Question 1
(a)
( =⇒ ) Since fA (x) = inf{|x − y| : y ∈ A} = 0, by the definition of inf, for every n ∈ N
there exists xn ∈ A such that |x − xn | < n1 . Let ε > 0 be given and choose N such that
N > 1ε (by the Archimedean property.) Then for the sequence {xn }, n ≥ N implies
|x − xn | <
1

≤
< ε.
n
N
Hence {xn } is convergent, xn ∈ A for all n and lim xn = x.
n→∞
( ⇐= by contradiction) Since |x − y| ≥ 0, inf |x − y| ≥ 0 for all x, y ∈ R. Suppose
fA (x) = inf{|x − y| : y ∈ A} = ε > 0 for some x. Then for any sequence {xn } such that
all xn ∈ A, |xn − x| ≥ inf{|x − y| : y ∈ A} = ε and hence cannot converge to x.
(b)
fA (x) = inf{|x − z| : z ∈ A}
= inf{|x − y + y − z| : z ∈ A}
≤ inf{|x − y| + |y − z| : z ∈ A}
≤ |x − y| + inf{|y − z| : z ∈ A}
= |x − y| + fA (y)
where we have assumed and hence fA (x) − fA (y) ≤ |x − y|. Interchanging the variables x
and y leads to the inequality fA (y) − fA (x) ≤ |x − y|, and hence |fA (x) − fA (y)| ≤ |x − y|,
as desired.
We furnish the proof with the following details:
Inequality on line 3. Let S and T be two non-empty sets, both bounded from below in R. For any s ∈ S and t ∈ T ,
inf{|s + t| : s ∈ S, t ∈ T } ≤ |s + t| ≤ |s| + |t|
and hence inf{|s + t| : s ∈ S, t ∈ T } provides a lower bound on |s| + |t|. Hence
inf{|s + t| : s ∈ S, t ∈ T } ≤ inf{|s| + |t| : s ∈ S, t ∈ T } and the inequality on line 3
is a consequence of this result.
Inequality on line 4. Let U be a non-empty set, bounded from below in R. For
any constant c and any u ∈ U ,
inf{c + u : u ∈ U } ≤ c + u
inf{c + u : u ∈ U } − c ≤ u
and hence inf{c + u : u ∈ U } provides a lower bound on U . Hence
inf{c + u : u ∈ U } − c ≤ inf U
inf{c + u : u ∈ U } ≤ c + inf U
1
and the inequality on line 4 is a consequence of this result.
Now, let ε > 0 be given and choose δ = ε. Then
|fA (x) − fA (y)| ≤ |x − y| < δ = ε.
Hence fA (x) is uniformly continuous on R.
(c)
(i)
Since
• fA (x) is continuous,
• fA (x) + fB (x) is continuous and
• fA (x) + fB (x) ̸= 0 ∀x ∈ R,
fA (x)
is continuous on R.
fA (x) + fB (x)

Consider the closed interval [0, m]. Then

|fn (x)| =
Hence {fn (x)} converges uniformly to 0 on [0, m], and converges pointwise to 0 on [0, ∞)
since there is a closed interval [0, m] containing any M > 0.
Now consider the closed interval [0, ∞). Let ε = 41 and define the sequence {xn }∞

|fn (xn ) − 0| =
We have shown that there exists a sequence {xn } with all xn ∈ [0, ∞) such that for n ≥ 2,
|fn (xn ) − 0| ≥ ε. So, {fn (x)} does not converge uniformly on [0, ∞).
(b)
By the Archimedean property, for any positive real number v satisfying 0 < v < 1, there
exists N ∈ N such that N > v1 . Hence, for all n ≥ N , gn (v) = 1 since n1 ≤ N1 < v < 1.
Thus gn (x) = 1 on [v, 1] for all n ≥ N and hence {gn (x)} converges uniformly to 1 on
[v, 1], and converges pointwise to 1 on (0, 1] since for any w such that 0 < w < 1 there is
a closed interval [ w2 , 1] that contains it.
1
However, by choosing ε = 1 and defining the sequence {xn } = n+1
, |gn (xn )−1| = |0−1| =
1 = ε. Hence there exists a sequence {xn } with all xn ∈ (0, 1] and |gn (xn ) − 1| ≥ ε; and
so {gn (x)} is not uniformly convergent on [0, 1].

Next, we show that the sequence of functions {fn (x)} = 1 − e−x/n converges uniformly to

Let ε > 0 be given. Since {gn (x)} converges pointwise on [0, 1], there exists N1 , N2
such that n ≥ N1 implies |gn (0) − K| < ε and n ≥ N2 implies |gn (1) − K| < ε. Let
N = max{N1 , N2 }. Then for all n ≥ N , we have that gn (0) > K − ε and gn (1) < K + ε,
and
K − ε < gn (0) ≤ gn (x) ≤ gn (1) < K + ε
for all x ∈ [0, 1], under the assumption that gn (x) is monotone increasing on [0, 1]. Hence
|gn (x) − K| < ε for all n ≥ N and x ∈ [0, 1], i.e., the convergence of {gn (x)} is uniform
on [0, 1].
