Uniform convergence after transforming?
$begingroup$
I face a problem now, it is known that $f_n(x)$ converge to $+infty$ pointwise as $nrightarrow+infty$, but I want to prove $f_n(x)$ converge to $+infty$ uniformly.
I can prove $arctan f_n(x)$ converges to $frac{pi}{2}$ uniformly. Does this imply that $f_n(x)$ converge to $+infty$ uniformly?

You need two variables to talk about uniform convergence. As it stands it is difficult to understand what you are saying. And how is probability involved here?

Yes it does, because $tan$ is a bijective and increasing mapping from $[0, frac pi 2)$ to $[0, infty) $.
More detailed: Given $M > 0$ we have that $0 < arctan M < frac pi 2$. The uniform convergence of $arctan f_n(x) to frac pi 2$ implies the existence of an $n_0 in Bbb N$ such that
$$
arctan f_n(x) > arctan M text{ for all $n ge n_0$ and all $x$.}
$$
It follows that
$$
f_n(x) > M text{ for all $n ge n_0$ and all $x$.}

Assume we have a sequence of functions $f_n(x)$ defined on some set $Dsubset mathbb{R}$ such that $arctan f_n(x) to pi/2$ uniformly on $D$. We prove that $f_n $ converge to $+infty$ uniformly, i.e.
$$
forall A > 0 exists N = N(A) in mathbb{N} text{such that if } n>N text{ then } f_n(x) > A forall x in D.
$$
Assume for contradiction, that the above does not hold, that is
$$
tag{1} exists A > 0 text{s.t.} forall N in mathbb{N} exists x_N in D text{s.t.} f_N(x_N) leq A .
$$
In view of uniform convergence of $arctan f_n$ we have that for any $varepsilon > 0$ there is $N = N(varepsilon) in mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n> N$ then $|arctan f_n(x) - pi/2| < varepsilon$ for all $xin D$ . Combining this with $(1)$ and using the fact that $arctan$ is increasing, from $(1)$ we get
$$
pi/2 - varepsilon < arctan f_n(x_n) leq arctan A < pi/2 tag{2}
$$
if $n>N(varepsilon)$.
Since $A>0$ is fixed, we can choose $varepsilon> 0$ small enough to make the inequality $(2)$ false. This contradiction proves uniform convergence of $f_n$ to $pi/2$ on $D$.

Assume we have a sequence of functions $f_n(x)$ defined on some set $Dsubset mathbb{R}$ such that $arctan f_n(x) to pi/2$ uniformly on $D$. We prove that $f_n $ converge to $+infty$ uniformly, i.e.
$$
forall A > 0 exists N = N(A) in mathbb{N} text{such that if } n>N text{ then } f_n(x) > A forall x in D.
$$
Assume for contradiction, that the above does not hold, that is
$$
tag{1} exists A > 0 text{s.t.} forall N in mathbb{N} exists x_N in D text{s.t.} f_N(x_N) leq A .
$$
In view of uniform convergence of $arctan f_n$ we have that for any $varepsilon > 0$ there is $N = N(varepsilon) in mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n> N$ then $|arctan f_n(x) - pi/2| < varepsilon$ for all $xin D$ . Combining this with $(1)$ and using the fact that $arctan$ is increasing, from $(1)$ we get
$$
pi/2 - varepsilon < arctan f_n(x_n) leq arctan A < pi/2 tag{2}
$$
if $n>N(varepsilon)$.
Since $A>0$ is fixed, we can choose $varepsilon> 0$ small enough to make the inequality $(2)$ false. This contradiction proves uniform convergence of $f_n$ to $pi/2$ on $D$.
