Sequence space and compactness

In summary: Therefore, ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is totally bounded, and hence compact.2) To prove that $T$ is not a contraction, we can show that there exists $u^1,u^2 \in {\ell}^{\infty}$ such that $||T(u^1) - T(u^2)|| \geq ||u^1 - u^2||$. Let $u^1 = (1,0,0,...)$ and $u^2 = (0,1,0,0,...)$. Then, $||

Let $X={\ell}^{\infty}:=\left\{u\in{\ell}^{2}\left(R\right):\left| {u}_{k} \right|\le\frac{1}{k}\right\}$ and $T:{\ell}^{\infty}\to{\ell}^{\infty}$, defined by $T{u}_{k}=\frac{k}{k+1}{u}_{k}.$. Then

1) ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is a compact metric space,

2) $T$ is not a contraction,

3) $T$ is not a contractive,

4) Fix(T)=0, the null sequence,

5) The Picard İteration converges (uniformly) to the null sequence, i.e.,

${T}^{n}{u}_{k}^{(0)}=({\frac{k}{k+1}})^n {u}^\left(0\right)_{k}\to 0$

for any ${u}^\left(0\right)_{k}\in {\ell}^{\infty}$

Please prove 1, 2, 4 and 5...And please can you give definition of null sequence ? Thank you for your attention...Best wishes :)

1) ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is a compact metric space,Proof: Let $\left\{ {u^n} \right\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence in ${\ell}^{\infty}$, then for each $u^n$, there exists a natural number $N_n$ such that $\left| {u^n_k} \right|\le\frac{1}{N_n}$ for all $k\ge N_n$. Thus,$||u^n-u^m||_2=\sqrt{\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\left| {u^n_k-u^m_k} \right|^2}\le\sqrt{\sum_{k=N_n}^{\infty}\left| {u^n_k-u^m_k} \right|^2}\le\sqrt{\sum_{k=N_n}^{\infty}\left(\frac{1}{N_n}+\frac{1}{N_m}\right)^2}\le\sqrt{\sum_{k=N_n}^{\infty}\frac{2}{N_n N_m}}$Thus, the sequence $\left\{ {u^n} \right\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is Cauchy and hence converges since ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is complete. Therefore, ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is a compact metric space. 2) $T$ is not a contraction,Proof: Let $u^1,u^2\in{\ell}^{\infty}$ be two arbitrary elements. Then,$||T(u^1)-T(u^2)||_2=\sqrt{\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\left| \frac{k}{k+1}{u^1_k}-\frac{k}{k+1}{u^2_k} \right|^2}=\sqrt{\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{k^2}{(k+1)^2

1) To prove that ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is a compact metric space, we need to show that it is complete and totally bounded.

First, we will show that ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is complete. Let $\{u_n\}$ be a Cauchy sequence in ${\ell}^{\infty}$. This means that for any $\epsilon > 0$, there exists $N \in \mathbb{N}$ such that for all $m,n \geq N$, we have $||u_n - u_m|| < \epsilon$. Since ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is a subset of ${\ell}^{2}$, which is a complete metric space, this means that $\{u_n\}$ is also a Cauchy sequence in ${\ell}^{2}$. Therefore, it converges to some $u \in {\ell}^{2}$.

Next, we need to show that $u \in {\ell}^{\infty}$. Since $u_n \in {\ell}^{\infty}$ for all $n$, we have $|u_{n,k}| \leq \frac{1}{k}$ for all $n$ and $k$. Taking the limit as $n \to \infty$, we get $|u_{k}| \leq \frac{1}{k}$ for all $k$, which means that $u \in {\ell}^{\infty}$. Therefore, ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is complete.

To show that ${\ell}^{\infty}$ is totally bounded, we will use the fact that ${\ell}^{2}$ is totally bounded. Let $\epsilon > 0$ be given. Since ${\ell}^{2}$ is totally bounded, there exists a finite subset $F \subset {\ell}^{2}$ such that for any $u \in {\ell}^{2}$, there exists $v \in F$ such that $||u - v|| < \epsilon$. Now, for any $u \in {\ell}^{\infty}$, we can choose $v \in F$ such that $||u - v|| < \epsilon$. This means that $|u_{k} - v_{k}| < \epsilon$ for all $k$, which implies that $|u
 

Related to Sequence space and compactness

What is sequence space?

Sequence space is a mathematical concept that refers to the set of all possible sequences of elements. It is often used in the study of sequences and series, as well as in the study of compact spaces.

What is compactness in sequence space?

Compactness in sequence space refers to the property of a set of sequences to have a finite number of elements. In other words, a compact sequence space contains only a finite number of sequences, making it easier to analyze and manipulate mathematically.

How is compactness measured in sequence space?

The measure of compactness in sequence space is often done through the use of topological concepts, such as open covers and compactness criteria. These measures allow for the determination of whether a sequence space is compact or not.

What is the importance of compactness in sequence space?

Compactness in sequence space has important implications in various fields of study, such as functional analysis, topology, and mathematical physics. It allows for the simplification and generalization of mathematical concepts, making it easier to solve complex problems.

Can sequence space be both infinite and compact?

Yes, sequence space can be both infinite and compact. In fact, compactness is often defined in terms of infinite sets, as it is a measure of the size and structure of the set of sequences. However, not all infinite sequence spaces are compact, as it ultimately depends on the specific properties of the set of sequences.
