Let f1(x), f2(x), … be a sequence of functions belonging to the real or complex Banach space L, (see S. Banach: [1] (The results can be generalised to functions on any space that is the union of countably many sets of finite measure). We are concerned with various properties that such a sequence may have, and in particular with the more important kinds of convergence (strong, weak and pointwise). This article shows what relations connect the various properties considered; for instance that for strong convergence (i.e. ║fn — f║ → 0) it is necessary and sufficient firstly that the sequence should converge weakly (i.e. if g is bounded and measurable then f(fn(x) — f(x))g(x)dx → 0) and secondly that any sub-sequence should contain a sub-sub-sequence converging p.p. to f(x).
