Dominated convergence theorem on $F(x) = int_{0}^{infty} e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t}dt$












2












$begingroup$


Consider the function:
$$F(x) = int_{0}^{infty} e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t}dt$$
Here $x in mathbb{R}^{+}$. I want to use the dominated convergence theorem to show that:
$$lim_{x to infty} F(x) = lim_{x to infty} int_{0}^{infty} e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t}dt = int_{0}^{infty} lim_{x to infty} e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t}dt = 0$$



So to get the limit in the integral, there are $2$ conditions. First, the sequence of integrable functions $f_x(t) = e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t} $ needs to converge to $f(t) = 0$ for $x to infty$, which is satisfied. Secondly, you need to estimate the function $f_x(t)$ from above so that:
$$|f_x(t)| leq g(t)$$
Here $g: mathbb{R} to [0, infty]$ is a integrable function. In this case we get:
$$|f_x(t)| = |e^{-xt}frac{sin(t)}{t}| leq |e^{-xt}| leq g(t) $$
The problem is, is that I can't find a function $g(t)$ which fulfills this condition and is independent of $x$. If such a $g(t)$ exists, then we can use the dominated convergence theorem.

          Hint: Since we are taking limit as $xto infty$, we can assume that $xge 1$. Observe that
          $$
          e^{-xt}leq e^{-t}
          $$
          for all $xgeq 1$.
