, CHAPTER 1
THE REAL NUMBERS
1.1 THE REAL NUMBER SYSTEM


l.l.l. Note that |a — b| = max(a, b) — min(a, b).
(a) a + b + |a — b| = a + b + max(a, b) — min(a, b) = 2 max(a, b).
(b) a + b — |a — b| = a + b — max(a, b) + min(a, b) = 2 min(a, b).
(c) Let a = a+b+2c +|a—b |+ˇa +b—2c +|a—b|ˇ. From (a), a = 2 [max(a, b) + c + |max(a, b) —c |] =df
β. From (a) with a and b replaced by max(a, b) and c, β 4 max (max(a, b), c)
4 max(a, b, c).
(d) Let a a b 2c a b ˇa b 2c a b ˇ. From (b), a 2 [min(a, b) c min(a, b) c ] df
β. From (a) with a and b replaced by min(a, b) and c, β 4 min (min(a, b), c)
4 min(a, b, c).
l.l.2. First verify axioms A-E:
Axiom A. See Eqns. (1.1.1) and (1.1.2).
Axiom B. If a 0 then (a b) c b c and a(b c) bc, so (a b)
c a (b c). Similar arguments apply if b 0 or c 0. The remaining case is
a b c l. Since (l l) l 0 l l and l (l l) l 0 l, addition
is associative. Since
0, unless a = b = c = l,
(ab)c a(bc)
l, if a = b = c = l,
multiplication is associative.
Axiom C. Since
0, if a = 0,
a(b c) ab ac
b + c, if a = l,
the distributive law holds.
Axiom D. Eqns. (1.1.1) and (1.1.2) imply that 0 and l have the required properties.

, Axiom E. Eqn. (1.1.1) implies that —0 = 0 and —l = l; Eqn. (1.1.2) implies that l/l = l.
To see that the field cannot be ordered suppose that 0 < l. Adding l to both sides yields
0 l < l l, or l < 0, a contradiction. On the other hand, if l < 0, then l l < 0 l,
so 0 < l, also a contradiction.
, ,
l.l.3. If 2 is rational we can write 2 = m/n, where either m is odd or n is odd. Then
so n= =
2 m is even; thus, m = 2m where m is an integer. Therefore, 4m = 2n ,
2 2 2 2
m 2 2n , so
2m and 1 1
n is also even, a contradiction.
, ,
l.l.4. If p is rational we can write p = m/n where either m or n is not divisible
by p. Then m = pn , so m is divisible by p; thus, m = pm 1 where m 1 is an integer.
2 2


Therefore, p m = pn , so n = pm and n is also divisible by p, a contradiction.

l.l.6. If S is bounded below then T is bounded above, so T has a unique supremum, by
Theorem 1.1.3. Denote sup T = —a. Then (i) if x e S then —x ≤ —a, so x ≥ a; (ii) if
‹ > 0 there is an xO e T such that —xO < —a — ‹, so xO > a + ‹. Therefore, there is
an a with properties (i) and (ii). If (i) and (ii) hold with a replaced by a1 then —a1 is a
supremum of T , so a1 = a by the uniqueness assertion of Theorem 1.1.3.
l.l.7. (a) If x e S, then inf S ≤ x ≤sup S, and the transitivity of ≤implies (A), with
equality if and only if S contains exactly one point.
(b) There are three cases: (i) If S is bounded below and unbounded above, then inf S = a
(finite) and sup S = ∞ from (13); (ii) If S is unbounded below and bounded above, then
inf S = —∞ from (14) and sup S = β (finite); (iii) If S is unbounded below and above
then sup S = ∞ from (13) and inf S = —∞ from (14). In all three cases (12) implies (A).
l.l.8. Let a = inf T and b = sup S. We first show that a = b. If a < b then a <
(a + b)/2 < b. Since b = sup S, there is an sO e S such that sO > (a + b)/2. Since
a = inf T , there is a tO e T such that tO < (a + b)/2. Therefore, tO < sO, a contradiction.
Hence a ≥ b. If a > b there is an x such that b < x < a. From the definitions of a and
b, x /e T and x /e S, a contradiction. Hence a = b. Let β = a(= b). Since a and b are
uniquely, defined so is β. If x > β then x Ø S (since β = sup S), so x e T . If x < β then
x Ø T (since β = inf T ), so x e S.
l.l.9. Every real number is in either S or T . T is nonempty because U is bounded. S is
nonempty because if u U and x < u then x S. If s S there is a u U such that
u > s, since s is not an upper bound of U . If t T then t u, since t is an upper bound
of U . Since u > s and t u, t > s. Therefore, S and T satisfy the conditions imposed
in Exercise 1.1.8, so there is a number β such that every number greater than β is an upper
bound of U and no number less that β is an upper bound of U . However, β is also an upper
bound of U (if not, there would be a uO e U such that uO > β, which is impossible, since
if uO > β then every number in (β, uO) is an upper bound of U ). Therefore, β = sup U .
l.l.l0. (a) Let a = sup S and β = sup T . If x = s + t then x ≤ a + β. If ‹ > 0 choose sO
— ‹/2 and tO > —
in S and tO in T such that sO > a β ‹/2. Then xO= sO+ tO > a+ β ‹
and a β sup(S T ) by Theorem 1.1.3. This proves (A). The proof of (B) by mean
of Theorem 1.1.8 is similar.
(b) For (A), suppose that S is not bounded above. Then sup S = sup(S + T ) = ∞. Since
sup T > —∞ if T is nonempty, (A) holds. The proof of (B) is similar.
