Let $X_n,n\geq1$ be a sequence of random variables defined on the same probability space. Show that if $X_n \to c$ in distribution, where $c$ is a constant, then also $X_n \to c$ in probability.
I am attempting to formulate an efficient proof for this claim, which I have done as follows:
Letting $F_n$ denote the distribution function for $X_n$, and $F$ is that of $c$, i.e. $$F(x)=\begin{cases} 0\;\;x\lt c\\ 1\;\;x\geq c \end{cases}$$ we have that $F_n(x)\to F(x)$ for all $x\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\{c\}$. Choose $\epsilon\gt 0$. Then $$\begin{align}\mathbb{P}(\lvert X_n-c\rvert\lt\epsilon)=\mathbb{P}(\{X_n\lt c+\epsilon\}\setminus\{X_n\leq c-\epsilon\})\\ =\mathbb{P}(X_n\lt c+\epsilon)-\mathbb{P}(X_n\leq c-\epsilon)\\ =F_n(c+\epsilon)-F_n(c-\epsilon)\\ \to1-0=1. \end{align}$$ Note $\epsilon$ arbitrary so the result follows.
My question is what is what is the precise reason / justification for the variables to be on the same probability space? At which step would this need to be used?
