IMC 2017 Problem 9

    Define the sequence f1,f2,…:[0,1)→Rf_1,f_2,\ldots :[0,1)\to \mathbb{R} of continuously differentiable functions by the following recurrence: f1=1;fn+1′=fnfn+1on (0,1) ,andfn+1(0)=1.f_1=1; f_{n+1}'=f_nf_{n+1} \text{on $(0,1)$ }, \text{and} f_{n+1}(0)=1. Show that lim⁡n→∞fn(x)\lim\limits_{n\to \infty}f_n(x) exists for every x∈[0,1)x\in [0,1) and determine the limit function.
