TauCeti.Order.Filter.Cofinite.Seq

Enumerating a cofinitely convergent countable family by a sequence #

A countable family g : ι → α tending to a filter l along the cofinite filter can be listed, with padding, as a sequence ℕ → α tending to l along atTop. The padding is a point b lying in every member of l, such as the limit a when l = 𝓝 a. This turns a countable set whose points outside each neighbourhood of a are finitely many into a sequence converging to a, which is how null sequences are assembled from countably many finite sets.

A countable family tending to l along the cofinite filter is part of a sequence tending to l, padded by a point b lying in every member of l.
