2.D. Let $(A_n)$ be a sequence of subsets of a set $X$. If $A$ consists of all $x \in X$ which belong to infinitely many of the sets $A_n$, show that $\mathcal{A} = \bigcap_{m=1}^{\infty} \left[ \bigcup_{n=m}^{\infty} A_n \right]$. The set $A$ is often called the limit superior of the sets $(A_n)$ and denoted by $\lim \sup A_n$.

Let S be a nonempty subset of R. Prove that if a number u in R has the properties: (i) for every n ∈ N the number u - 1/n is not an upper bound of S, and (ii) for every n ∈ N the number u + 1/n is an upper bound of S, then u = sup S.

Problem 11_ Let Sn be a bounded sequence in R. Let A be the set of a R such that {n € N : Sn < a} is finite, i.e . all but finitely many Sn are ≥ a. Let B be the set of b € R such that {n € N Sn > b} is finite: Prove sup A = lim inf_ Sn and inf B = lim sup Sn"
