Analysis Question 1:
For an integer n, let fn(x) = xe−nx, where x ∈ [0, 1]. Let S := {fn : n ≥ 1}. Consider the metric space (C([0, 1]), d), where
\(\rm \displaystyle d(f, g)=\sup _{x \in[0,1]}\{|f(x)-g(x)|\}\), f, g ∈ C([0, 1]).
Which of the following statement(s) is/are false?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 1 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
Each fn(x) = xe−nx, is a continuous function on [0, 1] because it is the product of two continuous functions: x and \(e^{-nx}\) .
A family of functions S is equi-continuous if, for every \(\epsilon > 0 \), there exists a \(\delta > 0\) such that for
all \(f_n \in S\) and for all x, y \(\in\) [0, 1] with \(|x - y| < \delta\) , we have \(|f_n(x) - f_n(y)| < \epsilon\) .
For fn(x) = xe−nx :
1. As n increases, the term \(e^{-nx}\) decays very rapidly to zero for x > 0 , so the functions \(f_n(x)\) become
concentrated near x = 0 .
2. For any two points x, y close to each other, the difference \(|f_n(x) - f_n(y)|\) can be made small by choosing a
sufficiently small \(\delta\) that works uniformly for all n , because the factor e−nx does not affect small variations near x and y significantly for fixed x, y .
Thus, S is an equi-continuous family of functions. So, Option 1 is correct.
To determine if S is closed, we need to check if it contains all its limit points in the metric defined by \(d(f, g) = \sup_{x \in [0, 1]} |f(x) - g(x)| .\)
As \(n \to \infty\) ,fn(x) = xe−nx converges pointwise to the zero function f(x) = 0 on [0, 1] because \(e^{-nx} \to 0\) for x > 0 .
However, f(x) = 0 is not in S since \( f_n \)(x) for any finite n is not identically zero.
Therefore, S is not closed in C([0, 1]) because it does not contain its pointwise limit f(x) = 0 . So, Option 2 is incorrect.
To determine if S is bounded in C([0, 1]) , we compute \(\|f_n\| = \sup_{x \in [0, 1]} |f_n(x)|\) for each \( f_n \).
For fn(x) = xe−nx , the maximum value occurs near \(x = \frac{1}{n} \).
Substituting \(x = \frac{1}{n} \) :
\( f_n\left(\frac{1}{n}\right) = \frac{1}{n} e^{-1} = \frac{e^{-1}}{n}.\)
Since \(\frac{e^{-1}}{n} \to 0 \) as \(n \to \infty\) , the functions \( f_n \)(x) are uniformly bounded by a constant M = \(e^{-1}\) .
Thus, S is bounded in C([0, 1]) . So, Option 3 is correct.
A subset of C([0, 1]) is compact if it is closed, bounded, and equi-continuous (by the Arzelà-Ascoli theorem). We have shown that:
S is bounded , S is equi-continuous
However, S is not closed.
Since S is not closed, it cannot be compact. Therefore, Option 4 is incorrect.
Analysis Question 2:
Let (X, d) be a finite non‐singleton metric space. Which of the following statement/ statements is /are false?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 2 Detailed Solution
Concept:
(i) All metric spaces are Hausdorff spaces.
(ii) Finite union of open set is open
(iii) Compact set: A metric space X is said to be compact if every open covering has a finite sub-covering.
(iv) Connected set: A metric space (M, d) is said connected metric space if and only if M cannot be written as a disjoint union N = X ∪ Y where X and Y are both non-empty open subsets of M.
(v) A function f : X → Y is continuous if and only if G is open in Y implies f-1(G) is open in X
Explanation:
(X, d) be a finite non‐singleton metric space.
Let X = {x1, x2, ..., xn}
Then there exist an open ball containing xi such that B(xi) ⊆ {xi}
Then each subset of X is open.
(1) is false
\(\left\{x_{i_1}, x_{i_2}, ..., x_{i_k}\right\}\) = \(∪_{j=1}^k\{x_{i_j}\}\) is open
So, every open cover of X has a finite subcover
Hence X is compact.
(2) is correct
X can be written as X = {xi} ∪ {xi}c
So X is not connected
(3) is correct
X is a discrete metric space so every function f : X → ℝ must be continuous.
(4) is fasle
Analysis Question 3:
Let p ∶ \(\mathbb{R}\)2 → \(\mathbb{R}\) be defined by
\(p(x, y)=\left\{\begin{array}{lll} |x| & \text { if } & x \neq 0 \\ |y| & \text { if } & x=0 . \end{array}\right.\)
Which of the following statements is/are false?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 3 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
p(x,y) = 0 ⇒ |x| = 0 ⇒ x = 0, when x ≠ 0
and |y| = 0 ⇒ y=0 when x=0
∴ p(x,y) = 0 if and only if x = y = 0.
