Pointwise convergent, increasing sequence

561 Views Asked by At

If a sequence of increasing, absolutly continuous functions converges pointwise to a function f, does it follow that f is absolutly continuous? What if it converges uniformly?

At least for the pointwise convergence it is definitely wrong. For $f_{n}(x)=x^{n}$, $x\in[0,1]$, these are absolutely continuous, but the pointwise limit is not even continuous.

Check Dini's Theorem. An increasing sequence of point-wise convergent functions are automatically converging uniformly
