Let (an) be a bounded sequence.
(a) Prove that the sequence defined by yn = sup{ak k ≥n} converges.
(b) The limit superior of (an), or lim sup an, is defined by
lim sup an
=
lim yn,
where yn is the sequence from part (a) of this exercise. Provide a reason-
able definition for lim inf an and briefly explain why it always exists for
any bounded sequence.
(c) Prove that lim inf an <lim sup an for every bounded sequence, and give
an example of a sequence for which the inequality is strict.
