SUMMARY
This discussion focuses on demonstrating the convergence of the sequences \phi_n and \psi_n. The argument establishes that \phi_n converges to a function f by defining \tilde{\phi_n}(x) = \max_{j=1,...,n} \phi_k(x), which remains within 1/n of f and is increasing in n. The properties of \tilde{\phi_n} as a simple function are emphasized, along with the need to prove its increasing nature. The discussion also hints at a similar approach for showing the convergence of \psi_n.
