Quick notation+statement verification

In summary, the conversation is about whether the statement that for any k in the range [a,b] where a, b, and k are all rational numbers, there exists a positive value of epsilon such that for any n natural numbers, the set of k values minus a is a subset of epsilon multiplied by the set of integers from 0 to the largest integer less than or equal to (b-a)/epsilon. This statement can be simplified to the question of whether for any subset of rational numbers with at least two elements, there exists a positive value of epsilon such that the subset is a subset of epsilon multiplied by the set of integers from 0 to the largest integer less than or equal to the difference between the largest and smallest elements of

Do you agree that, [tex] \forall k \in \left[ {a,b} \right]\;{\text{where}}\;\left( {a,b,k} \right) \in \mathbb{Q}^3 [/tex],
[tex] \exists \,\varepsilon > 0{\text{ such that}}\;\forall n \in \mathbb{N},\;\left( {\left\{ {k_1 ,k_2 , \ldots ,k_n } \right\} - a} \right) \subseteq \varepsilon \left\{ {0,1,2, \ldots ,\left\lfloor {\frac{{b - a}}{\varepsilon }} \right\rfloor } \right\} [/tex]

i don't think it makes sense until you say what the k_n are. don't bother with the symbols just write it in english.

Sorry:redface:; the whole mess seems to simplify down to this statement:

[tex] \forall \left\{ {k_1 ,k_2 , \ldots ,k_n } \right\} \subset \mathbb{Q}\;{\text{where }}k_1 < k_2 < \ldots < k_n , [/tex]
[tex] \exists \,\varepsilon > 0\;{\text{such that}}\;\forall n \in \mathbb{N},\;\left\{ {k_1 ,k_2 , \ldots ,k_n } \right\} \subseteq \varepsilon \left\{ {0,1,2, \ldots ,\left\lfloor {\frac{{k_n - k_1 }}
{\varepsilon }} \right\rfloor } \right\} [/tex]

FAQ: Quick notation+statement verification

1. What is quick notation?

Quick notation is a method of representing mathematical or scientific notation in a simplified and concise way. It is often used for calculations or equations that involve large numbers or complex formulas.

2. How does quick notation work?

Quick notation typically involves using shorthand symbols or abbreviations to represent longer mathematical expressions. For example, instead of writing out "10,000," quick notation may use "10k" to represent the same value.

3. What is statement verification in relation to quick notation?

Statement verification is the process of checking the accuracy and validity of a given statement or equation. In the context of quick notation, it involves verifying that the shorthand symbols used accurately represent the intended mathematical expression.

4. Is quick notation always accurate?

Quick notation is only as accurate as the equations or statements it represents. If the original equations are accurate, then the quick notation should also be accurate. However, mistakes can still occur, so it is important to double-check the notation for accuracy.

5. Are there any limitations to using quick notation?

Quick notation may not be suitable for all types of mathematical or scientific calculations. It is best used for simple or repetitive equations, and may not be appropriate for more complex calculations. Additionally, quick notation may not be universally understood, so it is important to ensure that all parties involved understand the notation being used.
