Is it possible to determine the convergence of a series $\sum a_n$ by evaluating $$\lim_{n \to \infty} \log_n(a_n)$$ and comparing the result to $-1$? Specifically, if this limit is less than $-1$, ...

Here is the definition of an analytic map. ANALYTIC MAP Let $ E$ and $ F$ be Banach spaces. A map $f \colon E\to F $ is analytic at $ x=0$ if $$ f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}a_k(x) \tag 1 $$ where for ...

Suppose that $\sum_{n = 0}^\infty a_n$ is absolutely convergent and $\{P_1,\ldots, P_r\}$ is a partition of $\mathbb{N}$ (i.e. $\bigcup_{i=1}^r P_i = \mathbb{N}$ and $P_i \cap P_j = \emptyset$ for any ...

What is the best way to describe the relation between the ring of formal power series $\mathbb C[[X]]$ and the actual complex power series? I understand both separately, but I have never seen them ...

For $\mathop\sum\limits_{{n = 1}}^{\infty }{a}_{n}$, if for any subsequence $\left\{ {a}_{{n}_{k}}\right\}$, we have the convergences of $\mathop\sum\limits_{{k = 1}}^{\infty }{a}_{{n}_{k}}$ then by ...
