Show that




$$f(x) = sum_{k=1}^{infty} dfrac{1}{k} sin left(dfrac{x}{k+1}right).$$




converges pointwise on $mathbb{R}$ and uniformly on each bounded interval in $mathbb{R}$, to a differentiable function $f$ which satisifies $vert f(x) vert leq vert x vert$ and $vert f'(x) vert leq 1$.



This problem comes from a section that covers the Weierstrass M-Test and Dirichlet's Test. I am not sure where to begin with this. Analysis really isn't my thing at this point.

I'm sorry you're just getting your answer in five years. Lets have a look at this;



Let $[a,b]subseteq Bbb{R}$ be any bounded interval, $xin [a,b]$ and $kin Bbb{N},$ then



begin{align} left|dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right|leq dfrac{1}{k}left|dfrac{x}{k+1}right|=dfrac{left|xright|}{k(k+1)} leq dfrac{left|xright|}{k(k+1)} leq dfrac{c}{k(k+1)} , end{align}
where $c:=max{|a|,|b|}quad$ [see If $xin[a,b],$ then $|x|leq max{|a|,|b|}$. Since
begin{align} sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{c}{k(k+1)} , end{align}
converges, then,
begin{align} sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) end{align}
converges uniformly on $[a,b],$ by Weierstrass-M test. Since $[a,b]subseteq Bbb{R}$ was arbitrary, then uniform convergence is true on each bounded interval in $Bbb{R}$ which also implies pointwise convergence on $Bbb{R}$. Now, for arbitrary $xinBbb{R},$



begin{align} left|f(x)right|&=left|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right|\&leq sum^{infty}_{k=1} dfrac{1}{k}left|dfrac{x}{k+1}right|\&= sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{left|xright|}{k(k+1)}\&= left|xright|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)}\&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)} \&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}left(dfrac{1}{k}-dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}left(1-dfrac{1}{n+1}right) \&= left|xright|. end{align}
Since the series converges uniformly on $[a,b],$ then we can differentiate term-term on $[a,b].$ Thus, for $xin [a,b]$
begin{align} f'(x)&=dfrac{d}{dx}sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)\&=sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}dfrac{d}{dx}left[sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right]\&=sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) , end{align}
which implies that
begin{align} left|f'(x)right|&=left|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right|\&leqsum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)left|cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) right|\&leqsum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)} \&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}left(dfrac{1}{k}-dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}left(1-dfrac{1}{n+1}right) \&= 1 end{align}
as required.

        begin{align} sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) end{align}
        converges uniformly on $[a,b],$ by Weierstrass-M test. Since $[a,b]subseteq Bbb{R}$ was arbitrary, then uniform convergence is true on each bounded interval in $Bbb{R}$ which also implies pointwise convergence on $Bbb{R}$. Now, for arbitrary $xinBbb{R},$



        begin{align} left|f(x)right|&=left|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right|\&leq sum^{infty}_{k=1} dfrac{1}{k}left|dfrac{x}{k+1}right|\&= sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{left|xright|}{k(k+1)}\&= left|xright|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)}\&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)} \&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}left(dfrac{1}{k}-dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= left|xright|limlimits_{ntoinfty}left(1-dfrac{1}{n+1}right) \&= left|xright|. end{align}
        Since the series converges uniformly on $[a,b],$ then we can differentiate term-term on $[a,b].$ Thus, for $xin [a,b]$
        begin{align} f'(x)&=dfrac{d}{dx}sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)\&=sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}dfrac{d}{dx}left[sinleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right]\&=sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) , end{align}
        which implies that
        begin{align} left|f'(x)right|&=left|sum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right)right|\&leqsum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)left|cosleft(dfrac{x}{k+1}right) right|\&leqsum^{infty}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k}left(dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}dfrac{1}{k(k+1)} \&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}sum^{n}_{k=1}left(dfrac{1}{k}-dfrac{1}{k+1}right)\&= limlimits_{ntoinfty}left(1-dfrac{1}{n+1}right) \&= 1 end{align}
        as required.
