Nov 30, 2016 at 22:00 comment added Pietro Majer It is true that for any $f$ LSC and $g$ USC on $X$, with $f\ge g$, there is a continuous $h$ in between. It's Katetov's insertion theorem, actually a characterization of normal spaces $X$.
Nov 30, 2016 at 21:56 comment added Pietro Majer Xifeng Su: no, not even if you assume all $f_n$ and $g_n$ to be continuous: take $X:=[0,1]$, $g_n(x)=\min( nx_+,1)$, $f_n(x)=\min( (nx+1)_+,1)$.

Nov 30, 2016 at 19:00 comment added Xifeng Su Thank Fedor Petrov! What about $\{f_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is lower semi continuous, decreasing and $\{g_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is upper semi-continuous, increasing and $f_n(x)\geq g_n(x)$? Is it true to construct a continuous function $h(x)$ in between?
Nov 30, 2016 at 15:00 comment added Fedor Petrov What if $X=[-1,1]$, $f_n$ are all equal to the characteristic function of $[0,1]$, $g_n$ to that of $(0,1]$?
