Every lingering sequence has a convergent subsequence/Statement
From Maths
Statement
Let [ilmath](X,d)[/ilmath] be a metric space, then[1]:
- [math]\forall(x_n)_{n=1}^\infty\subseteq X\left[\left(\exists x\in X\ \forall\epsilon>0[\vert B_\epsilon(x)\cap(x_n)_{n=1}^\infty\vert=\aleph_0]\right)\implies\left(\exists(k_n)_{n=1}^\infty\subseteq\mathbb{N}\left[(\forall n\in\mathbb{N}[k_n<k_{n+1}])\implies\left(\exists x'\in X\left[\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}(x_{k_n})=x'\right]\right)\right]\right)\right][/math]
This is just a verbose way of expressing the statement that:
- Given a sequence [ilmath](x_n)_{n=1}^\infty\subseteq X[/ilmath] if it is a lingering sequence then it has a subsequence that converges