Option (1) is correct.
as |x| ≥ 0, |y| ≥ 0 for all x, y so p(x, y) ≥ 0 for all x, y.
Option (2) is correct.
for x ≠ 0, p(αx, αy) = |α x| = |α||x| = |α|p(x,y)
for x = 0, p(αx, αy) = |α y| = |α||y| = |α|p(x,y)
Hence p(αx, αy) = |α| p(x, y) for all α ∈ \(\mathbb{R}\) and for all x, y.
Option (3) is correct.
A counterexample for option (4):
Let (x1, y1) = (5,10), (x2, y2) = (-5,20) then (x1+x2,y1+y2) = (0,30)
So p(x1+x2,y1+y2) = 30 as x1+x2 = 0
nand p(x1, y1) + p(x2, y2) = |5| + |-5| = 5 + 5 = 10
as \(30 \nleq 10\) so p(x1+x2,y1+y2) \(\nleq\) p(x1+x2,y1+y2)
Option (4) is not correct.
Analysis Question 4:
Let (an)n≥1, (bn)n≥1 and (Cn)n≥1 be sequences given by
an = (-1)n (1 + e-n)
bn = max{a1.....an}, and
Cn = min{a1....an},
Which of the following statements are true?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 4 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Understanding Sequences and Their Limits:
- Sequence: An ordered list of numbers defined by a function \( a_n \) on natural numbers.
- Convergence: A sequence \( a_n \) converges if it approaches a unique real number as \( n \to \infty \).
- lim sup: The greatest accumulation point (limit of suprema of tails).
- lim inf: The smallest accumulation point (limit of infima of tails).
- Max sequence: \( b_n = \max\{a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n\} \) is non-decreasing.
- Min sequence: \( c_n = \min\{a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n\} \) is non-increasing.
Calculation:
Given,
\( a_n = (-1)^n (1 + e^{-n}) \)
⇒ For even \( n \): \( a_n \approx 1 + e^{-n} \to 1 \)
⇒ For odd \( n \): \( a_n \approx -1 - e^{-n} \to -1 \)
⇒ So the sequence oscillates between numbers close to +1 and -1, hence:
\( \lim a_n \) does not exist
Option 1: "\( a_n \) does not converge"
⇒ Correct.
Since the sequence oscillates between two values without settling on one, it diverges.
Option 2: "\( \limsup a_n = \lim b_n \)"
→ False.
\( \limsup a_n = 1 \)
\( b_n = \max\{a_1, a_2, ..., a_n\} \)
Since \( a_2 = 1 + e^{-2} > 1 \), and this is the max forever, \( b_n \to 1 + e^{-2} \)
⇒ not equal to 1
Option 3: "\( \liminf a_n = \lim c_n \)"
→ False.
\( \liminf a_n = -1 \)
\( a_1 = -1 - e^{-1} \) which is minimum forever ⇒ \( c_n = -1 - e^{-1} \) for all large \( n \)
So \( \lim c_n = -1 - e^{-1} \ne -1 \)
Option 4: "\( \lim b_n = \lim c_n \)"
→ False.
As shown, \( \lim b_n = 1 + e^{-2} \)
\( \lim c_n = -1 - e^{-1} \)
Hence, not equal
∴ Only correct statement is Option 1.
Analysis Question 5:
Let F : ℝ → ℝ be a continuous function such that f(x) = 0 for all x ≤ 0 and for all x ≥ 1, Define
\(\rm F(x)=\Sigma_{n=-\infty}^\infty f(x+n), x \in R\)

Analysis Question 6 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept:
A function f(x,y) is defined for (x,y) = (a,b) is said to be continuous at (x,y) = (a,b) if:
i) f(a,b) = value of f(x,y) at (x,y) = (a,b) is finite.
ii) The limit of the function f(x,y) as (x,y) → (a,b) exists and equal to the value of f(x,y) at (x,y) = (a,b)
\(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\left( {x,y} \right) \to \left( {0,0} \right)} f\left( {x,y} \right) = f\left( {a,b} \right)\)
Note:
For a function to be differentiable at a point, it should be continuous at that point too.
