  • Epsilon–delta limits

    Every prescribed output tolerance must follow from a sufficiently small nonzero input displacement.

  • Extreme value theorem

    A continuous real function on a nonempty compact set attains its maximum and minimum.

  • Bolzano–Weierstrass theorem

    Every bounded sequence in finite-dimensional Euclidean space has a convergent subsequence.

  • Cauchy sequences

    Terms of a Cauchy sequence eventually become arbitrarily close to each other.

  • Compactness

    A space is compact when every open cover admits a finite subcover.
