let n be Nat; for a, b being Element of REAL n st b < a & not n is zero holds
ClosedHyperInterval (a,b) is empty
let a, b be Element of REAL n; ( b < a & not n is zero implies ClosedHyperInterval (a,b) is empty )
assume that
A1:
b < a
and
A2:
not n is zero
; ClosedHyperInterval (a,b) is empty
assume
not ClosedHyperInterval (a,b) is empty
; contradiction
then consider x being object such that
A3:
x in ClosedHyperInterval (a,b)
;
consider y being Element of REAL n such that
x = y
and
A4:
for i being Nat st i in Seg n holds
y . i in [.(a . i),(b . i).]
by A3, Def3;
1 <= n
by A2, NAT_1:14;
then
( b . 1 < a . 1 & y . 1 in [.(a . 1),(b . 1).] )
by A1, A4, FINSEQ_1:1;
hence
contradiction
