How one can prove $$|\{x\in[0,2\pi] : \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} e^{inx} \ \ \ \text{exists}\}| = 0$$ where $|\cdot|$ denotes the Lebesgue measure. Any hints please?

Suppose $\{e^{inx}\}$ converges. Then what is $$ \lim_{n\to\infty}\bigl(e^{i(n+1)x}-e^{inx}\bigr)? $$ What does it tell you about $x$?

1Thank you! So that limit would be $0$ and this implies that $e^{ix}=1$ therefore $x\in {2\pi n : n \in Z}$ and the latter set has measure $0$. Correct? – user285292 Oct 30 '15 at 23:39
