Cauchy Criterion in Rk
In Euclidean space, a sequence converges exactly when it is Cauchy.
Cauchy Criterion in Rk
Cauchy criterion in : Let be a sequence in , with distance measured by the Euclidean norm (equivalently, the Euclidean metric). Then converges in if and only if it is a Cauchy sequence , meaning: for every there exists such that for all , .
This is the completeness of Euclidean space, i.e. that is a complete metric space . In one dimension it is one of the standard consequences of the completeness axiom .
