Can a sequence of functions converge to $0$ in only one $L_p$ space?












0














Let $1<p<infty$, and suppose that $f_n$ converges to $0$ in the $L_q$ norm for all $qneq p$ where $1leq q<infty$? My question is, is it possible for $f_n$ to not converge to $0$ in the $L_p$ norm?



If there doesn't exist such a sequence of functions, does there at least a sequence of functions which does not converges to $0$ in some $L_p$ for $1leq p<infty$ but converges to $0$ in every $L_q$ for $1<q<p$, and another sequence of functions which does not converge to $0$ in $L_p$ but converges to $0$ in every $L_q$ for $q>p$?

          No such sequence exists by Hölder's inequality. This is in Folland's book.

          For the second question, you can do something analogous to what I did in my previous answer.

          • Thanks for your answer, but I was hoping for something with $L_q$'s on both sides. That is, I want $p$ to be greater than $1$ and to have the sequence converge for all $L_q$ where $q$ can be either less than or greater than $p$ (but still gretar than or equal to 1). I'll modify my question to change greater than or equal to greater than.

But your previous answer at least addressed the case where it converges to $0$ in all $L_q$'s for $q>1$ but not for $L_1$. But now what about the opposite case, a sequence of functions which converges to $0$ in all $L_q$'s $q$ between $1$ and $p$ (where $p$>1), but doesn't converge to $0$ in $L_p$?
