Real Analysis

Prove that if a sequence (an)(a_n) diverges to infinity, then all of its subsequences also diverge to infinity.

Prove that the sequence of functions fn(x)=x1+nx2f_n(x) = \frac{x}{1 + nx^2} converges uniformly on the set of real numbers to 0.

Consider a sequence of functions fnf_n that converges pointwise to a function ff. Demonstrate why this sequence does not exhibit uniform convergence.

Prove that if aa and bb are real numbers and aa is positive, then there exists a natural number nn such that n×a>bn \times a > b.

Prove that for any real number xx, there exists a natural number greater than xx, meaning the natural numbers are unbounded above.

Consider the recursively defined sequence an+1=13an+1a_{n+1} = \frac{1}{3} a_n + 1 with a1=1a_1 = 1. Use the Monotone Convergence Theorem to show that this sequence converges.

Given the recursive sequence defined by a1=1a_1 = 1 and an=1+11+an1a_n = 1 + \frac{1}{1 + a_{n-1}} for n2n \geq 2, determine the limit of the sequence as nn \to \infty.

For the Riemann integral, we always start with a partition of the x-axis. Then, we approximate the area under the function's graph by summing up the areas of rectangles formed by choosing points on the x-axis and using those points to determine the width and height of each rectangle. The main question is whether this method correctly represents the area, and we need to ensure that this method defines the integral accurately, even with different choices of partitions and values.

Let ff be the function defined on the closed interval from 0 to 1 by f(x)=0f(x) = 0 if xx is not a rational number, and f(x)=1f(x) = 1 if xx is a rational number. Determine if the function is Riemann integrable.

Exercise 1: Suppose you've got a function on the interval from 0 to 1 which is 0 except at finitely many points. Show that ff is integrable and the value of the integral is 0.

Exercise 2: Suppose ff is the function on the closed interval from 0 to 1 which is defined by f(x)=0f(x) = 0 if xx is not equal to 1n\frac{1}{n} for any natural number nn and f(x)=1f(x) = 1 if xx is equal to 1n\frac{1}{n} for some natural number nn. Is this function Riemann integrable?

Find the value of cc for the function f(x)=x22x+1f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 1 on the interval [1,3][-1, 3] where f(c)=0f'(c) = 0 using Rolle's Theorem.

Evaluate if Rolle's Theorem applies for the function f(x)=x24xf(x) = \frac{x^2 - 4}{x} on the interval [2,2][-2, 2].

Verify Rolle's Theorem and find the value or values of c that satisfy it for the following function on the given interval.

Prove that the sequence 3n+1n+2\frac{3n+1}{n+2} converges to the limit 3 using the epsilon definition of the limit of a sequence.

Make the quantity 3n+22n+532\frac{3n + 2}{2n + 5} - \frac{3}{2} less than epsilon for n>Nn > N in an epsilon-N proof.
