Why we can always choose $n_{k+1}>n_k$?

$begingroup$


Let $E$ is a complex inner product space and $(x_n)_{n},(y_n)_{n}subseteq E$ are unit sequences.



If we suppose that it is not true that there is a constant $c<1$ such that
$$|langle x_n|y_nrangle|leq c <1 ,$$
for all $n$ sufficiently large.



Therefore, for every positive integer $k$, the number $c_k=1-1/k$ does not satisfy
$$|langle x_n|y_nrangle|leq 1-1/k ,tag{*}$$
for all $n$ sufficiently large, which means that it is not true that there exists an $N$ such that for all $n>N$ the inequality $(*)$ is valid.



Therefore, there exists some $n_k$ such that
$$1geq |langle x_{n_k}|y_{n_k}rangle|> 1-1/k, $$
where the inequality $1geq |langle x_{n_k}|y_{n_k}rangle|$ follows from the fact that $x_n,y_n$ are unit vectors.



Hence
$$lim_{ktoinfty}|langle x_{n_k}|y_{n_k}rangle|=1.$$

          The contrapositive of the statement "There exists $NinBbb N$ such that
          $$
          |langle x_n|y_nrangle|leq 1-1/k
          $$

          holds for all $nge N$" is




          "For each $Nin Bbb N$, we can find $m > N$ such that
          $$
          |langle x_m|y_mrangle| > 1-1/k
          $$

          holds."




          Now, we just take $N=n_k$ and take $n_{k+1}$ to be $m$ from the above statement.
