Re: Double limits at the infinity.



I'm not sure if this is related to what you asked, but there's a
condition that implies the existence of the double limit. Suppose that
for every x there exists Ly(x) = lim (y -> oo) (f(x,y) and that there
exists L = lim (x -> oo) Ly(x). In addition, suppose the "function of
functions" f(x,y) converges uniformly to Ly, in the sense that, for
every eps>0, there exists a real K, depending only on eps, such that,
if y > K, then |f(x,y) - Ly(x)| < eps for every real x. This implies
the double limit exists and equals L, that is, for every eps >0, there
exists A such that x > A and y> A implies |f(x,y - L| < eps.

Im not quite sure, but I think this also implies the existence of the
function Lx(y) = lim ( x-> oo) f(x,y) and that lim (y -> oo) Lx(y) = L.
