  2. Absolute convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_convergence

    The same definition can be used for series = whose terms are not numbers but rather elements of an arbitrary abelian topological group.In that case, instead of using the absolute value, the definition requires the group to have a norm, which is a positive real-valued function ‖ ‖: + on an abelian group (written additively, with identity element 0) such that:

  3. Convergence tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_tests

    In mathematics, convergence tests are methods of testing for the convergence, conditional convergence, absolute convergence, interval of convergence or divergence of an infinite series =. List of tests

  4. Weierstrass M-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_M-test

    In mathematics, the Weierstrass M-test is a test for determining whether an infinite series of functions converges uniformly and absolutely.It applies to series whose terms are bounded functions with real or complex values, and is analogous to the comparison test for determining the convergence of series of real or complex numbers.

  5. Modes of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modes_of_convergence

    In a normed vector space, one can define absolute convergence as convergence of the series (| |). Absolute convergence implies Cauchy convergence of the sequence of partial sums (by the triangle inequality), which in turn implies absolute convergence of some grouping (not reordering). The sequence of partial sums obtained by grouping is a ...

  6. Dirichlet's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet's_test

    In mathematics, Dirichlet's test is a method of testing for the convergence of a series that is especially useful for proving conditional convergence. It is named after its author Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet , and was published posthumously in the Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées in 1862.

  7. Series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_(mathematics)

    Therefore a series with non-negative terms converges if and only if the sequence of partial sums is bounded, and so finding a bound for a series or for the absolute values of its terms is an effective way to prove convergence or absolute convergence of a series. [48] [49] [47] [50]

  8. Uniform absolute-convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_absolute-convergence

    Uniform absolute-convergence is independent of the ordering of a series. This is because, for a series of nonnegative functions, uniform convergence is equivalent to the property that, for any ε > 0, there are finitely many terms of the series such that excluding these terms results in a series with total sum less than the constant function ε ...

  9. Ratio test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio_test

    In mathematics, the ratio test is a test (or "criterion") for the convergence of a series =, where each term is a real or complex number and a n is nonzero when n is large. The test was first published by Jean le Rond d'Alembert and is sometimes known as d'Alembert's ratio test or as the Cauchy ratio test.
