How That the Sequence Smman Converges Uniformly to a Continuous Function S

Counterexample to a strengthening of the uniform limit theorem, in which pointwise convergence, rather than uniform convergence, is assumed. The continuous green functions sin n ( x ) {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \scriptstyle \sin ^{n}(x)} converge to the non-continuous red function. This can happen only if convergence is not uniform.

In mathematics, the uniform limit theorem states that the uniform limit of any sequence of continuous functions is continuous.

Statement [edit]

More precisely, let X be a topological space, let Y be a metric space, and let ƒ n  :X →Y be a sequence of functions converging uniformly to a function ƒ :X →Y. According to the uniform limit theorem, if each of the functions ƒ n is continuous, then the limit ƒ must be continuous as well.

This theorem does not hold if uniform convergence is replaced by pointwise convergence. For example, let ƒ n  : [0, 1] →R be the sequence of functions ƒ n (x) =xn . Then each function ƒ n is continuous, but the sequence converges pointwise to the discontinuous function ƒ that is zero on [0, 1) but has ƒ(1) = 1. Another example is shown in the adjacent image.

In terms of function spaces, the uniform limit theorem says that the space C(X,Y) of all continuous functions from a topological space X to a metric space Y is a closed subset of YX under the uniform metric. In the case where Y is complete, it follows that C(X,Y) is itself a complete metric space. In particular, if Y is a Banach space, then C(X,Y) is itself a Banach space under the uniform norm.

The uniform limit theorem also holds if continuity is replaced by uniform continuity. That is, if X and Y are metric spaces and ƒ n  :X →Y is a sequence of uniformly continuous functions converging uniformly to a function ƒ, then ƒ must be uniformly continuous.

Proof [edit]

In order to prove the continuity of f, we have to show that for every ε > 0, there exists a neighbourhood U of any point x of X such that:

d Y ( f ( x ) , f ( y ) ) < ϵ , y U {\displaystyle d_{Y}(f(x),f(y))<\epsilon ,\qquad \forall y\in U}

Consider an arbitrary ε > 0. Since the sequence of functions (fn) converges uniformly to f by hypothesis, there exists a natural number N such that:

d Y ( f N ( t ) , f ( t ) ) < ϵ 3 , t X {\displaystyle d_{Y}(f_{N}(t),f(t))<{\frac {\epsilon }{3}},\qquad \forall t\in X}

Moreover, since fN is continuous on X by hypothesis, for every x there exists a neighbourhood U such that:

d Y ( f N ( x ) , f N ( y ) ) < ϵ 3 , y U {\displaystyle d_{Y}(f_{N}(x),f_{N}(y))<{\frac {\epsilon }{3}},\qquad \forall y\in U}

In the final step, we apply the triangle inequality in the following way:

d Y ( f ( x ) , f ( y ) ) d Y ( f ( x ) , f N ( x ) ) + d Y ( f N ( x ) , f N ( y ) ) + d Y ( f N ( y ) , f ( y ) ) < ϵ 3 + ϵ 3 + ϵ 3 = ϵ , y U {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}d_{Y}(f(x),f(y))&\leq d_{Y}(f(x),f_{N}(x))+d_{Y}(f_{N}(x),f_{N}(y))+d_{Y}(f_{N}(y),f(y))\\&<{\frac {\epsilon }{3}}+{\frac {\epsilon }{3}}+{\frac {\epsilon }{3}}=\epsilon ,\qquad \forall y\in U\end{aligned}}}

Hence, we have shown that the first inequality in the proof holds, so by definition f is continuous everywhere on X.

Uniform limit theorem in complex analysis [edit]

There are also variants of the uniform limit theorem that are used in complex analysis, albeit with modified assumptions.

Theorem.[1] Let Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } be an open and connected subset of the complex numbers. Suppose that ( f n ) n = 1 {\displaystyle (f_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty }} is a sequence of holomorphic functions f n : Ω C {\displaystyle f_{n}:\Omega \to \mathbb {C} } that converges uniformly to a function f : Ω C {\displaystyle f:\Omega \to \mathbb {C} } on every compact subset of Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } . Then f {\displaystyle f} is holomorphic in Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } , and moreover, the sequence of derivatives ( f n ) n = 1 {\displaystyle (f'_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty }} converges uniformly to f {\displaystyle f'} on every compact subset of Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } .

Theorem.[2] Let Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } be an open and connected subset of the complex numbers. Suppose that ( f n ) n = 1 {\displaystyle (f_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty }} is a sequence of univalent[3] functions f n : Ω C {\displaystyle f_{n}:\Omega \to \mathbb {C} } that converges uniformly to a function f : Ω C {\displaystyle f:\Omega \to \mathbb {C} } . Then f {\displaystyle f} is holomorphic, and moreover, f {\displaystyle f} is either univalent or constant in Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } .
