I am trying to prove that the following sequence of density functions $$f_{n}(x) = \mathbb{1}_{\left(0,2^{n}\right)}(x) \cdot \left(\dfrac{\left(n\ln(2) - \ln(x)\right)^{n}}{2^{n}\cdot n!} \right)$$ ...

I wonder if it is possible to describe pointwise convergence set-theoretically. More specifically, let $(f_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of functions from $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathbb{R}$, and let $f$ be ...

Inspired by this question. Let $\tilde{f}:[0,1)\to \mathbb{R}$ be a bounded, non-constant continuous function. Let $f$ be the $1$-periodic extension of $\tilde{f}$ to $\mathbb{R}$. Let $g:[0,1]\to\...

Consider the space of probability distributions on $(0,\infty)$ denoted through their cdf $F$. Let $F_0$ be a probability distribution having a point mass at $0$, so that $F_0$ has a step at $0$ (say ...

Let $$S_a(x)=\sum^{\infty }_{n=1}\frac{x}{n^a({1+nx^2})}$$ for $\ x\in \mathbb{R}$. I know $S_a(x)$ is pointwise convergent if $a>0$. I know $S_a(x)$ is uniformly convergent if $a>1/2$ (by the ...

Let $(X,A,\mu)$ a measure space. Assume a sequence $(f_n)$ of positive (i.e. $\geq 0$) measurable functions from $X$ to $\mathbb{R}$ converges to $f$ in $L^p$. Then is $f$ positive ? My idea is the ...

As a technical detail in my work, I need a concrete formula for a sequence of functions $f_n:[0, \infty) \to (a, \infty)$, as simple as possible, that satisfies all of the following conditions : $f_n(...
