Word: Cauchy sequence Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Named after French mathematician Augustin-Louis Cauchy (1789–1857), who made pioneering contributions to analysis. 1. Any sequence x_n in a metric space with metric d such that for every ϵ>0 there exists a natural number N such that for all k,m>N, d(x_k,x_m)<ϵ. Example: However, it is possible to derive topological results from statements about Cauchy sequences; for example, a subset A of the space of real numbers is closed if and only if each Cauchy sequence in A converges to some point of A. Example: In the case of the real line, every Cauchy sequence converges; that is, being a Cauchy sequence is sufficient to guarantee the existence of a limit. In the general case, however, this is not so. If a metric space does have the property that every Cauchy sequence converges, the space is called a complete metric space.
