Creating a PR so GitHub doesn’t yell at me that I should make one. Also it can "focus" discussion about this branch.

TODO (incomplete):

  • What was the goal of this file/branch again? Structure/split the file accordingly.
  • Move things out of EuclideanSpaces.v that don't belong there. Among them: DiscreteTopology, seqr, seqr_spec, some facts about lists

@Columbus240 Columbus240 force-pushed the WIP_EuclideanSpaces branch 2 times, most recently from 3508fc3 to 6b24418 Compare February 7, 2021 14:02

Maybe this would be good for #29 as well

Maybe we should first "stabilize" this branch on euclidean spaces, before doing a lot of work on manifolds #29. I consider my work here very ad-hoc and not very well structured. Names and formatting could be improved, I think. Maybe the definitions could be improved as well.
The changes you (@siraben) added to EuclideanSpaces.v could be moved from branch #30 to here.

Unrelated to manifolds: The theorem that all norms on ℝ^n generate the same topology would be nice to have. By using the basis of open-balls, it suffices to show that there exist C, c ∈ ℝ such that C ||x|| ≥ |x| ≥ c ||x||, if || . || is the euclidean norm and | . | is some other norm (or reversed). From this the general statement follows quickly.

This depends on coq v8.16 and is not usable on lower versions.

Relevant issues and PRs from the coq repo:

Formalize Eucl.Spaces using `R∞`
This way, we have the following benefits:
* All vectors of euclidean spaces use the same operations and live in
the same type. They are inter-compatible.
* We don't have to deal with the difficult induction schemes of
`Vector.t` or have to prove preservation of length for list operations.
* We also get a canonical (with respect to this library) instance of the
`ℝ^ℕ` topology.

Further stuff:
* Prove continuity of `Rinfty_add`, `Rinfty_scale`, `Rn_projection`,
`Rinfty_scalarproduct`.
* Linear subspaces have to be nonempty, thus include zero.
* Some proofs. Including: a linear combination stays inside the
subspace its vectors come from. A linear combination can be reduced to a
list without repetitions of vectors. The unit vectors are linearly
independent.
