The term “rigid set” appears often in the literature in different contexts and with different meanings. In many cases the notions are unrelated, while in other they refer to related facts. Here we study infinite sets which are rigid according to [2] and analyse the relationship with the notion of rigidity used in [1]. We make several remarks, summarise different results in the area and prove a few new results.
