by C lim k→ C k and lim k→ d k 0. In order to show the existence of lim n→ b n ∑ kn<br />

a k ,<br />

it suffices to show the existence of lim n→ ∑ <br />

kn<br />

C k d k − d k1 . Since the series<br />

C k d k − d k1 exists, lim n→ ∑ <br />

C k d k − d k1 0. From above results, we have<br />

proved the convergence of lim n→ b n ∑ kn<br />

Note: We also show that lim n→ b n ∑ <br />

Supplement on the convergence of series.<br />

A Show the divergence of ∑ 1/k. We will give some methods listed below. If the<br />

proof is easy, we will omit the details.<br />

(1) Use Cauchy Criterion for series. Since it is easy, we omit the proof.<br />

(2) Just consider<br />

1 1 2 1 3 1 4 ... 2 1 n ≥ 1 1 2 2 1 4 1 ...2n−1 2 n<br />

1 n 2 → .<br />

Remark: We can consider<br />

1 1 ... 1 1 ... 2 10<br />

1 ...≥ 1 11 100<br />

10 9 100 90 ...<br />

Note: <strong>The</strong> proof comes from Jing Yu.<br />

(3) Use Mathematical Induction to show that<br />

<strong>The</strong>n<br />

1 1 2 1 3 1 4 1 5 1 6 ....≥ 1 3 3 3 6 3 9 ...<br />

Remark: <strong>The</strong> proof comes from Bernoulli.<br />

(4) Use Integral Test. Since the proof is easy, we omit it.<br />

(5) Use Cauchy condensation <strong>The</strong>orem. Since the proof is easy, we omit it.<br />

(6) Euler Summation Formula, the reader can give it a try. We omit the proof.<br />

(7) <strong>The</strong> reader can see the book, Princilpes of Mathematical Analysis by Walter<br />

Rudin, Exercise 11-(b) pp 79.<br />

Suppose a n 0, S n a 1 ...a n ,and∑ a n diverges.<br />

(a) Prove that ∑ an<br />

1a n<br />

diverges.<br />

Proof: Ifa n → 0asn → , then by Limit Comparison <strong>The</strong>orem, we know that<br />

diverges. If a n does not tend to zero. Claim that does not tend to zero.<br />
