Examine for which u \in \mathbb R the series \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac {(1+(-1)^n)^n}{n^2} |u|^{\sqrt{n}(\sqrt{n+1})}
converges.
What I found out so far: (1+(-1)^n) alternates between [0;2], that means that the whole series becomes zero for the even n. The interesting part are the odd n...
Hi Zondrina and all the other helpers/readers. I used the Cauchy-Condensationtest:
For convergence:
s_n = \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty a_1+a_2+a_3+...+a_n
with the estimate
s_N=a_2+a_2+a_4+a_4+a_4+a_4+a_8+...+N*a_N
=2a_2+4a_4+...+N*a_N
=2(a_2+2a_4+...+ (\frac N2)*a_N)...
Thanks micromass and zondrina for your quick help
I´m sorry for the misconception. I meant series, sorry about that. Well our teacher told us/me that the quotient and/or root-test aren´t helpful here because the first one shows convergence and the second one divergence. He then talked about...
Homework Statement
Show that the following sequence \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^\alpha}
for all real \alpha > 1 converges and for all real \alpha \leq 1
diverges.
The Attempt at a Solution
All I know is that the Abel-Summation is the only useful thing here, but I got no clue...
Yeah, that´s correct Sammy. Do you see any flaws?
I´m pretty new to proofs in Mathematics and still struggle with it and still feel a little bit insecure when I got to prove something.
Thank you Sammy for your warm welcome
Oh yeah, you are right. Both signs should point in the same direction. I mistakenly wrote it in the wrong way.Sorry about that.
So it should be:
\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty } \sqrt[n]{K}\ \Rightarrow \ 1 \leq \sqrt[n]{K} \leq 1 + ...
Thx ;)
I thought about this and maybe this one here is more elegant than the other one, would be cool if someone could backcheck it.
\forall n \text{ with } n > K >1: \sqrt[n]{K} <\sqrt[n]{n}
and \lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{1}= 1
\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{K} \leq \lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{n} =...
Many thanks Fightfish for your quick reply so i can state the following:
For the 3 real Sequences \sqrt[n]{1} , \sqrt[n]{K} , \sqrt[n]{n} \exists N \forall n \geq N is \sqrt[n]{1} \leq \sqrt[n]{K} \leq \sqrt[n]{n}
and \lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{1} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{n}...
Homework Statement
Be K \geq 1. Conclude out of the statement that \lim_{n \to \infty } \sqrt[n]{n} = 1, dass \sqrt[n]{K} = 1
The Attempt at a Solution
\lim_{n \to \infty } \sqrt[n]{K} \Rightarrow 1 \leq \sqrt[n]{K} \geq 1 + ...
I got issues with the right inequality...
