real analysis - Continuity and almost everywhere convergence




(Folland 2.37) Suppose that fn and f are measurable complex-valued functions,
and ϕ:CC. If ϕ is continuous and
fnf a.e., then ϕfnϕf almost
everywhere.




My Proof:



Since fnf a.e. it follows that N={x:limn(fnf)0}

is a null set.



Since ϕ is continuous, it follows that ε>0,
δ>0 s.t. x, fk(x)∈>(fn(x))n1 ||fk(x)f(x)||<δ||(ϕ>fk)(x)(ϕf)(x)||<ε

Now suppose

w s.t. ε>0 s.t. K∈>N, kK with ||(ϕfk)(x)(ϕ>f)(x)||ε.



By continuty of ϕ it follows that δ>0 such that
KN kK with ||fk(w)>f(w)||δ.



Thus wN, and so ϕfnϕf everywhere
except on a set of measure zero.





My question is this: I am trying to be very specific with my definition of continuity and limits, and I am not sure if I have been successful. In particular, I am not sure if the section:




Now suppose w s.t. ε>0 s.t. K>∈N, kK with ||(ϕfk)(x)>(ϕf)(x)||ε.



By continuty of ϕ it follows that δ>0 such that

KN kK with ||fk(w)>f(w)||δ.




is valid. Any advice on this proof would be useful.


Answer



I'm not really following the notation in your proof. Here is how I would write it:



Suppose limnfn(x)=f(x) and let ε>0. By continuity of φ, we can choose δ>0 such that |φ(f(x))φ(y)|<ε when |f(x)y|<δ. Then we can choose N such that nN implies |f(x)fn(x)|<δ. It follows that |φ(f(x))φ(fn(x))|<ε


for nN, as desired.
