19 views Chapter 3 Exercise #20 on p. 82 You may start your answer as follows. ε Let ε > 0. Since { p n } is Cauchy, there exists N 1 such that d ( p n, p m ) < for n, m N. 2 Remark. In coming up with an answer, one has the choice of whether to start with "{ p n } is Cauchy" or "some subsequence converges". I believe it is better to start with "{ p n } is Cauchy" as above. https://piazza.com/class/iu4ou132wko5nw?cid=40 1/1
17 views Chapter 3 Exercise #21 on p. 82 One approach is as follows. For each n choose. x n E n Using E n E n+1 and lim n diam E n = 0, show that { } is a Cauchy sequence. x n Show that its limit point (why does this exist?), call it x0, is in E n=1 E n. Suppose that E contains two distinct points. Obtain a contradiction. https://piazza.com/class/iu4ou132wko5nw?cid=41 1/1

In other words, a point p in C is the same as a Cauchy sequence in X. X C p = { } { } p n Define the equivalence relation on by: Two Cauchy sequences and are equivalent, written, if. (a) Show that is an equivalence relation on, i.e., the relation is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Hint for transitivity: Suppose and. Use the triangle inequality. If, then (why?).

Updated 13 hours ago by Bennett Chow Resolved Unresolved Anonymous 16 hours ago For (c), what does it mean by saying a sequence of equivalent classes converges to a specific equivalent class? Bennett Chow 13 hours ago I've edited the post to clarify this. See the third line of (c). I corrected the hint for (e). I've added a few other edits. https://piazza.com/class/iu4ou132wko5nw?cid=44 2/2
