Examples of sequences in lp spaces

992 Views Asked by At

Give an example of a sequence in $l^{1}$ that:

1) converges a zero in $l^{\infty}$ but is not bounded in $l^{2}$;

2) converges a zero in $l^{2}$ but is not bounded in $l^{1}$.

Can anyone help me?

I thought to use these sequences

$$1) x(n)=\frac{e_n}{n^{1/3}}$$

$$2) x(n)=\frac{1}{n}$$

Are they correct?

For 1) define $a_{n,j}=\frac 1 n$ for $j\leq n^{3}$ and $0$ otherwise. For 2) define $a_{n,j}=\frac 1 j$ for $n\leq j\leq n^{2}$ and $0$ otherwise. The sequences $a_n=(a_{n,j})$, $n=1,2,\cdots$ have the required properties. For 2) you need the fact that $\sum_n^{n^{2}}\frac 1 j \to \infty$. For this compare with the integral $\int_n^{n^{2}} \frac 1 x\, dx$ which is $\log\, n$.
