When I was starting out as a grad student, I remember being frustrated with analysis problems where it didn't use DIRECTLY the things we spent so much time proving in class.

As an example, let's look at a standard real analysis problem:

(1/23)


The problem looks like it can be done using the dominated convergence theorem.

This is an important theorem and is used in a lot of places outside a grad real analysis class. A student would go through a lot of buildup leading to this theorem.

(2/23)

Now, let's see whether the conditions for DCT are satisfied.

First, for fixed 00 as n->infinity.

So we have a.e. convergence of the integrand in [0,1].

To the student, this builds a stronger case to use DCT to solve the problem.

Finding an integrable dominating function is where the problem starts.

It would seem NATURAL (at least for me) to bound it with:

p.s. it feels "natural" to me because it is reminiscent of squeeze theorem problems, math students encounter in calculus.

(4/23)


However, 1/x^n is not integrable in (0,1) and hence cannot be (further) dominated by an integrable function.

So, what I would do is since I know it converges a.e. to 1, maybe it converges uniformly to 1?

This leads me into a BAD detour.
