left-cancellative ordinal between infinite and finite ordernals [closed]
$begingroup$
I am trying to prove that for any n,m∈N, ω*2+n=ω*2+m iff n=m.
proving it assuming m=n is easy, cannot prove the other direction
set-theory ordinals

Have you tried induction on $n$?

how can you do induction on n when you also need to take care of m ?

Prove by induction on $n$ that for all $m$, if $omegacdot 2+n=omegacdot 2+m$, then $n=m$.
