Description

On page 18 and 19 there is the term $\sigma_1...\sigma_n$. n is supposed to be any natural number including 0. My problem with this is that if n would be 0 you have the range $\sigma_1...\sigma_0$ which is not possible. On page 18 there is the same problem with i in the induction. I propose to change the start index of the sigma to 0, because a range of length 0 is still valid.

Research direction

Open lecture04.tex and inspect the notation on pages 18 and 19, including the induction passage. Check the surrounding definitions before adjusting the sigma and induction indices, then compile the lecture material and verify that the zero-length case is represented consistently.
