Chapter 2-4 Flashcards
Closed
A set B is closed if the compliment of B is open.
Interior point x
x is an interior point of A if there exists delta >0 st (x-delta,x+delta) is a subset A.
Boundary point x
x is a boundary point of A if for all delta>0 (x-delta,x+delta) contains a point in A and a point not in A.
Limit point x defn 1
If for all delta >0 (x-delta,x+delta) contains a point of A different then x.
Closure
The closure of A is the set consisting of A and its limit points.
Compact
A set B is compact if every open cover has a finite subcover.
Sequence converges
The sequence {Xn} converges to the real number L if, for all epsolong >0, there exist and N in the natural numbers st. If n is in the natural numbers and n>N, then the absolute value of Xn-L
Diverges
If {Xn} does not converge, then it diverges
Bounded
A sequence is bounded if the terms of the sequence form a bounded set.
Monotone increasing
A sequence is monotone increasing off an+1>= an for all n
Monotone decreasing
A sequence is monotone increasing off an+1
Cauchy-sequence
A sequence {Xn} is a Cauchy sequence if, given any epsolong >0, there exists N in the natural numbers st if n,m>N, then the absolute value of Xn-Xm
Limit point x part 2
X is a limit point of a set of real numbers A if for all epsolong>0, (x-epsolong,x+ epsolong) contains infinitely many point of A.
Limit of f as x approaches x knot is L
Let f be a function and x knot a limit point of the domain of f. The limit of f as x approaches x knot is L.
f is continuous at x knot
Let f be a function and x knot is in the domain of f. Then we say f is continuous at x knot if given any epsolong>0, there exists a delta>0 st if the absolute value of x-x knot
