(iv) fn (x) =
x, 1/n < x ≤ 1.
(8) Suppose that fn : [a, b] → R is an increasing function for each n, and that limn→∞ fn (x) = f (x)
exists for each x ∈ [a, b]. Is f increasing?
(9) Let f : R → R be uniformly continuous and define fn (x) = f (x + (1/n)). Show that fn
converges uniformly on R.
(10) For each n ∈ N, let fn (x) = limm→∞ (cos n!πx)2m . Show that the sequence {fn } converges on
R to the function χQ , the Dirichlet function. If [a, b] be a closed and bounded interval, show
that each fn is integrable on [a, b]. Is the convergence is uniform on [a, b]? What about if ‘ cos’
is replaced by ‘ sin’ in the above expression?
(11) Let fn : R → R be a sequence of functions such that it converges uniformly on every closed
and bounded interval [a, b]. Does it follow that {fn } converges uniformly on R?
(12) Let {fn } be a sequence of Riemann integrable functions defined on an unbounded∫interval∫ I of
R and converging uniformly to some function f on I. Is it still true that limn→∞ I fn = I f ?
(13) If f is continuous on [0, 1] and if

(15) Prove that the series n=1 n(x+n) is uniformly convergent on [0,1]. If f (x) be the sum of
∫1
the series, prove that f is continuous on [0, 1]. Also prove that 0 f (x) dx = γ, where γ =
limn→∞ (1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + · · · + 1/n − log n).
