Question:

Let (xn) be a sequence of real numbers. Consider the set P = {n\(\isin\N:x_n\gt x_m\) for all \(m\isin\N\) with \(m\gt n\)}. Then which of the following is/are true?

Updated On: Oct 1, 2024
  • If P is finite, then (xn) has a monotonically increasing subsequence.
  • If P is finite, then no subsequence of (xn) is monotonically increasing.
  • If P is infinite, then (xn) has a monotonically decreasing subsequence.
  • If P is infinite, then no subsequence of (xn) is monotonically decreasing.
