  • The purpose of this study is to find out the problems which are caused when the limit concept of sequences is learned through an intuitive definition and to suggest a way of solving those problems. Students in Korea study the limit concept of sequences through an intuitive definition. They fail to apply the intuitive definition properly to the problems and they are apt to have misconception even though the Intuitive definition is applied properly. To solve these problems, this study examined the develop- mental process of the limit concept of sequences from the Intuitive definition to the formal definition, and looked into the way of students' internalization of the process through a field study. In this study, the levels of the limit concept of sequences possessed by the students at ZPD are as follows; level 0 : Students understand the limit concept of sequences through the intuitive definition. level 1 : Students understand the limit concept of sequences as 'The difference between $\alpha$$_{n}$ and $\alpha$ approaches 0' rather than 'The sequence approaches $\alpha$ infinitely.' level 2 : Students understand the limit concept of sequences through the formal definition. The levels of students' limit concept development were analysed by those criteria. Almost of the students who studied the limit concept of sequences through the intuitive defition stayed at level 0, whereas almost of the students who studied through the formal definition stayed at level 1. Through the study, I found that it was difficult for the students to develop the higher level of understanding for themselves but the teachers and peers could help the students to progress to the higher level. Students' learning ability was one of major factors that make the students progress to the higher level of understanding as the concept was developed hierarchically from Level 0 to Level 2. If you want to see your students get to the higher level of understanding in the limit concept, you need to facilitate them to fully develop understanding in lower levels through enough experiences so that they can be promoted to the highest level.

  • In this note we prove a functional central. limit theorem for LPQD sequences, statisfying some moment conditions. No stationarity is required. Our results imply an extension of Birkel's functional central limit theorem for associated processt'S to an LPQD sequence and an improvement of Birkel's functional central limit theorem for LPQD sequences.

  • In 2005, Patterson studied lacunary statistical convergence of double sequences of real numbers and, in 2009, Mursaleen introduced notion of lacunary statistical convergence of single sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed space. The current work intends to investigate the lacunary statistical convergence of double sequences and some significant conclusions on the algebra of the lacunary statistical limit of double sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed space. In addition, we have studied some examples to support the definitions.

  • In this paper, we survey various notions and results related to statistical convergence of a sequence of fuzzy numbers, in which statistical convergence for fuzzy numbers was first introduced by Nuray and Savas in 1995. We will go over boundedness, convergence of sequences of fuzzy numbers, statistically convergence and statistically Cauchy sequences of fuzzy numbers, statistical limit and cluster point for sequences of fuzzy numbers, statistical mono-tonicity and boundedness of a sequence of fuzzy numbers and finally statistical limit inferior and limit inferior for the statistically bounded sequences of fuzzy numbers.

  • In this article convergent sequences with natural number terms are investigated and the behaviors of tails and limits of these natural number sequences are explored. Firstly this study showed how the pre-service teachers response to the intuitive limit definition using "getting closer" for constant sequences. As a case of convergent natural sequences, the sequences in which the latter term is determined by the sum of digit squares of the former term are considered. To exploring these sequences the computational and charting capabilities of spreadsheets are utilized and some mathematical findings are obtained. Spreadsheet can be instrumentalized by teachers or students to provide a laboratory-like environment to explore a mathematical problem.

  • In this note we prove an invariance principle for strictly stationary linear positive quadrant dependent sequences, satifying some assumption on the covariance structure, $0 < \sum Cov(X_1,X_j) < \infty$. This result is an extension of Burton, Dabrowski and Dehlings' invariance principle for weakly associated sequences to LPQD sequences as well as an improvement of Newman's central limit theorem for LPQD sequences.

  • In this paper, we introduce rough statistical convergence of difference double sequences in normed linear spaces as an extension of rough convergence. We define the set of rough statistical limit points of a difference double sequence and analyze the results with proofs.
