  2. Limit inferior and limit superior - Wikipedia

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

    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). That is, xlim inf X n if and only if there exists some m > 0 such that xX n for all n > m.

  3. Indeterminate form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_form

    A limit taking one of these indeterminate forms might tend to zero, might tend to any finite value, might tend to infinity, or might diverge, depending on the specific functions involved. A limit which unambiguously tends to infinity, for instance lim x0 1 / x 2 = ∞ , {\textstyle \lim _{x\to 0}1/x^{2}=\infty ,} is not considered ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_limits

    If () for all x in an interval that contains c, except possibly c itself, and the limit of () and () both exist at c, then [5] () If lim x → c f ( x ) = lim x → c h ( x ) = L {\displaystyle \lim _{x\to c}f(x)=\lim _{x\to c}h(x)=L} and f ( x ) ≤ g ( x ) ≤ h ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)\leq g(x)\leq h(x)} for all x in an open interval that ...

  5. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_(mathematics)

    On one hand, the limit as n approaches infinity of a sequence {a n} is simply the limit at infinity of a function a(n) —defined on the natural numbers {n}. 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 ...

  6. Infimum and supremum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infimum_and_supremum

    supremum = least upper bound. A lower bound of a subset of a partially ordered set (,) is an element of such that . for all .; A lower bound of is called an infimum (or greatest lower bound, or meet) of if

  7. 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 ...

  8. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    The function = {⁡ < = > has no limit at x 0 = 1 (the left-hand limit does not exist due to the oscillatory nature of the sine function, and the right-hand limit does not exist due to the asymptotic behaviour of the reciprocal function, see picture), but has a limit at every other x-coordinate.

  9. Fatou's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatou's_lemma

    This sequence converges uniformly on S to the zero function and the limit, 0, is reached in a finite number of steps: for every x0, if n > x, then f n (x) = 0. However, every function f n has integral −1. Contrary to Fatou's lemma, this value is strictly less than the integral of the limit (0).
