Maybe Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity#Calculus) gives 
some hints:
* In real analysis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis>, the 
symbol , called "infinity", is used to denote an unbounded limit 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function>. The notation x --> +oo 
means that x increases without bound, and x --> -oo means that x decreases 
without bound. 
* In complex analysis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_analysis> the 
symbol oo, called "infinity", denotes an unsigned infinite limit 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_(mathematics)>. x --> oo means that 
the magnitude |x| of x grows beyond any assigned value. 

Especially in the real case, we have the definition of superior limit  
limsup which can take the values -oo and +oo, see ~ limsupcl . As far as I 
know, there is nothing in set.mm corresponding to the complex case.
