Consider the sequence of continuous functions {f} on [0, 1] given
n£ 0<a<l/n
1/n ≤ x ≤ 1
fn(2):=
0
Show that {f} has no subsequence which is convergent in uniform norm.
(Hint: Show that every subsequence of {f} converges pointwise to some function. Can
the subsequences converge uniformly?)
(Remark: This is an example of a sequence of continuous functions bounded in the
uniform norm which has no convergent subsequence.)
