The concept of infinity can be understood from both mathematical and philosophical aspects. Infinity is definable as everything that has no limits, coming from the Latin word infinite, or that has no end. The concept of infinity is undoubtedly a concept of great complexity Y abstraction since nothing of what we know in our daily life can be considered as such.
The human being treaty throughout its history define the notion of infinity with regard to philosophical questions and math. In this sense, both aspects of the concept come together when it is understood as an abstraction. Infinity represents in all cases that which has neither beginning nor an end, which is a permanent continuum in whose development no end point can be determined.
The concept of infinity is for many cultures and civilizations related to that of life itself. that the existence of living beings is represented from the eternal cycle of birth, development and death, especially for the religions and cultures that sustain their
belief in life beyond death. At the same time, infinity can be represented by outer space, of which no limit is yet known and which appears as an immeasurable space in the eyes of humans.Infinity is always represented by the symbol similar to the eight (8) in which it becomes visible as there is no starting or ending point and as everything that happens within that space marked by the line is destined to continue circulating in it in a permanent.
Finally, it can be said that the concept of infinity applies to the fields of mathematics, physics and other sciences. In them, the approach to infinity has to watch with abstraction and with the attempt to explain abstract phenomena that represent it (such as periodic numbers, among others).
