Uniform convergence #

A sequence of functions Fₙ (with values in a metric space) converges uniformly on a set s to a function f if, for all ε > 0, for all large enough n, one has for all y ∈ s the inequality dist (f y, Fₙ y) < ε. Under uniform convergence, many properties of the Fₙ pass to the limit, most notably continuity. We prove this in the file, defining the notion of uniform convergence in the more general setting of uniform spaces, and with respect to an arbitrary indexing set endowed with a filter (instead of just ℕ with at_top).

Main results #

Let α be a topological space, β a uniform space, Fₙ and f be functions from αto β (where the index n belongs to an indexing type ι endowed with a filter p).

tendsto_uniformly_on F f p s: the fact that Fₙ converges uniformly to f on s. This means that, for any entourage u of the diagonal, for large enough n (with respect to p), one has (f y, Fₙ y) ∈ u for all y ∈ s.
tendsto_uniformly F f p: same notion with s = univ.
tendsto_uniformly_on.continuous_on: a uniform limit on a set of functions which are continuous on this set is itself continuous on this set.
tendsto_uniformly.continuous: a uniform limit of continuous functions is continuous.
tendsto_uniformly_on.tendsto_comp: If Fₙ tends uniformly to f on a set s, and gₙ tends to x within s, then Fₙ gₙ tends to f x if f is continuous at x within s.
tendsto_uniformly.tendsto_comp: If Fₙ tends uniformly to f, and gₙ tends to x, then Fₙ gₙ tends to f x.

We also define notions where the convergence is locally uniform, called tendsto_locally_uniformly_on F f p s and tendsto_locally_uniformly F f p. The previous theorems all have corresponding versions under locally uniform convergence.

Implementation notes #

Most results hold under weaker assumptions of locally uniform approximation. In a first section, we prove the results under these weaker assumptions. Then, we derive the results on uniform convergence from them.

Different notions of uniform convergence #

We define uniform convergence and locally uniform convergence, on a set or in the whole space.

Uniform approximation #

In this section, we give lemmas ensuring that a function is continuous if it can be approximated uniformly by continuous functions. We give various versions, within a set or the whole space, at a single point or at all points, with locally uniform approximation or uniform approximation.

Composing limits under uniform convergence #

In general, if Fₙ converges pointwise to a function f, and gₙ tends to x, it is not true that Fₙ gₙ tends to f x. It is true however if the convergence of Fₙ to f is uniform. In this paragraph, we prove variations around this statement.
