ARCHIMEDEAN

[ˏɑːkɪ`miːdjən]

архимедов

Archimedean: translation

(mathematical) A number series is Archimedean if:

(∀x )(∀y )(∃n)(0 < x < y → y < n x ) Well-behaved numbers are Archimedean: take any two numbers, however far apart they are, then there is some number that you can multiply the smaller by to give a result greater than the larger. Non-standard analysis introduces infinitesimals of which this is not true.
