    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. Observe that xlim sup X n if and only if xlim inf X n c.

  3. 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 ...

    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 ...

    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}.

  6. 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 x ≥ 0, 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).

    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 ...

  8. 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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Limit_inferior_and...

    The limit inferior of xn is the largest real number b that, for any positive real number \varepsilon, there exists a natural number N such that x_n>b-\varepsilon for all n > N. In other words, any number below the limit inferior is an eventual lower bound for the sequence.
