Factorial estimate for Picard iteration

ID: factorial-estimate-for-picard-iteration

For Picard iteration , , assume and a Lipschitz constant on a rectangle containing every iterate. The first difference is at most . Integrating the preceding bound multiplied by proves the displayed estimate by mathematical induction. Its uniform bounds sum to a convergent exponential series for every finite , so the Weierstrass M-test gives uniform convergence without requiring .
