Dickson's lemma
In mathematics, Dickson's lemma states that every set of n-tuples of natural numbers has finitely many minimal elements. This simple fact from combinatorics has become attributed to the American algebraist L. E. Dickson, who used it to prove a result in number theory about perfect numbers.〔 However, the lemma was certainly known earlier, for example to Paul Gordan in his research on invariant theory.〔.〕
==Example==

Let K be a fixed number, and let S = \ be the set of pairs of numbers whose product is at least K. When defined over the positive real numbers, S has infinitely many minimal elements of the form (x,K/x), one for each positive number x; this set of points forms one of the branches of a hyperbola. The pairs on this hyperbola are minimal, because it is not possible for a different pair that belongs to S to be less than or equal to (x,K/x) in both of its coordinates. However, Dickson's lemma concerns only tuples of natural numbers, and over the natural numbers there are only finitely many minimal pairs. Every minimal pair (x,y) of natural numbers has x\le K and y\le K, for if ''x'' were greater than ''K'' then (''x'' −1,''y'') would also belong to ''S'', contradicting the minimality of (''x'',''y''), and symmetrically if ''y'' were greater than ''K'' then (''x'',''y'' −1) would also belong to ''S''. Therefore, over the natural numbers, S has at most K^2 minimal elements, a finite number.〔With more care, it is possible to show that one of x and y is at most \sqrt K, and that there is at most one minimal pair for each choice of one of the coordinates, from which it follows that there are at most 2\sqrt K minimal elements.〕
