Key Concepts

Ratio Test

The Ratio Test is a method used to determine the convergence of an infinite series by examining the limit of the absolute value of the ratio of consecutive terms. If this limit is less than one, the series converges absolutely; if it is greater than one, the series diverges; and if it equals one, the test is inconclusive, necessitating further investigation.

Interval of Convergence

The interval of convergence is the complete set of x-values for which the power series converges. While it is centered on the series' center and extends R units in both directions, the behavior at the endpoints must be checked individually, as convergence there is not guaranteed by the radius alone.

Power Series

A power series is an expression of the form ? a? (x - c)?, where 'c' is the center of the series and a? represents the coefficient of each term. This form is valuable for representing functions as infinite sums and allows for analysis of convergence within its radius.

Radius of Convergence

The radius of convergence is a non-negative number that defines the distance from the center of a power series within which the series converges absolutely. It is determined using convergence tests such as the Ratio Test or the Root Test, indicating that for all values of x satisfying |x - c| < R the series converges.
