If there is a tie, we must consider the atoms at distance 2 from the stereocenter — as a list is made for each group of the atoms bonded to the one directly attached to the stereocenter.

If there is still a tie, each atom in each of the two lists is replaced with a sub-list of the other atoms bonded to it ( at distance 3 from the stereocenter ), the sub-lists are arranged in decreasing order of atomic number, and the entire structure is again compared atom by atom.

* If is the norm ( usually noted as ) defined in the square-summable sequence space ℓ < sup > 2 </ sup > ( which also matches the usual distance in a continuous and isotropic cartesian space ), then

* If is the norm ( usually noted as ) defined in the sequence space ℓ < sup >∞</ sup > of all bounded sequences ( which also matches the non-linear distance measured as the maximum of distances measured on projections into the base subspaces, without requiring the space to be isotropic or even just linear, but only continuous, such norm being definable on all Banach spaces ), and is lower triangular non-singular ( i. e., ) then

If, for the same focal length setting, the subject distance is adjusted to provide the same field of view at the subject, at the same f-number and final-image size, the smaller format has greater DOF, as with the “ same picture ” comparison above.

If pictures are taken from the same distance using the same f-number, same focal length, and the final images are the same size, the smaller format has less DOF.

If pictures taken from the same subject distance using the same focal length, are given the same enlargement, both final images will have the same DOF.
