Convergence tests for a complex series? - Mathematics Stack …
Absolute convergence of complex series implies convergence. The common series tests for real series actually establish absolute convergence, so the ratio test, for example, carries over. But some complex series converge conditionally, just like real series. So this is …
calculus - Convergence of a series with factorials, ratio test ...
$\begingroup$ @Dostre: Combining this with sos440's comment gives a good picture. You can only cancel factorials when the bases (don't know if that is a good word, but looking for the thing you take factorial of) match, but if the bases are close, you can take out the factors necessary to make them match. $\endgroup$
Series where the usual convergence tests fail
2012年6月24日 · There are a lot of series for which we do not even know whether they converge or not. For instance, the convergence of the series $$\sum_{n} \dfrac{\mu(n)}{n^s}$$ for $\text{Re}(s) \in (1/2,1)$ is essentially equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. Hence, new techniques and ideas are needed to analyze convergence in this case.
best convergence tests of polynomial series? - Mathematics Stack …
Notice that if the terms don't go to zero, the series can't converge. For the third one, there's a simple comparision test to a series I expect you know about. For the second, compare to the sum of $(2/5)^n$.
How to choose a convergence test for a given infinite series?
2015年1月5日 · My question is if there is any way to tell what test is appropriate to start with just by looking at the series. At the moment I usually follow my own pattern and systematically try different tests. What I do is: Divergence test to see if the series is divergent. If its unsuccessful; Ratio test, if unsuccessful; Limit comparison test; etc

2016年3月11日 · Those convergence tests help you determine where power series make sense. Infinite series are also used to define new functions (e.g., Bessel functions, zeta-functions, elliptic functions), to extend the meaning of familiar functions to new settings (e.g., the exponential or sine of a matrix or of a complex number ), and to solve differential ...
Does a series have to start from 1 to be able to apply convergence …
2014年4月30日 · Studying the nature of a series means proving if a series converges or diverges. The series sums from n=1 to n=infinity and sums from n=x to n=infinity have the same nature, so the test can be made for any of the series. That is so because finitely terms of the series do not change the nature of the series.

Convergence/Divergence of the recursive series
2018年3月28日 · Does the following series $ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n $ converge or diverge? $$ a_1 = 3, \quad a_{n+1} = \left( \frac{n}{n+1} \right) a_n $$ We were taught a bunch of different methods such as limit comparison, ratio test, root test and etc. However, this series is recursive so I am not quite sure how to approach it.
