If a series of functions satisfies the Cauchy criterion uniformly, then the series converges uniformly on $S$












1












$begingroup$


Problem: If a series $sum_{k=0}^infty g_k$ of functions satisfies the Cauchy criterion uniformly on a set $S$, then the series converges uniformly on $S$.



If the series satisfies the Cauchy criterion uniformly on $S$, then



$$forall epsilon>0, exists N : n geq m geq N Rightarrow bigg|sum_{k=m}^n g_k(x) bigg| < epsilon , forall x in S$$



Therefore, we can define



$$f_l(x) = sum_{i=0}^l g_i(x)$$



Which transforms the criterion into



$$bigg| sum_{k=0}^ng_k(x) - sum_{k=0}^m g_k(x) bigg| = |f_n(x) - f_m(x)| < epsilon$$



Therefore, the definition of uniformly Cauchy is satisfied.



Is this correct? Is the converse true?

          If you write $f_l(x) = sum_{i=0}^l g_i(x)$ instead of $f_l(x) = sum_{i=0}^l f_i(x)$, then everything is correct.



          And yes, the converse is also true. Try a proof !

            Thank you! I fixed it. I was trying the converse. It seems to be one of those where you actually just go backwards from the original proof.
