Now its Taylor series centered at z 0 converges on any disc B(z 0, r) with r < |z − z 0 |, where the same Taylor series converges at z ∈ C. Therefore, Taylor series of f centered at 0 converges on B (0, 1) and it does not converge for any z ∈ C with | z | > 1 due to the poles at i and − i .
That is, the Taylor series diverges at x if the distance between x and b is larger than the radius of convergence. The Taylor series can be used to calculate the value of an entire function at every point, if the value of the function, and of all of its derivatives, are known at a single point. Uses of the Taylor series for analytic functions ...
For a power series f defined as: = = (),where a is a complex constant, the center of the disk of convergence,; c n is the n-th complex coefficient, and; z is a complex variable.; The radius of convergence r is a nonnegative real number or such that the series converges if
The earliest person to whom the series can be attributed with confidence is Mādhava of Sangamagrāma (c. 1340 – c. 1425). The original reference (as with much of Mādhava's work) is lost, but he is credited with the discovery by several of his successors in the Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics founded by him.
Linear approximations in this case are further improved when the second derivative of a, ″ (), is sufficiently small (close to zero) (i.e., at or near an inflection point). If f {\displaystyle f} is concave down in the interval between x {\displaystyle x} and a {\displaystyle a} , the approximation will be an overestimate (since the ...
Days of protests have rocked Georgia following the government’s controversial decision to delay the former Soviet country’s bid to join the European Union.

A Laurent series is a generalization of the Taylor series, allowing terms with negative exponents; it takes the form = and converges in an annulus. [6] In particular, a Laurent series can be used to examine the behavior of a complex function near a singularity by considering the series expansion on an annulus centered at the singularity.
