Question 1

On $BV[0,1]$ we can introduce the following norm: $$\lVert f \rVert_{BV} := \lVert f \rVert_{\infty} + V(f)$$ [Here, $V$ is the total variation.] I want to show that this normed space is a Banach ...

Question 2

TL;DR: Are there any notable textbooks that use the definition $$ \forall\varepsilon>0.\;\exists n.\;\forall r\geq n.\;d(u_r,u_n)<\varepsilon \tag{$\dagger$} $$ rather the more standard $$ \...

Question 3

I am currently revising my Topology notes, and today I have started looking into compact metric spaces. I am trying to prove explicitly the following: Theorem - Let $\left( X, d\right)$ be a compact ...

Question 4

Definition - Consider the set $X=\left\{ 0 ,1 \right\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ and define a function $\mu :X\times X \to \mathbb{N}$ by $$\mu \left(\mathbf{x}, \mathbf{y} \right) = \min \left\{n\in \mathbb{N} \...

Question 5

Problems in Real Analysis Ex 1.6.48 Let $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a sequence of positive real numbers such that for every $n \geq 1$ $$a_{n+1} \leq a_n + \frac{1}{(n+1)^2}.$$ Prove that the sequence $(...

Question 6

I am trying to learn about Hilbert spaces and I know that a complete inner product product space is hilbert space, I know their definition (Metric space, Vector space, Normed space, Banach space, ...

Question 7

Theorem 2.36 of Baby Rudin states the following. "If $\{K_\alpha\}$ is a collection of compact subsets of a metric space $X$ such that the intersection of every finite sub-collection of $\{K_\...

Question 8

The proposition is written as Let $X$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}$, and let $f \colon X \to \mathbb{R}$ be a uniformly continuous function. Let $(x_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ be a Cauchy sequence consisting ...

Question 9

The following statement is found in an article of Cauchy sequence on ncatlab. https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/Cauchy+sequence#definitions More generally, let $S$ and $T$ be sets and let $R ( a , b , t )...

Question 10

I need help proving that the series $\sum_{k = 1}^\infty \frac{|\sin k|}{k}$ diverges, specifically by using Cauchy's convergence test. What I tried, in short, is finding a segment such that the value ...

Question 11

Is there any Banach space other than $l^p$ satisfies the following conditions? There exists a biorthogonal system $(x_i, f_i)_{i \in \mathbb{N}},$ where $(x_i)_{i \in \mathbb{N}} \subset X$ and $(f_i)...

Question 12

Ok, so I was reading the book Banach Algebra Techniques in Operator Theory by Douglas and I was thinking about something. 1.7 Proposition In a Banach space each Cauchy net is convergent. Proof Let $\{...

Question 13

I have come across the following exercise. Given $(x_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ with $ 0 \leq x_{n+1} \leq x_n + \frac{1}{n^2} \ \forall n\in\mathbb{N}, $ show that $\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty} x_n$ ...

Question 14

I'm trying to understand a particular proof that a Contractive sequence is a Cauchy sequence: Contractive Sequences Definition A sequence $x_n$ is called contractive if there exists $K \in (0, 1)$ ...

Question 15

I've recently been teaching myself about Cauchy sequences and I'm trying to understand a certain proof that the decimal expansion of $\sqrt{2}$ is a Cauchy sequence. This proof uses the following ...
