    1. Investigate the convergence of the sequence (xn ) in each of the following


    cases:
    1 2 n
    (a) xn = 1+n2 + 1+n2 +.....+ 1+n2
    1
    (b) xn = (an + bn ) n where 0<a<b
    √ 1 √ 1 √ 1
    (c) xn = ( 2 − 2 3 )( 2 − 2 5 ).....( 2 − 2 2n+1 )
    (d) xn = nα − (n + 1)α f or some α ∈ (0, 1)
    (e) xn = 2n /n!
    1−2+3−4+...+(−1)n−1 n
    (f) xn = n

    2. Let {fn } be the sequence of functions on R defined by fn (x) = nx. Com-


    ment on the convergence of this sequence on R.
    3. Consider the sequence {fn } of functions defined by

    nx+x2
    fn (x) = n2 f or all x in R

    Show that fn converges pointwise.

    4. Let {fn } be the sequence of functions defined by by fn (x) = cosn (x)f or


    −π π
    2 ≤ x ≤ 2 . Discuss the pointwise convergence of the sequence.

    5. Consider the sequence of functions defined by

    fn (x) = nx(1 − x)n on [0,1].

    Show that {fn } converges pointwise to the zero function.

    6. Let {fn } be the sequence of functions on R defined by
    (
    1
    n3 for 0 < x ≤ n
    fn (x) =
    1 otherwise

    Show that {fn } converges pointwise to the constant function f = 1 on R.

    7. Let {fn } be the sequence of functions on (0,∞) defined by

    nx
    fn (x) = 1+n2 x2

    (a) Compute the pointwise limit of fn (x). Call this the limit function
    f(x).
    (b) Decide if fn →
    − f uniformly on [0,1]. Prove your answer.
    (c) Decide if fn →
    − f uniformly on [1, ∞). Prove your answer.
    10. If {fn } and {gn } converge uniformly on a set E, then prove that {fn + gn }
    converges uniformly on E.

    11. Construct sequences {fn },{gn } which converge uniformly on some set E,
    but such that {fn gn } →
    − h for some function h but not uniformly.
    12. Consider a sequence of functions {fn } defined as

    fn (x) = nx(1 − x2 )n on [0,1]

    (a) Show that {fn } converges pointwise and find its limit function f (x).
