What the notation means · or point at any symbol
NNatural numbers
The natural numbers 0, 1, 2, …. In Lean they start at 0. (ℕ)
Fin
Fin: a definition from the library, not special notation. Its name is its meaning; open it in Lean to see how it is defined. (Fin)
f(x)Function application
Fin applied to n. Lean writes f x; papers write f(x). (Fin n)
⟹Implies
If Fin(n), then ℝ. (Between types, A → B is the type of functions from A to B.) (Fin n → ℝ)
x : TVariables
p, q range over Fin n → ℝ: the statement must hold for every choice. ((p q : Fin n → ℝ))
perplex
LLMLM.perplex: a definition from the library, not special notation. Its name is its meaning; open it in Lean to see how it is defined. (LLMLM.perplex)
=Equality
perplex(p, q) and exp(crossEnt(p, q)) are the same. (LLMLM.perplex p q = Real.exp (LLMLM.cro…)
RReal numbers
The real numbers: every point on the number line. (ℝ)
eˣExponential function
e raised to the power crossEnt(p, q), where e ≈ 2.718. (Real.exp (LLMLM.crossEnt p q))
crossEnt
LLMLM.crossEnt: a definition from the library, not special notation. Its name is its meaning; open it in Lean to see how it is defined. (LLMLM.crossEnt)

LLMLM.perplex p q = Real.exp (LLMLM.crossEnt p q).
