    Предположим, что y ∈Y и y' ∈ Y. Свойство аддитивности требует, чтобы y + y' ∈ Y. Короче говоря, Y + Y ⊂ Y. Отсюда следует, например, что ky ∈ Y для любого положительного целого числа k. — Suppose that y ∈ Y and y' ∈ Y. The additivity property requires that y + y' ∈ Y. More succinctly, Y + Y ⊂ Y.
