Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(J\): \(\subseteq \mathbb{N}\)
\(\mathbb{R}\): \(= \text{ the Euclidean metric space }\)
\(s\): \(: J \to \mathbb{R}\), such that \(\sum_{j \in J} s (j) = r \in \mathbb{R}\)
\(r'\): \(\in \mathbb{R}\)
\(r' s\): \(: J \to \mathbb{R}, j \mapsto r' s (j)\)
//

Statements:
\(\sum_{j \in J} r' s (j) = r' r \in \mathbb{R}\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: deal with the case that \(J\) is finite and with the case that \(r' = 0\), and suppose otherwise, thereafter; Step 2: for each \(\epsilon\), take an \(N\) such that for each \(N \lt n\), \(\vert r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} s (j) \vert \lt \epsilon / \vert r' \vert\); Step 3: see that for each \(N \lt n\), \(\vert r' r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} r' s (j) \vert \lt \epsilon\).

Step 1:

When \(J\) is finite, it holds, because they are some finite operations.

Let us suppose otherwise, hereafter.

Let us suppose that \(r' = 0\).

\(\sum_{j \in J} r' s (j) = \sum_{j \in J} 0 s (j) = \sum_{j \in J} 0 = 0\).

\(r' r = 0 r = 0\).

So, \(\sum_{j \in J} r' s (j) = r' r \in \mathbb{R}\).

Let us suppose that \(r' \neq 0\) hereafter.

Step 2:

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

There is an \(N \in \mathbb{N}\) such that for each \(n \in \mathbb{N}\) such that \(N \lt n\), \(\vert r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} s (j) \vert \lt \epsilon / \vert r' \vert\), by the definition of convergence.

Step 3:

For each \(n \in \mathbb{N}\) such that \(N \lt n\), \(\vert r' r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} r' s (j) \vert = \vert r' (r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} s (j)) \vert = \vert r' \vert \vert r - \sum_{j \in \{J_1, ..., J_n\}} s (j) \vert \lt \vert r' \vert \epsilon / \vert r' \vert = \epsilon\).

That means that \(\sum_{j \in J} r' s (j) = r' r \in \mathbb{R}\).
