Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(F\): \(\in \{\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}\}\), with the canonical field structure
\(V_1\): \(\in \{\text{ the } F \text{ normed vectors spaces }\}\), with the metric induced by the norm
\(V_2\): \(\in \{\text{ the } F \text{ normed vectors spaces }\}\), with the metric induced by the norm
\(f\): \(: V_1 \to V_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the linear 'normed vectors space' isometries }\}\)
\(s\): \(: \mathbb{N} \to V_1\), \(\in \{\text{ the Cauchy sequences }\}\)
\(f \circ s\): \(: \mathbb{N} \to V_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the sequences }\}\)
//

Statements:
\(f \circ s \in \{\text{ the Cauchy sequences }\}\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: see that \(f \circ s\) satisfies the conditions to be a Cauchy sequence.

Step 1:

Let \(\epsilon \in \mathbb{R}\) be any such that \(0 \lt \epsilon\).

There is an \(N \in \mathbb{N}\) such that for each \(m, n \in \mathbb{N}\) such that \(N \lt m, n\), \(dist (s (n), s (m)) = \Vert s (n) - s (m) \Vert \lt \epsilon\).

\(dist (f \circ s (n), f \circ s (m)) = \Vert f \circ s (n) - f \circ s (m) \Vert = \Vert f (s (n) - s (m)) \Vert\), because \(f\) is linear, \(= \Vert s (n) - s (m) \Vert\), because \(f\) is a 'normed vectors space' isometry, \(\lt \epsilon\).

So, \(f \circ s\) satisfies the conditions to be a Cauchy sequence.
