No, a member of the set of local maxima is a a local maximum, just like a member of the set of people is a person, because it is a definite singular. The plural is also used for indefinite number, so “the set of local maxima” remains correct even if the set has cardinality 1, but a member of the set has definite singular number irrespective of the cardinality of the set. |
