Radius Of Convergence
Radius Of Convergence The number R is called the radius of convergence of the power series ∞ Σ aₙ xⁿ and the set of all x for which n=0 |x|< R i.e the open interval ]-R,R[ is called interval of convergence . A power series Σ aₙ xⁿ absolutely converges for values of x inside the circle of convergence and diverges outside the circle . For values of x on the circumference of the circle , the series may converge , diverge or oscillate . For Example : ∞ The series Σ aₙ xⁿ converges for |x|< 1 n=0 and diverges for |x| < 1 and diverges for |x|≥1 . ...
