Sequential compacts in metric spaces #

In this file we prove 2 versions of Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem for proper metric spaces.

theorem tendsto_subseq_of_frequently_bounded {X : Type u_1} [PseudoMetricSpace X] [ProperSpace X] {s : Set X} (hs : Bornology.IsBounded s) {x : X} (hx : ∃ᶠ (n : ) in Filter.atTop, x n s) :
aclosure s, ∃ (φ : ), StrictMono φ Filter.Tendsto (x φ) Filter.atTop (nhds a)

A version of Bolzano-Weierstrass: in a proper metric space (eg. $ℝ^n$), every bounded sequence has a converging subsequence. This version assumes only that the sequence is frequently in some bounded set.

theorem tendsto_subseq_of_bounded {X : Type u_1} [PseudoMetricSpace X] [ProperSpace X] {s : Set X} (hs : Bornology.IsBounded s) {x : X} (hx : ∀ (n : ), x n s) :
aclosure s, ∃ (φ : ), StrictMono φ Filter.Tendsto (x φ) Filter.atTop (nhds a)

A version of Bolzano-Weierstrass: in a proper metric space (eg. $ℝ^n$), every bounded sequence has a converging subsequence.
