Convergence of a sequence to a point and convergence of a sequence in a metric space, with the space, the metric, the sequence and the point as variables, are each expressed by a predicative formula at any variable positions; for a fixed metric space, the sequences converging to a given point and the convergent sequences form classes.
In the setting of Routine Facts, Continued: Typed Arithmetic, Maps and Predicativity, let be a metatheoretic number, let be distinct set variables, and let , not necessarily distinct. A condition on is predicative if it is expressed by a predicative formula, with in place of the set variables listed in Conditions Expressed by a Predicative Formula, and Guards (i) and no displayed variables; , , the order , the strict order , the addition and the element of are parameters. Metric spaces are as in Metric Space (vi), sequences as in Sequences (i), and convergence to a point and convergent sequences as in Convergent Sequence in a Metric Space (i) and Convergent Sequence in a Metric Space (ii). In the first two clauses and .
Convergence. The condition " is a metric space, is a sequence in , , and converges to in " on is predicative.
Convergent sequences. The condition " is a metric space and is a sequence in that is convergent in " on is predicative.
The class of sequences converging to a point. For every metric space and every there is a class such that, for every class , if and only if is a sequence in that converges to in .
