Maximum radius of x in where the series converges.
R=sup{r∣series converges for∣x−c∣<r}
The below equation can be used to find R:
k→∞lim∣ak∣k1=R1
The series may converge or diverge for ∣x−c∣=R.
Range of convergence
(c−R,c+R) is the range of convergence. Aka. interval of convergence. The
series may converge or diverge at the endpoints. Endpoints must be checked
separately to find out if they must be included in the range of convergence.
The series is:
Absolutely converging for ∣x−a∣<R
Diverging for ∣x−a∣<R
Uniformly converging for ∣x−a∣≤ρ<R
Theorem 1
Suppose R∈(0,∞) and 0<p<R. Then ∀x∀n
(∣x−a∣≤p⟹sn(x)) is uniformly (and absolutely)
converging.
