Trichotomy

A trichotomy can refer to: Law of trichotomy, a mathematical law that every real number is either positive, negative, or zero Trichotomy theorem, in finite group theory Trichotomy (jazz trio), Australian jazz band, collaborators with Danny Widdicombe on a 2019 album Trichotomy (philosophy), series wikipedia.org

Trichotomy (philosophy)

A trichotomy is a three-way classificatory division. Some philosophers pursued trichotomies. Kant also adapted the Thomistic acts of intellect in his trichotomy of higher cognition—(a) understanding, (b) judgment, (c) reason—which he correlated wikipedia.org

Not necessarily. Let $$ is also a strict linear order and hence trichtomous, but the intersection of these is is the empty relation, which is not trichotomous.

Assume $A\notin B$, $B\notin A$ and $A\neq B$. By symmetry we can assume that there is $C_1\in B\setminus A$. Then $C_1\subset B$, $A\notin C_1$, $C_1\notin A$ and $C_1\neq A$. Repeat the same argument with $A$ and $C_1$ to get a $C_2\in$ either $A\setminus C_1$ or $C_1\setminus A$. You find an infi...

Law of trichotomy

In mathematics, the law of trichotomy states that every real number is either positive, negative, or zero. Trichotomy on numbers A law of trichotomy on some set X of numbers usually expresses that some tacitly given ordering relation on X is a trichotomous one wikipedia.org

If $P\subset \mathbb R$ is the set of positive numbers then ($P$ is closed under addition ansd multiplication and) $\mathbb R$ is the disjoint union of $P$ , $\\{0\\}$, and $-P$, that is for each $a$, either $a=0$ or $a\in P$ or $a\in -P$ and the latter just means that $a$ is negative and th epositi...

Can we prove $\frac{1}{2}$ is positive? It is well known that we can prove $1>0$ using trichotomy properties of $\mathbb{R}$. Can we prove $\frac{1}{2}>0$ using trichotomy properties of $\mathbb{R}$? Any help would ...

Here is a roundabout proof. First prove that any nonzero real number squared is positive. This can be shown easily by taking two cases: squaring a positive number and showing it's positive, and squaring a negative number and showing it's positive. Once you have done this, note that $1/4 = (1/2)^2$ s...

Infimum of a set > If $a$ is a positive number, show that $\inf \\{a/n: n \in \mathbb{Z}^{+} \\} = 0$. So let $A = \\{a/n: n \in \mathbb{Z}^{+} \\}$. Then $A$ is bounded below by $0$. Hence $\alpha = \inf(A)$ exists...

Your argument seems fine to me, however the wording is a bit strange. (See Arturo's comment). Here is an alternative: (It is not better or worse, just different) We know $0\leq \alpha=\inf \\{ a/n:\ n\in\mathbb{Z} \\}$. Suppose $\alpha>0$. Then choose $N\in\mathbb{Z}$ so large that $\frac{a}{N}\frac...

Consider the language that has propositional variables $p_{x,y}$ for any pair $x,y\in X$. It will effectively stand for $x<y$. Now, our theory $T$ will be the combination of these three theories: 1. $\lnot p_{x,x}$ for all $x\in X$; 2. $p_{x,y}\lor p_{y,x}$ for all $x\neq y$; and 3. $p_{x,y}\land p_...

You have for **all** $\epsilon > 0$ that $0 \leq a 0$ (that is assume that $a\neq 0$). What happens when $\epsilon = \frac{a}{2}$?
