Real numbers from Cauchy sequences #
This file defines ℝ
as the type of equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences of rational numbers.
This choice is motivated by how easy it is to prove that ℝ
is a commutative ring, by simply
lifting everything to ℚ
.
The facts that the real numbers are an Archimedean floor ring,
and a conditionally complete linear order,
have been deferred to the file Mathlib/Data/Real/Archimedean.lean
,
in order to keep the imports here simple.
The fact that the real numbers are a (trivial) *-ring has similarly been deferred to
Mathlib/Data/Real/Star.lean
.

Extra instances to short-circuit type class resolution.
These short-circuits have an additional property of ensuring that a computable path is found; if
Field ℝ
is found first, then decaying it to these typeclasses would result in a noncomputable
version of them.

Show an underlying cauchy sequence for real numbers.
The representative chosen is the one passed in the VM to Quot.mk
, so two cauchy sequences
converging to the same number may be printed differently.
A ring homomorphism f : α →+* β
is bounded with respect to the functions nα : α → ℝ
and
nβ : β → ℝ
if there exists a positive constant C
such that for all x
in α
,
nβ (f x) ≤ C * nα x
.
