Question

(i) Let gn(x) =1/n(1 + x2) For any fixed x ∈ R, we can see that limgn(x) = 0 so that g(x) = 0 is the pointwise limit of the sequence (gn) on R. Is this convergence uniform? The observation that 1/(1 + x2) ≤ 1 for all x ∈ R implies that

|gn(x) – g(x)| =
-
|n(1+x²)
Thus, given e > 0, we can choose N >
1/e (which does not depend on x),
and it follows that
n 2N implies Ign(x) – 9(x)| < E
for all r e R. By Definition 6.2.3, In +0 uniformly on R.
(ii) Look back at Example 6.2.2 (i), where we saw that fn(x) = (x2 + nx)/n
converges pointwise on R to f(x)
uniform. To see this write
= x. On R, the convergence is not
x' + nx
|fn(x) – f(x)| =
and notice that in order to force |fn (x) – f(x)| < e, we are going to have
to choose

Although this is possible to do for each r e R, there is no way to choose
a single value of N that will work for all values of x at the same time.
On the other hand, we can show that fn + f uniformly on the set [-b, b].
By restricting our attention to a bounded interval, we may now assert that
Given e > 0, then, we can choose

Graphically speaking, the uniform convergence of fn to a limit f on a set
A can be visualized by constructing a band of radius ±e around the limit func-
tion f. If fn + f uniformly, then there exists a point in the sequence after which
each fn is completely contained in this e-strip (Fig. 6.4). This image should be
