Fridy, J.A.
Statistical limit points. (English)

Summary: Following the concept of a statistically convergent sequence $x$, we define a statistical limit point of $x$ as a number $\lambda$ that is the limit of a subsequence $\{x\sb{k(j)}\}$ of $x$ such that the set $\{k(j):j\in{\bold N}\}$ does not have density zero. Similarly, a statistical cluster point of $x$ is a number $\gamma$ such that for every $\varepsilon>0$ the set $\{k\in\bbfN:\vert x\sb k- \gamma\vert<\varepsilon\}$ does not have density zero. These concepts, which are not equivalent, are compared to the usual concept of limit point of a sequence. Statistical analogues of limit point results are obtained. For example, if $x$ is a bounded sequence then $x$ has a statistical cluster point but not necessarily a statistical limit point. Also, if the set $M:=\{k\in\bbfN:x\sb k>x\sb{k+1}\}$ has density one and $x$ is bounded on $M$, then $x$ is statistically convergent.
