State and prove Baire's category theorem for complete metric spaces. Give an example to show that it may fail if the metric space is not complete.
Let fn:[0,1]→R be a sequence of continuous functions such that fn(x) converges for all x∈[0,1]. Show that if ϵ>0 is fixed we can find an N⩾0 and a non-empty open interval J⊆[0,1] such that ∣fn(x)−fm(x)∣⩽ϵ for all x∈J and all n,m⩾N.
Let g:[0,1]→R be defined by
g(x)={10 if x is rational if x is irrational.
Show that we cannot find continuous functions gn:[0,1]→R with gn(x)→g(x) for each x∈[0,1] as n→∞.
Define a sequence of continuous functions hn:[0,1]→R and a discontinuous function h:[0,1]→R with hn(x)→h(x) for each x∈[0,1] as n→∞.
