upper/lower bound
a∈Ra \in \mathbb{R}a∈R is an upper (resp. lower ) bound of S if x ≤ a (resp. x ≥ a) holds for all x ∈ S. The upper and lower bounds are not unique.
Maximum/minimum
The maximum (resp. minimum) of S denoted by max S (resp. min S) is an upper (resp. lower) bound of S which is contained in S
Supremum/infimum
The supremum Sup S (resp. infimum Inf S) is the smallest upper bound (resp. largest lower bound), if it exists at all.
Infimum axiom
Each non-empty subset of R+∗\mathbb{R}^*_+R+∗ admits an infimum
bounded set
If S has an upper/lower bound then it is called bounded from above/from below. If S is bounded both from above and below, then it is called bounded.
