In mathematics, an accumulation point is a point such that every neighbourhood of the point contains at least one point in a given set other than the given point.

In Calculus what is an accumulation point?

An accumulation point, or limit point, for a set S is a point x (not necessarily in S) such that any open set containing x also contains a point (distinct from x) that's in S. More intuitively, it means that by choosing points in S, we can get as close as we want to x without actually reaching it. For example, consider the set S={1,1/2,1/3,1/4,...} (in the real numbers). 0 is an accumulation point for S, because any open set containing 0 would have to contain all between 0 and some ε>0, which would include a point (actually, an infinite amount of points) in S. But 1/5, for example, is not an accumulation point for S, because we can take the open interval (11/60,9/40) which doesn't contain any points in S other than 1/5. Not all sets have an accumulation point. For example, any set of a finite amount of real numbers can't have an accumulation point. Another example of a set without an accumulation point is the integers (as a subset of the real numbers). However, over the real numbers, any bounded infinite set has an accumulation point. In a general topological space, any infinite subset of a compact set has an accumulation point.


What is the accumulation point of irrational points?

An accumulation point of a set is a point where every neighborhood contains at least one point from the set other than itself. For the set of irrational numbers, every real number (rational or irrational) is an accumulation point. This is because between any two real numbers, no matter how close, there are infinitely many irrational numbers, ensuring that any neighborhood around a real number contains irrational points.


How do you prove that a finite set of points cannot have any accumulation points in a complex analysis?

Complex analysis is a metric space so neighborhoods can be described as open balls. Proof follows a. Assume that the set has an accumulation point call it P. b. An accumulation point is defined as a point in which every neighborhood (open ball) around P contains a point in the set other than P. c. Since P is an accumulation point, I can choose an open ball around P that has a diameter less than the minimum distance between P and all elements of the finite set. Therefore there exists a neighbor hood around P which contains only P. Therefore P is not an accumulation point.

What is the Law of Accumulation and what is the problem that arises from it according to Adam Smith?

The Law of Accumulation is the law that a business will try to accumulate unused wealth for more profit. The problem that comes from it is that eventually accumulation leads to the point when no more can be accumulated, because for more accumulation there need to be more workers, to hire more workers you would need more money. This raises the amount of money given to workers in wages higher and higher, until the accumulation the wages get drawn from disappears.


What is The line dividing the zone of accumulation from the zone of ablation on a valley glaciers is called?

The line dividing the zone of accumulation from the zone of ablation on a valley glacier is called the equilibrium line. This line marks the point where accumulation (snowfall) equals ablation (melting and sublimation), influencing the glacier's overall mass balance and movement.
