The integral test is based on the comparison of the partial sums of a series of the
form 2r=i f(l<) and certain areas under the graph of the function/. Geometrically,
the basic idea is quite simple and is illustrated in Figure 1. In Figure la. the area

Comparison Tests
The most convergence or divergence of infinite series are based on
practical tests for
the idea of comparing a given series with a series that is known to converge or
diverge. Geometric series and p series are especially useful in such comparison
tests.
Let 2y(i=i «* and 2^^=i h^ be two series whose terms are nonnegative. We say
that the series 2!/t- 1 ''«. dominates the series ^t= i «* if "* ^ b^ holds for all
More generally, if there is a positive integer N such that a^ s h^ holds for all
integers k > N. we say that the series 2*=i ^* eventually dominates the series
Let X*=i "* '^"'^ 2*=i ''< ^^ series all of whose terms are nonnegative, and
suppose that ^T-i ^<. dominates 2]*=i "* *'^'' 'h^' 2*=! ^it eventually domi-
We prove the theorem under the hypothesis that 2*=i ^k dominates X*=i ^*-
end," conclusions (i) and (,ii) must still hold if 2r=i fc* eventually dominates
(i) Assume that 2Jk=\ ^a converges to the sum B. Then for any positive
integer n. 2l'=i b^ < 2^=1 = B (see Problem 28 of Problem Set 11.3).
^/i
(ii) Assume that 2jk=\ "* '^ divergent. Then the partial sums X*=i ^k ^^'
come large without bound as n^* +^ (see Problem 71). Since
Zj"k=\ Ok £ 2^=1 bk- it follows that the partial sums X*=i bk become large
without bound as n -^ +=c: hence, the series 2*=i bk cannot be convergent.
The choice of a suitable series with which to compare a given series is not always
obvious and inay require some trial and error; however, a geometric series or a
constant multiple of a p series whose form is similar to the given series often works.
For example, to test the series
i— 5* + 1
5*
for comparison, because it closely resembles the given series. If the general term Uk
of a given series is a fraction, then an appropriate p series to use for comparison is
often obtained by deleting all but the highest powers of k in the numerator and
denominator of «*. For instance.

In case 1 , we call the number R the radius of convergence of the power series. In
case 2. it is convenient to say that the radius of convergence of the power series is
infinite and to write R = +^. Naturally, in case 3. we say that the power series has
an open interval. In general, anything can happen — the series may diverge,
5 Theorem 1 says nothing, one way or the other, about whether the power
series converges at the endpoints of its interval of convergence. This has to be
checked by substituting .v = a - /? and .v = a + /? in the

using the standard tests for convergence of a series.

represents the function /on the interval /. For instance, by Theorem 1 in Section
11.2, the geometric series 1 + .v + .v" + .v^ + • • • converges for |.r| < 1, and its
sum is 1/(1 - .X): that is, the function /(.r) = 1/(1 - .x) is represented by the power
series 1 + .v + .v" + .x^ + on the interval (-1, • • •
1). By starting with a known
power series representation such as
1 -.V
= 1 + .V + .V- + v' + • • • = 2 -V* for - 1 < v < 1
and using Property I or II to differentiate or integrate the power series term by term,
it is often possible to obtain interesting new power series representations. In this
connection, substitution into a known power series representation is also useful.
The following examples illustrate the techniques involved.
In Examples 2 to 7, starting with the power series representation given above for
1/(1— each of the indicated power series representations by using
.v), verify differ-
