Cauchy criterion for a function limit
ID: cauchy-criterion-for-a-function-limit
For a function into a complete metric space, the displayed pairwise condition is equivalent to existence of a limit as . Necessity follows from the triangle inequality. For sufficiency, the values form a Cauchy sequence, hence converge to some . Given , use the pairwise condition with and then send in . This gives for every sufficiently small positive .
