A property of product of sequence being small

27 Views Asked by At

Let $a \in (0,1)$ and a monotonically (strictly) decreasing sequence of non-negative numbers $t_n \to 0$ be given.

Define $$b_n = t_n(1+a) + a.$$

How can I show that for every $\epsilon >0$, there exists an $n_0$ such that $n \geq n_0$ implies $$b_1\times b_2 \times \cdots \times b_n \leq \epsilon?$$

Is it possible to quantify $n_0$ in terms of the $\epsilon$ and $a$?

To show this one could use the binomial theorem, but the cross terms are hard to make small.
