Let be a dense integral subdomain of therational numbers and let and let be the positive terms of .
A net is a -Cauchy approximation if
be the positive rational numbers.
Every A net - is aCauchy approximationCauchy approximation is if a Cauchy net indexed by. This is because is a strictly ordered type, and thus a directed type and a strictly codirected type, with defined as for and . is defined as .
