Increasing sequences

This article page is a stub, please help by expanding it.

Sequences $\scriptstyle \{a(n)\}_{n=i_{\rm {min}}}^{i_{\rm {max}}}\,$ for which the terms belong to a totally ordered set (or linearly ordered set) and such that

$a(n+1)\geq a(n),\quad i_{\rm {min}}\leq n<i_{\rm {max}},\,$

where

$\exists k\,|\,a(k+1)>a(k),\quad i_{\rm {min}}\leq k<i_{\rm {max}}.\,$

Nonstrictly increasing sequences

Sequences $\scriptstyle \{a(n)\}_{n=i_{\rm {min}}}^{i_{\rm {max}}}\,$ for which the terms belong to a totally ordered set (or linearly ordered set) and such that

$a(n+1)\geq a(n),\quad i_{\rm {min}}\leq n<i_{\rm {max}}.\,$

Strictly increasing sequences

Sequences $\scriptstyle \{a(n)\}_{n=i_{\rm {min}}}^{i_{\rm {max}}}\,$ for which the terms belong to a totally ordered set (or linearly ordered set) and such that

$a(n+1)>a(n),\quad i_{\rm {min}}\leq n<i_{\rm {max}}.\,$
