Real Analysis II · Uniform Convergence

Derivative interchange theorem

Problem

Let a<b and x₀∈[a,b]. Suppose f_n∈C¹[a,b], the scalar sequence f_n(x₀) converges, and f_n' converges uniformly on [a,b] to g. Prove f_n converges uniformly to a differentiable f with f'=g on (a,b).

Hint

Write every f_n relative to the common base point x₀ using the fundamental theorem.
