A lemma is a proven statement used as a tool to prove another statement. There is no restriction on its size.
A Hypothesis is something that you set out to test to prove or disprove. A Lemma is something that has already been proved that you use to help prove something else.
To use the pumping lemma to prove that a language is not regular, you would assume the language is regular and then show that there is a string in the language that cannot be "pumped" according to the lemma's conditions. This contradiction would indicate that the language is not regular.
Used to prove uniqueness of solutions in ODE problems
Theorem: A mathematical statement that is proved using rigorous mathematical reasoning. In a mathematical paper, the term theorem is often reserved for the most important results. Lemma: A minor result whose sole purpose is to help in proving a theorem. It is a stepping stone on the path to prove a theorem. The distinction is rather arbitrary since one mathematician's major is another's minor claim. Very occasionally lemmas can take on a life of their own (Zorn's lemma, Urysohn's lemma, Burnside's lemma, Sperner's lemma).
Yes, the pumping lemma is a tool used in formal language theory to prove that a language is not regular. It involves showing that for any regular language, there exists a string that can be "pumped" to generate additional strings that are not in the language, thus demonstrating that the language is not regular.
This usually means the upcoming lemma is an adaption of a previous lemma to a mathematical object related to the one in the first lemma.
The keyword "pumping lemma" can be used to prove that a language is regular by showing that any sufficiently long string in the language can be divided into parts that can be repeated or "pumped" to create more strings in the language. If this property holds true for a language, it indicates that the language is regular.
The plural of "lemma" is "lemmas" or "lemmata".
An example of a lemma in mathematics is the triangle inequality, which states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. Lemmas are used as stepping stones to prove more complex theorems.
The pumping lemma is a tool used in formal language theory to show that a language is not context-free. It works by demonstrating that certain strings in the language cannot be broken down into smaller parts in a way that satisfies the rules of a context-free grammar. If a language fails the conditions of the pumping lemma, it is not context-free.
