1.Prove the following statements:

.

(a) If bn is recursively defined by bn =bn−1+3 for all integers n≥1 and b0 =2,

then bn =3n+2 for all n≥0.

.(b) If cn is recursively defined by cn =3cn−1+1 for all integers n≥1 and c0 =0,

then cn =(3n −1)/2 for all n≥0.

.(c) If dn is recursively defined by d0 = 1, d1 = 4 and dn = 4dn−1 −4dn−2 for all integers n ≥ 2,

then dn =(n+1)2n for all n≥0.

Let {an} be a sequence defined recursively by a1 = 1 and an+1 = 2√ 1 + an where n ∈ N (b) Does {an} converge or diverge? Justify your answer, making sure to cite appropriate hypotheses/theorem(s) used. Hint : Try BMCT [WHY?]. (c) (Challenge) If {an} converges then find its limit. Make sure to fully justify your answer.

Prove that if a language is not recursively enumerable, then its complement cannot be recursive. In this problem, you can use diagrams (black boxes with inputs and outputs to represent procedures and algorithms) as we used in class, in your proof. What can the complement be?
