If $limlimits_{nto infty}|x_n|= 0$ then $suplimits_{ngeq 1}|x_n|<infty$












1














I'm self-studying Functional analysis and in one of the proofs, I have the following conclusion which I don't quite understand.




If $limlimits_{nto infty}|x_n|= 0$ then $suplimits_{ngeq 1}|x_n|<infty$




I suppose $limlimits_{nto infty}|x_n|= 0$ implies that $|x_n|<epsilon,;;forall,ngeq N,$ for some $N$. So, taking sup over ${x_n}_{ngeq N},$ we have
begin{align} suplimits_{ngeq N}|x_n|leqepsilon<infty.end{align}
So, how come the result? Could someone explain?

  • Mike.You forgot the $1le n lt N$ elements |x_n|.Does this change anything?

Since $x_n to 0$ then exists $bar n$ such that forall $n ge bar n$



$$0le |a_n|le 1$$



now take



$$a_{max}=max{|a_n|:n=1,2,ldots,bar n}$$



and indicate with $M=max{1,a_{max}}$ then



$$0le |a_n|le M$$
