Symbolically, if : Natral Nmbers real mbers, the is a seqece. t is deoted as { }, where is the -th term of the seqece or simly,,... Ths,,, 4... is a ifiite seqece.. Mootoic seqece. f i the seqece { }, (i) for all or, (ii) for all, the the seqece is said to be mootoic icreasig (for i) or mootoic decreasig (for ii) seqece. Ths, if, { } is mootoic icreasig seqece ad if, { } is mootoic decreasig seqece.. Boded seqece. f corresodig to the seqece { } there eists a fiite mber M sch that M for all the seqece is said to be boded above ad if M for all, the seqece is said to be boded below. f a seqece is boded both above ad below it is said to be boded. Ths, RST UVW is boded above ad the er bod is ad RST U V W is boded below ad the lower bod is 0. V. Coverget seqece. A seqece { } is called coverget ad is said to have a limit l, if R S U V Lt l. Ths, is coverget ad the limit is. T W V. Diverget seqece. The seqece { } is called diverget if C-4\N-MATH\jc-.m5

3 4 Tetbook of Egieerig Mathematics Lt or. Ths { } is diverget. V. Oscillatory seqece. f a seqece either coverges or diverges to or, the the seqece is said to be oscillatory. Moreover, if it is boded, it is said to be oscillate fiitely or if it is boded it is said to be oscillate ifiitely. Ths, {,,,,,,...} oscillates fiitely ad {( ). } oscillates ifiitely. Now we state the ecessary ad sfficiet coditios that a seqece { } may be coverget as follows : (i) Either, the seqece is mootoic ad boded i.e., mootoic icreasig ad boded above or mootoic decreasig ad boded below. (ii) Or else, the seqece satisfies Cachy s coditio amely, Give ad re-assiged small ositive qatity, we ca determie a ositive iteger N, sch that <, wheever N, beig ay ositive iteger. R Eamle.

Also becase each of,..., is less tha /, it follows that <. for all. { } is boded above. Hece, { } is mootoic icreasig ad boded above ad is, therefore, coverget. V. fiite series. f { } be a give real valed seqece, the a eressio of the form is called a ifiite series. symbols it is geerally writte as or. C-4\N-MATH\JNC-.m5

Let s associate to the ifiite series a seqece {s } defied by s... The seqece {s } is called the seqece of artial sms of the give series. X. Covergece of a ifiite series. A ifiite series Σ is said to coverge, diverge or oscillate accordig as its seqece of artial sms {s } coverges, diverges or oscillates. case {s } coverges to s, tha s is called the sm of the series Σ ad we shall write s Σ. Mathematically, Σ coverges if Lt fiite Σ diverges if Lt s s or Σ oscillates if {s } oscillates (fiitely/ifiitely). i.e., {s } does ot have a iqe limit. X. Series of ositive terms. A ifiite series i which all the terms are ositive after some terms is called ositive term series e.g.,... is a ositive term series.. GENERAL PROPERTES O SERES P : Covergece of a series remais chaged by the relacemet, iclsio or omissio of a fiite mber of terms. P : A series remais coverget, diverget or oscillatory whe each term of it is mltilied by a fied mber other tha zero. P : A series of ositive terms either coverges or diverges to i.e., omittig the egative terms, the sm of first terms teds to either a fiite limit or. P4 : Every fiite series is a coverget series.
