Proving Convergence of Series in a Given Norm

[Somefantastik]

Given a sequence, how does one prove that the associated series in convergent or not, in a given norm? For example,

\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}a_{k} in ||\cdot||

The process to do this is not in my book; I'm told how to determine whether a series is cauchy, but I'm not sure how to use that to show it's convergent.

depending on the series there will be a different method for proof of convergence or divergence. is there a specific series you are speaking of?

 

[Somefantastik]

I have several, in several spaces.

f_{n}(t) \ in \ (C[0,1],||\cdot||_{\infty})

is an example of one.

got nothing for you man. sorry.

 

[dacruick]

I don't even understand your notation. good luck though

bump, can someone please give this another look? I'd like to work these problems, but my book is not helpful and my campus is closed this week :(
