an iterated limit is a limit of a sequence or a limit of a function in the form lim m → ∞ lim n → ∞ a n , m = lim m → ∞ ( lim n → ∞ a n , m ) {\displaystyle...

This is a list of limits for common functions such as elementary functions. In this article, the terms a, b and c are constants with respect to x. lim...

special families of subsets of some given set, also provide a common framework for defining various types of limits of functions such as limits from the left/right...

and related branches, a net or Moore–Smith sequence is a function whose domain is a directed set. The codomain of this function is usually some topological...

left-right reversal of càdlàg, and càllàl for "continue à l'un, limite à l’autre" (continuous on one side, limit on the other side), for a function which at each...

mathematics, a limit point, accumulation point, or cluster point of a set S {\displaystyle S} in a topological space X {\displaystyle X} is a point x {\displaystyle...
