How to write "at least one of these two is greater than..." in mathematical notation?

142 Views Asked by At

I want to write the following in standard mathematical notation.

All integers $i, j$ such that $f(i, j) > E$ and $f(k, l) > E + \Delta E$ or $f(i, j) > E + \Delta E$ and $f(k, l) > E$

where $f$ monotonically increases with the square of each integer and $E$ and $\Delta E$ are both positive. It could be also written

$f(i, j), f(k, l) > E$ and at least one of $f(i, j)$ or $f(k, l)$ are $> E + \Delta E$.

I'm looking for an easy to read way to write this, not something that involves multiplication or some other technique that enforces this constraint mathematically but might take a while for some to understand how.

Is there an easy way to write this "...at least one of these two expressions is greater than...?" requirement?

The inequalities in your original post don't seem to be equivalent, but with the new ones not something like $max(f(i, j), f(k, l))>E+\Delta E$, $min(f(i,j), f(k, l))>E$ or similar?
