave off the takeover of Oerth by demons.
Live in Japan is Do as Infinity's second live album, as well as a concert DVD.

"Mahou no Kotoba " is the fifteenth single by Do As Infinity, released in 2003. Two versions of the single were released, a limited CD+DVD edition and a normal CD edition, each version with a different cover. It was used as the theme song for the 2003 Japanese drama Chocolat. Due to the extremely high popularity and marriage based theme of the A-side track "Mahou no Kotoba ", the song became one of the most requested wedding songs in Japan.
"Under the Sun" and "Under the Moon" are songs on the double-A side thirteenth single by Do As Infinity, released in 2002. The second A-side of this single, "Under the Moon", which is an extension song to "Under the Sun", was not included in the True Song album. The song "Under the Sun" was used in games and anime, and included on the Do As Infinity Anime and Game Collection compilation album (2015). Both songs were written by guitarist Dai Nagao who also wrote many of the band's hit songs, including Yō no ataru sakamichi and Shinjitsu no uta. The song "Under the Sun" is sung in Japanese with English phrases. The lyrics begin: "'I walk under the sun 太陽とダンス 変わってく, 予感 いいんじゃない？ ".
"Fukai Mori" is the tenth single by Do As Infinity, released on June 27, 2001. It is the band's best selling single in Japan. The song is used as the second ending theme for the anime Inuyasha.

Do the Best "Great Supporters Selection" is a fan-selected collection chosen through an online poll held by avex trax on Do As Infinity's official site after its disbanding. It was released among five other different Do As Infinity items on the same day. Fans were allowed to pick ten songs and a choice to leave comments; many fans from overseas also took part in the process, but only three comments from overseas fans were selected to be printed into the book, one each from Canada, United States, and Taiwan. All the names of the voters were printed in the book however. This two-disc album comprised thirty songs out of the eighty-six total Do As Infinity songs ; surprisingly, not all of the band's A-sides were included in the album. The cover of the album lists the titles of the 86 songs that Do As Infinity has written so far in no particular order. There are no pictures of Do As Infinity included in the album at all.
Do the Box is Do As Infinity's album box set after its disbanding. 10,000 copies were made, and each box has its own number printed on itself. It was released among five other different Do As Infinity items on the same day. The box included the six studio albums the band had previously released, as well as a bonus DVD named Do The Works. Do The Works contained two sections: the first one was a documentary of Do As Infinity's activities over the six years they were active, and the second section compiled the commercials for all of their CDs, starting from their debut single, "Tangerine Dream" up to Do the A-side.
Minus V is an instrumental collection by Do As Infinity released after its disbanding. It was released among five other different Do As Infinity items on the same day. This CD consists of mostly previously unreleased instrumental versions of Do As Infinity's songs. The "V" in name of the album is speculated to be the short for Tomiko Van, the lead singer of the band, or vocal because there aren't any of Tomiko Van's vocals in the CD.
Do As Infinity: Final is the last live-recorded concert of Japanese band Do As Infinity before they disbanded in 2005. It took place in Budokan on November 25, 2005. The third disc contains bonus tracks featuring various live recorded songs from Do As Infinity's past live shows.
The discography of Do As Infinity, a J-pop and rock band formed in Aoyama, Tokyo, Japan, consists of 13 studio albums, 5 live albums, 10 compilation albums, 31 singles, 19 video releases, and 39 music videos. Composer Dai Nagao of Avex Trax hosted auditions for a band in 1999, eventually choosing Tomiko Van as lead vocalist and Ryo Owatari as guitarist. The trio released their first single "Tangerine Dream" in 1999 and released three more singles between 1999 and 2000 which appeared on their debut album Break of Dawn (2000). Break of Dawn did well commercially, peaking at No. 3 on the Japanese Oricon albums chart. In December 2000, Nagao decided to devote all his time to composing the music and no longer appeared at live events. Do As Infinity's next two studio albums released in 2001, New World and Deep Forest, both peaked at No. 1 on Oricon. The band released their first greatest hits compilation album Do the Best in 2002, which also charted at No. 1.
