2. Upper and lower bounds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_and_lower_bounds

   The set S = {42} has 42 as both an upper bound and a lower bound; all other numbers are either an upper bound or a lower bound for that S. Every subset of the natural numbers has a lower bound since the natural numbers have a least element (0 or 1, depending on convention). An infinite subset of the natural numbers cannot be bounded from above.

3. Nested intervals - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_intervals

   The construction follows a recursion by starting with any number , that is not an upper bound (e.g. =, where and an arbitrary upper bound of ). Given I n = [ a n , b n ] {\displaystyle I_{n}=[a_{n},b_{n}]} for some n ∈ N {\displaystyle n\in \mathbb {N} } one can compute the midpoint m n := a n + b n 2 {\displaystyle m_{n}:={\frac {a_{n}+b_{n ...

4. Least-upper-bound property - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least-upper-bound_property

   A real number x is called an upper bound for S if x ≥ s for all s ∈ S. A real number x is the least upper bound (or supremum) for S if x is an upper bound for S and x ≤ y for every upper bound y of S. The least-upper-bound property states that any non-empty set of real numbers that has an upper bound must have a least upper bound in real ...

5. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)

   The addition x + a on the number line. All numbers greater than x and less than x + a fall within that open interval. In mathematics, a real interval is the set of all real numbers lying between two fixed endpoints with no "gaps". Each endpoint is either a real number or positive or negative infinity, indicating the interval extends without a ...

6. Minkowski's bound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski's_bound

   Since the number of integral ideals of given norm is finite, the finiteness of the class number is an immediate consequence, [1] and further, the ideal class group is generated by the prime ideals of norm at most M K. Minkowski's bound may be used to derive a lower bound for the discriminant of a field K given n, r 1 and r 2.

7. Bound graph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bound_graph

   In graph theory, a bound graph expresses which pairs of elements of some partially ordered set have an upper bound.Rigorously, any graph G is a bound graph if there exists a partial order ≤ on the vertices of G with the property that for any vertices u and v of G, uv is an edge of G if and only if u ≠ v and there is a vertex w such that u ≤ w and v ≤ w.
