  2. Bolzano–Weierstrass theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolzano–Weierstrass_theorem

    Firstly, we will acknowledge that a sequence () (in or ) has a convergent subsequence if and only if there exists a countable set where is the index set of the sequence such that () converges. Let ( x n ) {\displaystyle (x_{n})} be any bounded sequence in R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} and denote its index set by I {\displaystyle I} .

  3. Monotone convergence theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotone_convergence_theorem

    The theorem states that if you have an infinite matrix of non-negative real numbers , such that the rows are weakly increasing and each is bounded , where the bounds are summable < then, for each column, the non decreasing column sums , are bounded hence convergent, and the limit of the column sums is equal to the sum of the "limit column ...

  4. Convergence of random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_of_random...

    The different possible notions of convergence relate to how such a behavior can be characterized: two readily understood behaviors are that the sequence eventually takes a constant value, and that values in the sequence continue to change but can be described by an unchanging probability distribution.

  5. Helly's selection theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helly's_selection_theorem

    In mathematics, Helly's selection theorem (also called the Helly selection principle) states that a uniformly bounded sequence of monotone real functions admits a convergent subsequence. In other words, it is a sequential compactness theorem for the space of uniformly bounded monotone functions. It is named for the Austrian mathematician Eduard ...

  6. Modes of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modes_of_convergence

    The sequence of partial sums obtained by grouping is a subsequence of the partial sums of the original series. The convergence of each absolutely convergent series is an equivalent condition for a normed vector space to be Banach (i.e.: complete).

  7. Abel's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel's_test

    The test is as follows. Let {g n} be a uniformly bounded sequence of real-valued continuous functions on a set E such that g n+1 (x) ≤ g n (x) for all x ∈ E and positive integers n, and let {f n} be a sequence of real-valued functions such that the series Σf n (x) converges uniformly on E. Then Σf n (x)g n (x) converges uniformly on E.

  8. Limit of a sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_sequence

    The plot of a convergent sequence {a n} is shown in blue. Here, one can see that the sequence is converging to the limit 0 as n increases. In the real numbers , a number L {\displaystyle L} is the limit of the sequence ( x n ) {\displaystyle (x_{n})} , if the numbers in the sequence become closer and closer to L {\displaystyle L} , and not to ...

  9. Weak convergence (Hilbert space) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_convergence_(Hilbert...

    However, bounded and weakly closed sets are weakly compact so as a consequence every convex bounded closed set is weakly compact. As a consequence of the principle of uniform boundedness, every weakly convergent sequence is bounded. The norm is (sequentially) weakly lower-semicontinuous: if converges weakly to x, then
