Let $F_n(x)$ be a sequence of functions from $[0, infty]$ to [0,1], suppose $F_n(x)$ is monotone in x, and $F_n(x)$ converges uniformly to $F(x) = e^-x$. Find a counter example such that the following statement is not true:



$exists NinmathbbN, text s.t. forall n>N, forall x, F_n(x)<e^-fracx2$.



This is in analog to convergence of sequence:



$a_nto a, |a|<infty$, then $forall b>a, exists NinmathbbN, texts.t. forall n>N, a_n<b$.



Remark: an non counter example is $F_n(x) = e^-fracx1+frac1n$

          Take $F_n(x)=frac e^-x+frac 1 n 1+frac 1 n $. For large $x$ we don't have $F_n(x) <e^-x/2$.

                    Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite My aim is to smooth the terrain in a video game. Therefore I contrived an algorithm that makes use of Bézier curves of different orders. But this algorithm is defined in a two dimensional space for now. To shift it into the third dimension I need to somehow combine the Bézier curves. Given two curves in each two dimensions, how can I combine them to build a surface? I thought about something like a curve of a curve. Or maybe I could multiply them somehow. How can I combine them to cause the wanted behavior? Is there a common approach? In the image you can see the input, on the left, and the output, on the right, of the algorithm that works in a two dimensional space. For the real application there is a three dimensional input. The algorithm relays only on the adjacent tiles. Given these it will define the control points of the mentioned Bézier cur...