Calculation:
Given:
\(f\left( {x,y} \right) = \;\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\frac{{xy}}{{\sqrt {{x^2} + {y^2}} }}\;\;\;{x^2} + {y^2} \ne 0}\\ {0\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;x = y = 0} \end{array}} \right.\)
For function f(x,y) to be continuous:
\(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\left( {x,y} \right) \to \left( {0,0} \right)} f\left( {x,y} \right) = f\left( {a,b} \right)\) and finite.
f(a,b) = f(0,0) ⇒ 0 (given)
\(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\left( {r,\theta } \right) \to \left( {0,0} \right)} f\left( {r,\theta} \right) =\frac{ r^2cos\theta rsin\theta }{r} \) = 0
fx(0, 0) = \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\left( {h,0 } \right) \to \left( {0,0} \right)}\){f(h, 0) - f(0, 0)} / h = 0
fy(0, 0) = \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\left( {0,k } \right) \to \left( {0,0} \right)}\){f(0, k) - f(0, 0)} / k = 0
∵ the limit value is defined and function value is 0 at (x,y) = (0,0), ∴ the function f(x,y) is continuous.
Hence, Option 2, 3 & 4 all are correct
Hence, Option 1 is not correct
Hence, The Correct Answer is option 1.

Leibniz's test: A series of the form \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\)(-1)nbn, where either all bn are positive or all bn are negative is convergent if
(i) |bn| decreases monotonically i.e., |bn+1| ≤ |bn|
(ii) \(\lim_{n\to\infty}b_n=0\)
Explanation:
an = (−1)n+1\(\rm (\sqrt{n+1}−\sqrt{n})\)
= (−1)n+1 \(\rm \frac{(\sqrt{n+1}−\sqrt{n})(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\)
= (−1)n+1\(\rm \frac{1}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\)
So series is \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\)\(\rm \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\)
So here bn = \(\rm \frac{1}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\), bn+1 = \(\rm \frac{1}{(\sqrt{n+2}+\sqrt{n+1})}\)
\(\frac{b_{n+1}}{b_n}<1\) so bn+1 < bn
Also \(\lim_{n\to\infty}b_n\) = \(\lim_{n\to\infty}\) \(\rm \frac{1}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\) = 0
Hence by Leibnitz's test \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\) an is convergent.
Now the series is \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\)\(\rm |\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}|\) = \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\)\(\rm \frac{1}{(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}\) = \(\rm\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\) \(\rm \frac{1}{\sqrt n(\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{n}}+1)}\)
Hence by Limit comparison Test, it is divergent series by P - Test.
Hence the given series is conditionally convergent.

How many real roots does the polynomial x3 + 3x − 2023 have?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 9 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept:
Every odd degree polynomial p(x) ∈ R(x) has at least a real root
Explanation:
p(x) = x3 + 3x − 2023
p'(x) = 3x2 + 3
Since x2 ≥ 0 for all x so
3x2 + 3 > 0 ⇒ p'(x) > 0
Therefore p'(x) has no real roots
We know that between two distinct real roots of p(x) there exist a real root of p'(x).
Since here p'(x) no real roots, so p(x) can't have more than one real root
Option (2) correct

Limit of a Sequence of Functions:
1. Let \(\{f_n\}\) be a sequence of functions defined on a set D . We say that \(f_n\) converges pointwise to a function
f on D if, for every x \(\in\) D
\(\lim_{n \to \infty} f_n(x) = f(x).\)
2. A stronger form of convergence is uniform convergence. The sequence \(\{f_n\}\) converges uniformly to a function f on D if
\(\lim_{n \to \infty} \sup_{x \in D} |f_n(x) - f(x)| = 0.\)
Explanation: The problem gives a sequence of functions\( f_n: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}\) defined by
\(f_n(x) = \frac{x^2}{\sqrt{x^2 + \frac{1}{n}}}\)
and asks about the limit of \(f_n(x) \) as \(n \to \infty \), denoted by \( f(x)\) . We are tasked with determining which statement about f(x) is true.
We are asked to take the limit \(n \to \infty \) of the function:
\(f_n(x) = \frac{x^2}{\sqrt{x^2 + \frac{1}{n}}} \)
As \(n \to \infty \), the term \(\frac{1}{n} \to 0 \). So, for large n , the function \(f_n(x) \) approaches
\(lim_{n \to \infty} f_n(x) = \frac{x^2}{\sqrt{x^2}} = \frac{x^2}{|x|}\)
Case 1: \(x \neq 0\)
For \(x \neq 0\) we have, \( f(x) = \frac{x^2}{|x|} = |x|\)
Case 2: \(x =0\)
When \(x =0\) , the function becomes \(f_n(0) = \frac{0^2}{\sqrt{0^2 + \frac{1}{n}}} = 0\)
Therefore, as \(n \to \infty \), we get f(0) = 0 .
The function f(x) , \(n \to \infty \) , is given by
\( f(x) = \begin{cases} |x|, & \text{if } x \neq 0 \\ 0, & \text{if } x = 0 \end{cases} \)
This function is equal to |x| for all \(x \in \mathbb{R} \),
Therefore, The correct option is 4).
