Studying delta sequences and am wondering if ##\phi_n(x)## is a delta sequence (it resembles and validates the sifting property), will ##\phi_n(x - a)## or ##\phi_n(whatever)## respect the sifting property ? I think I get confused in the semantics, because reading my textbook, I get the...
Okay, i was able to solve it by trial and error, i am seeking for a more concrete approach. Can combination work here? or a more solid approach using sequences? or probability itself?

Below is Proposition 1.15 in Folland at the beginning of the section of Borel measures on ##\mathbb R## (he is trying to construct a measure from ##F##). Here the algebra ##\mathcal{A}## is the finite disjoint union of h-intervals, where h-interval is a set of the form ##(a,b]##, ##(a,\infty)##...
Let ##\mathbb{R}^\omega_{+}## be the set of all sequences ##(a_n)_{n=1}^\infty## of positive real numbers. Determine the infimum $$\inf\left\{\limsup_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{1 + a_{n+1}}{a_n}\right)^n : (a_n) \in \mathbb{R}^\omega_{+}\right\}$$
The series that is given is $$\frac12+\frac13+\left(\frac12\right)^2+\left(\frac13\right)^2+\left(\frac12\right)^3+\left(\frac13\right)^3+\ldots.$$ Now, it's easy to see these are two separate geometric series, however, Spivak claims the ratio test fails because the ratio of successive terms...

Consider the following:
We start with a positive integer: x
If x is even, do
x/2
If is odd, do
Floor function( x * y)
with y being some decimal number between 1 and 2
And repeat until a loop is reached. If 1 is reached, the next number will be 1 as well. So we reach a loop too.

A sequence is made up of two sequences
