Homework Statement


Normed space (l^\infty,\|\cdot\|_\infty) with subspace S\subset l^\infty consisting of convergent sequences x=(x_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}.

Given a sequence of maps A_n:l^\infty\to\mathbb{R} defined as $$A_n(x)=\sup_{i\in\mathbb{N}}\frac{1}{n}\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}x_{i+j}$$need to show that for any x\in S one has$$\lim_{n\to\infty}A_n(x)=\lim_{n\to\infty}x_n.$$

Homework Equations


Already shown that for any x\in l^\infty the sequence A_n(x) is monotone decreasing in n and is bounded by \|x\|_\infty therefore is convergent.

The Attempt at a Solution


It's more or less clear to me that if a sequence converges then a sequence of "averages" also converges, but I am struggling to find a way to write this out explicitly.

nevermind, solved it myself via evaluations from both sides
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
