  2. Limit inferior and limit superior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_inferior_and_limit...

    lim sup X n consists of elements of X which belong to X n for infinitely many n (see countably infinite). That is, xlim sup X n if and only if there exists a subsequence (X n k) of (X n) such that xX n k for all k. lim inf X n consists of elements of X which belong to X n for all except finitely many n (i.e., for cofinitely many n).

    Here, "lim sup" denotes limit supremum of the sequence of events, ... Suppose (X n) is a sequence of random variables with Pr(X n = 0) = 1/n 2 for each n.

  4. Infimum and supremum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infimum_and_supremum

    The supremum (abbreviated sup; pl.: suprema) of a subset of a partially ordered set is the least element in that is greater than or equal to each element of , if such an element exists. [1] If the supremum of S {\displaystyle S} exists, it is unique, and if b is an upper bound of S {\displaystyle S} , then the supremum of S {\displaystyle S} is ...

    In these limits, the infinitesimal change is often denoted or .If () is differentiable at , (+) = ′ ().This is the definition of the derivative.All differentiation rules can also be reframed as rules involving limits.

  6. Set-theoretic limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-theoretic_limit

    In mathematics, the limit of a sequence of sets,, … (subsets of a common set ) is a set whose elements are determined by the sequence in either of two equivalent ways: (1) by upper and lower bounds on the sequence that converge monotonically to the same set (analogous to convergence of real-valued sequences) and (2) by convergence of a sequence of indicator functions which are themselves ...

    Fatou's lemma remains true if its assumptions hold -almost everywhere.In other words, it is enough that there is a null set such that the values {()} are non-negative for every .

  8. Monotone convergence theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotone_convergence_theorem

    In the mathematical field of real analysis, the monotone convergence theorem is any of a number of related theorems proving the good convergence behaviour of monotonic sequences, i.e. sequences that are non-increasing, or non-decreasing.

  9. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    On the other hand, if X is the domain of a function f(x) and if the limit as n approaches infinity of f(x n) is L for every arbitrary sequence of points {x n} in Xx 0 which converges to x 0, then the limit of the function f(x) as x approaches x 0 is equal to L. [10] One such sequence would be {x 0 + 1/n}.
