3.17 Theorem Let {sn} be a sequence of real numbers. Let E and s* have the same meaning as in Definition 3. 16. Then s* has the following two properties: (a) s* e E. (b) If x> s*, there is an integer N such that n � N implies sn < x. Moreover, s* is the only number with the properties (a) and (b). Of course, an analogous result is true for s * . Proof (a) If s* = + 00, then E is not bounded above; hence {sn} is not bounded above, and there is a subsequence {snk } such that snk ) + 00. If s* is real, then E is bounded above, and at least one subsequential limit exists, so that (a) follows from Theorems 3.7 and 2.28. If s* = - 00, then E contains only one element, namely - 00, and there is no subsequential limit. Hence, for any real M, Sn > M for at most a finite number of values of n, so that Sn ) - 00. This establishes (a) in all cases. (b) Suppose there is a number x> s* such that Sn � x for infinitely many values of n. In that case, there is a number y E E such that y � x…
