Consider the space ℓ∞ of bounded real sequences x=(xi)i=1∞ with the norm ∥x∥∞=supi∣xi∣. Show that for every bounded sequence x(n) in ℓ∞ there is a subsequence x(nj) which converges in every coordinate, i.e. the sequence (xi(nj))j=1∞ of real numbers converges for each i. Does every bounded sequence in ℓ∞ have a convergent subsequence? Justify your answer.
Let ℓ1⊂ℓ∞ be the subspace of real sequences x=(xi)i=1∞ such that ∑i=1∞∣xi∣ converges. Is ℓ1 complete in the norm ∥⋅∥∞ (restricted from ℓ∞ to ℓ1) ? Justify your answer.
Suppose that (xi) is a real sequence such that, for every (yi)∈ℓ∞, the series ∑i=1∞xiyi converges. Show that (xi)∈ℓ1.
Suppose now that (xi) is a real sequence such that, for every (yi)∈ℓ1, the series ∑i=1∞xiyi converges. Show that (xi)∈ℓ∞.
