Every bounded infinite subset of R^k has a limit point

A bounded infinite set in Euclidean space has an accumulation point
Every bounded infinite subset of R^k has a limit point

Corollary (Bolzano–Weierstrass, set form): Let ERkE\subseteq\mathbb{R}^k be and infinite. Then EE has a ; i.e., there exists xRkx\in\mathbb{R}^k such that every ball B(x,ε)B(x,\varepsilon) contains a point of EE different from xx (indeed, infinitely many points of EE).

This is the set-theoretic form of and is a key phenomenon: boundedness plus infinitude forces clustering.

Connection to parent theorem: Choose a sequence of distinct points in EE. By Bolzano–Weierstrass, it has a . The subsequential limit is a limit point of EE.
