  • 1 Notes for Expansions/Series and Differential Equations in the Last
    Notes for Expansions/Series and Differential Equations In the last discussion, we considered perturbation methods for constructing solutions/roots of algebraic equations. Three types of problems were illustrated starting from the simplest: regular (straightforward) expansions, non-uniform expansions requiring modification to the process through inner and outer expansions, and singular perturbations. Before proceeding further, we first more clearly define the various types of expansions of functions of variables. 1. Convergent and Divergent Expansions/Series Consider a series, which is the sum of the terms of a sequence of numbers. Given a sequence {a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,....,an..} , the nth partial sum Sn is the sum of the first n terms of the sequence, that is, n Sn = ak . (1) k =1 A series is convergent if the sequence of its partial sums {S1,S2,S3,....,Sn..} converges. In a more formal language, a series converges if there exists a limit such that for any arbitrarily small positive number ε>0, there is a large integer N such that for all n ≥ N , ^ Sn − ≤ ε . (2) A sequence that is not convergent is said to be divergent. Examples of convergent and divergent series: • The reciprocals of powers of 2 produce a convergent series: 1 1 1 1 1 1 + + + + + + ......... = 2 . (3) 1 2 4 8 16 32 • The reciprocals of positive integers produce a divergent series: 1 1 1 1 1 1 + + + + + + ......... (4) 1 2 3 4 5 6 • Alternating the signs of the reciprocals of positive integers produces a convergent series: 1 1 1 1 1 1 − + − + − + ......... = ln 2 .

    Real Analysis Honors Exam 1 Do the best that you can to respond to the following problems. It is not required that you respond to every problem, and, in fact, it is much better to provide complete and clearly explained responses to a subset of the given problems than to provide hurried and incomplete responses to all of them. When a complete response is not possible you are encouraged to clearly explain the partial progress that you can achieve. x2 y2 z2 4 1. Prove that the ellipsoid a2 + b2 + c2 = 1 has volume 3 πabc. You may assume that this formula is correct for the spherical case where a = b = c. 2. Newton's Method: Suppose that f : R ! R is continuously differen- tiable. Newton's method is an iterative algorithm designed to approx- imate the zeros of f. Start with a first guess x0, then for each integer n > 0 find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of f at the point (xn−1; f(xn−1))), and solve for the x intercept of that line which is named xn. Show that the sequence (xn) is guaranteed to converge under the following conditions: (a) f has a zero in the interval (a; b). (b) f is twice continuous differentiable with f 0(x) > 0 and f 00(x) > 0 on (a; b). 2 3. A function f : R !

  • Also Called Cauchy's Condensation Test
    TMA226 17/18 A NOTE ON THE CONDENSATION TEST The condensation test (also called Cauchy's condensation test) is one of several tests that can be used to determine if a series converges or not. It is closely related to integral test, but in many cases the condensation test requires less work than the integral test. This short note presents a self-contained proof of the condensation test. We also look at the connection to the integral test, and some examples. Preliminaries Let us recall a few important definitions before we start. In particular, we define positive, decreasing and converging series. P P1 Definition 1. Let an = n=1 an be infinite series. P • We say that an is positive if an ≥ 0 for all n. P • We say that an is decreasing if an+1 ≤ an for all n. P P Definition 2. Let an be a positive series. We say that an converges if the partial sums sn = a1 + a2 + ··· + an; n = 1; 2;::: are uniformly bounded. That is, if there is some real number M ≥ 0 so that sn ≤ M 8n: (1) P If an does not converge, then we say that it diverges. P1 P Theorem 1. Let n=1 an be a positive series. Then an converges if and only if there exists a positive real number s such that m X s = lim an: (2) m!1 n=1 P Proof. Assume an converges. Then there is some real number M such that a1 + a2 + ··· + an ≤ M | {z } = sn for all n. Then, because of the least upper bound property of the real numbers, there exists some s 2 R such that s = supfs1; s2; s3;:::g: We will now show that s is the limit of the partial sums.

  • Week 2: Calculus II Notes
    Christian Parkinson GRE Prep: Calculus II Notes 1 Week 2: Calculus II Notes We concluded the Calculus I notes with Riemann integration, Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and some helpful integration techniques. However, ofter times, you will be asked to identify whether an integral converges or diverges even when you cannot find the value. This is especially true for improper integrals: those in which the integrand had a singularity or the range goes to infinity. We begin the Calculus II notes by discussing some basic convergence results. Proposition 1 (p-test). Let p 2 R. The integral Z 1 dx p 1 x converges if p > 1 and diverges otherwise. The integral Z 1 dx p 0 x converges if p < 1 and diverges otherwise. Note that as a consequence, the integral Z 1 dx p 0 x never converges. These can all be verified by a straight-forward calculation and hint at some good intuition. The borderline case is 1=x where neither integrals converge, so as a general rule, for Z 1 f(x)dx 1 to converge, we will need f(x) ! 0 faster than 1=x as x ! 1 and if g(x) has a singularity at x = 0, then for Z 1 g(x)dx 0 to converge, we need g(x) to blow up slower than 1=x as x ! 0+. Note, these \general rules" should not be seen has hard-and-fast truths, but rather heuristics which can often make it easy to verify if an integral converges or diverges. The following two theorems give more rigorous forms of these general rules.

Barrett ISVR, University of Southampton First version 2005 Last update July 2016 1 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS This list of references originated from a notebook in which were jotted down interesting original references. Subsequently it seemed a useful project to extend and complete the list as far as time permitted, the task being an unending one. Having reached a certain stage of completeness it is made available hoping it is found useful for those interested in mathematical origins. Generally speaking, the topics mentioned are those met in a degree course in mathematics. For each entry the list attempts to give an exact source reference with comments about priority. There are now available other historical reference sources for mathematics on the internet though with a different style of presentation*.
