Main Body
1: Structured Description
Here is the rules of Structured Description.
Entities:
\( J\): \(\subseteq \mathbb{N}\), such that \(J \neq \emptyset\)
\( R\): \(\in \{\text{ the rings }\} \cap \{\text{ the metric spaces }\}\)
\( s\): \(\in \{\text{ the sequences }\}\), such that \(Dom (s) = J\) and \(Ran (s) \subseteq R\)
\( \widetilde{s}\): \(= \sum_{j \in \{1, 2, ...\}} s_j\)
\( \widetilde{s}'\): \(: J \to R, j \mapsto \sum_{l \in \{J_1, ... , j\}} s (l)\), \(\in \{\text{ the sequences }\}\)
\(*r\): \(\in R\)
//
Conditions:
\(\widetilde{s}' \text{ converges to } r\)
//
2: Note
\(s\) is a sequence, \(\widetilde{s}\) is the series that corresponds to \(s\), and \(\widetilde{s}'\) is the sequence that corresponds to \(\widetilde{s}\), and any convergence of \(\widetilde{s}\) is the convergence of \(\widetilde{s}'\), the definition says.
\(\widetilde{s}\) does not necessarily have a convergence, because \(\widetilde{s}'\) does not necessarily have a convergence.
Any convergence, \(r\), is inevitably unique, because any convergence of any sequence on metric space is unique, as is mentioned in Note for the definition of convergence of sequence on metric space.
