Starting Context



Target Context


  • The reader will have a description and a proof of the proposition that for any \(2\) sequences with any same domain on any linearly-ordered set that have any limits superior, if the latter sequence is equal to or larger than the former sequence, the latter limit superior is equal to or larger than the former limit superior.

Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(J\): \(\subseteq \mathbb{N}\), such that \(J \neq \emptyset\)
\(S\): \(\in \{\text{ the linearly-ordered sets }\}\) with any linear ordering, \(\lt\)
\(s_1\): \(: J \to S\), such that \(\exists lim sup s_1\)
\(s_2\): \(: J \to S\), such that \(\exists lim sup s_2\)
//

Statements:
\(\forall j \in J (s_1 (j) \le s_2 (j))\)
\(\implies\)
\(lim sup s_1 \le lim sup s_2\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: deal with the case that \(J\) is finite, and suppose otherwise, thereafter; Step 2: see that \(Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert m \le n\}) \le Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert m \le n\})\); Step 3: see that \(Inf (\{Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert m \le n\})\}) \le Inf (\{Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert m \le n\})\})\).

Step 1:

When \(\vert J \vert = n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\), \(lim sup s_1 = s_1 (J_n) \le s_2 (J_n) = lim sup s_2\).

Let us suppose otherwise, hereafter.

Step 2:

\(Ub (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \subseteq Ub (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\), because for each \(s \in Ub (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\), for each \(n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\) such that \(m \le n\), \(s_2 (J_n) \le s\), so, \(s_1 (J_n) \le s\), so, \(s \in Ub (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\).

So, \(Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) = Min (Ub (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})) \le Min (Ub (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})) = Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\), by the proposition that for any partially-ordered set and any subset, if the minimum of the subset exists, the minimum is the infimum of the subset, and if the maximum of the subset exists, the maximum is the supremum of the subset and the proposition that for any partially-ordered set, any subset, and any subset of the subset, if the infimum of the subset and the infimum of the subset of the subset exist, the infimum of the subset is equal to or smaller than the infimum of the subset of the subset, and if the supremum of the subset and the supremum of the subset of the subset exist, the supremum of the subset is equal to or larger than the supremum of the subset of the subset.

Step 3:

\(Lb (\{Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\}) \subseteq Lb (\{Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\})\), because for each \(s \in Lb (\{Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\})\), \(s \le Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\) for each \(m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\), so, \(s \le Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \le Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\})\), by Step 2, so, \(s \in Lb (\{Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\})\).

\(lim sup s_1 = Inf (\{Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\}) = Max (Lb (\{Sup (\{s_1 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\})) \le Max (Lb (\{Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\})) = Inf (\{Sup (\{s_2 (J_n) \vert n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\} \text{ such that } m \le n\}) \vert m \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}\}) = lim sup s_2\), by the proposition that for any partially-ordered set and any subset, if the minimum of the subset exists, the minimum is the infimum of the subset, and if the maximum of the subset exists, the maximum is the supremum of the subset and the proposition that for any partially-ordered set, any subset, and any subset of the subset, if the infimum of the subset and the infimum of the subset of the subset exist, the infimum of the subset is equal to or smaller than the infimum of the subset of the subset, and if the supremum of the subset and the supremum of the subset of the subset exist, the supremum of the subset is equal to or larger than the supremum of the subset of the subset.