Let C be the collection of all sets S such that the power set of S is countably infinite. Which of the following statements is true?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Analysis Question 13 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept:
1. Power Set: The power set of a set S, denoted \( \mathcal{P}(S) \), is the set of all subsets of S.
If S has \(n\) elements, then \( \mathcal{P}(S) \) contains \( 2^n \) elements.
2. Countably Infinite Set: A set is countably infinite if its elements can be put into a one-to-one
correspondence with the natural numbers (i.e., it has the same cardinality as \(\mathbb{N} \) ).
3. Uncountably Infinite Set: A set is uncountable if it is not countably infinite (for example, the real numbers \( \mathbb{R} \) ).
4. Power Set and Cardinality: If the power set \( \mathcal{P}(S) \) is countably infinite, then S cannot be finite.
This is because for any finite set S, its power set \( \mathcal{P}(S) \) has \( 2^n \) elements, where \(n\) is the number of
elements in \(S\), and \( 2^n \) is always finite. Additionally, if \(S\) is uncountably infinite, then its power
set \( \mathcal{P}(S) \) will be uncountably infinite.
Explanation:
Option 1: This cannot be true because if \(S\) is finite, its power set will also be finite, not countably infinite.
Option 2: This is incorrect option because if \(S\) is any countably infinite set then its power set must be uncountable.
Option 3: This cannot be true because if \(S\) were uncountable, its power set would be uncountable as well.
Option 4: This is true, as there is no countably infinite set whose power set is countably infinite, so C is empty.
The correct option is 4).

Let 𝑇 ∶ ℝ4 → ℝ4 be a linear transformation and the null space of 𝑇 be the subspace of ℝ4 given by
{(𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3, 𝑥4) ∈ ℝ4 ∶ 4𝑥1 + 3𝑥2 + 2𝑥3 + 𝑥4 = 0}.
If 𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑘(𝑇 − 3𝐼) = 3, where 𝐼 is the identity map on ℝ4
Concept -
(i) The dimension of subspace = dim (V) - number of restriction
(ii) Rank - Nullity theorem -
η (T) + ρ (T) = n where n is the dimension of the vector space or the order of the matrix.
(iii) The formula for Geometric multiplicity (GM) is = η(T - λ I)
(iv) AM ≥ GM
(v) If the rank of A is less than n this implies that |A| = 0
Explanation -
we have null space {(𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3, 𝑥4) ∈ ℝ4 ∶ 4𝑥1 + 3𝑥2 + 2𝑥3 + 𝑥4 = 0}
Now the dimension of null space = dim (V) - number of restriction = 4 - 1 = 3
Hence the nullity of T is 3 so this implies rank of T is 1. [by rank - Nullity theorem]
i.e. \(ρ(T) =1 \ \ and \ \ η (T) =3\)
Now the formula for Geometric multiplicity (GM) is = η(T - λ I)
if we take λ = 0 then GM = 3 for λ = 0 and we know that AM ≥ GM then AM = 3, 4 only because it is not greater than the dimension of vector space.
But we have the another condition 𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑘(𝑇 − 3𝐼) = 3 < dim (ℝ4) then |𝑇 − 3𝐼| = 0
hence λ = 3 is another eigen value of the transformation. and we have 𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑘(𝑇 − 3𝐼) = 3 ⇒ η(𝑇 − 3𝐼) = 1
Hence the eigen values of T is 0,0,0 and 3.
Now the characteristic polynomial of T is 𝑥3 (𝑥 − 3) and the minimal polynomial of T is x(x - 3).
Hence the option(1) is correct.
Let x, y ∈ [0, 1] be such that x ≠ y. Which of the following statements is true for every ϵ > 0?

Archimedian Property of real:
Let a, b ∈ ℝ and a > 0 then ∃ N ∈ ℕ such that na > b, ∀ n ≥ N (fix natural number)
Explanation -
Let ε = a and b = |x - y|
⇒ ∃ N ∈ ℕ such that nε > b = |x - y| ∀ n > N
→ 2n ε > nε > |x - y| ∀ n ≥ N
⇒ 2n ε > |x - y| ∀ n ≥ N
So, option (1) is true
For option (2):
Let x = 0, y = 1 and ε = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
⇒ |x - y| = 1
If possible let 2n ε < |x - y|
i.e. 2n \(\frac{1}{2}\) < 1, a contradiction
So, option (2) is false.
For option (3) and (4):
Let ε = 1, x = 0 and y = 1
⇒ |x - y| = 1 but 2-n ε = \(\rm \frac{1}{2^n}\) < 1 ∀ n ∈ ℕ
So, |x - y| < 2-n ε is not true for any n ∈ ℕ.
So, Option (3) and (4) are false.
