INTRODUCTION

This book offers the modular technology of studying higher mathematics course by the students of engineering specialties in the third term.

Each module represents logically compiled sections of the subject. The material of the third term is divided into two modules:

1.Series.

2.Multiple integrals. Line and surface integrals. Field theory. These modules contain several micromodules.

Every module begins with the general statements, which represent the

themes of the sections, basic concepts, and main tasks. Each micromodule covers:

1)basic theoretical information,

2)examples of problem solutions,

3)class and home assignments,

4)self-test assignments.

The theoretical part presents all necessary material for mastering the theme in question (lecture summary). References to the literature are applied to all the themes which enable students to learn theoretical material.

The practical part contains examples of problem solutions illustrating the theoretical material and problems with answers for class and home work.

Each micromodule is provided with self-test assignments containing a great number of problems to be done by the students in a written form.

1.1. Definitions. Sum of a Series

Consider a number sequence a1, a2 , a3 , ..., an , ... .

Definition. An expression of the form

 

a1 + a2 + a3 + ...+ an + ... = an

(1.1)

n=1

 

is called a number series or simply a series. The numbers a1, a2 , ..., an are

called the terms (or members) of the series, and the number an is called the n-th

or general term of the series.

Definition. The sum of the finite number n of the terms of the series is called the nth partial sum of the series:

 

 

 

n

 

 

 

 

Sn = a1 + a2 + a3 + ... + an = ai .

 

 

(1.2)

 

 

 

i=1

 

 

 

Consider the sequence {Sn } of partial sums of the series (1)

 

 

 

S1 = a1 ,

 

 

 

 

 

S2

= a1 + a2 ,

 

 

 

 

.............

 

 

 

 

 

Sn

= a1 + a2 + a3 + ... + an ,... .

 

 

 

Definition. If the sequence

{Sn }

has a finite limit,

lim Sn = S,

i. e.,

{Sn }

 

 

 

 

 

 

converges to S, then the limit is called the sum of the series an

and the se-

 

 

 

n=1

 

 

 

 

= S. If there is no

lim Sn , i.e., {Sn }

 

ries is said to be convergent: an

does

 

 

n=1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

not converge, then the series

an

is said to be divergent and does not have

any sum.

 

n=1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Example. Examine convergence of the series

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1.3)

 

1+1+1+...+1+... = 1n

 

 

 

 

 

n=1

 

 

 

We consider the nth partial sum of the series

 

 

 

 

Sn =1+1+1+...+1= n.

 

 

 

Then lim Sn = lim n = ∞.

 

 

 

 

 

n→∞

n→∞

 

 

 

 

 

The given series diverges.

n=1

 

 

 

 

We consider the sequence of partial sums {Sn}

of the series (1.4)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

S1 = 1,

S2 = 0,

S3 = 1, S4 = 0, ..., S2n1 = 1, S2n = 0

does not exist.

1.2. Operations on Series

Operations on number series may be deduced from the following theorems:

Theorem 1 If the series a1 + a2 + ... + an + ... = an converges, then so does

n=1

the series obtained from it by discarding any finite number of terms in the beginning. Conversely, if a series obtained from the given series by discarding a finite number of terms in the beginning converges, then the given series converges.

Proof. In the partial sum

Sn = a1 + a2 + ... + an ,

of the series we denote by σk the sum of the first k(k < n) discarded terms. We get

Sn = a1 + a2 + ... + ak + ak +1 + ... + an = σk + Snk .

It follows that if there exists lim Sn , then there is lim Snk (k = const) and,

n→∞

n→∞

conversely, if there is lim Snk , then there exists lim Sn .

n→∞

n→∞

Remark. The resultant series a

ak +1 + ak + 2 + ... has the sum S = S − σk , S

being the sum of the original series.

 

Theorem 2 Let the series a1 + a2 + ... + an + ... = an be convergent and

n=1

λ ≠ 0 be a number. Then the series λa1 + λa2 + ... + λan + ... = λan converges and

n=1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

λan = λ an .

 

(1.6)

 

 

 

n=1

n=1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Proof. We write partial sums for the series an and

λan :

 

 

 

 

n=1

n=1

 

Sn

= a1 + a2 + ... + an and

σn = λa1 + λa2 + ... + λan .

It is obvious that σn

= λSn .

 

 

 

 

As stated, the series

 

 

 

Sn , then from the

an converges, i. e., there exists lim

last equality there is

 

n=1

 

 

n→∞

 

lim σn , so that

 

 

 

 

n→∞

Proof. Let Sn

= a1 + a2 + ... + an ,

 

 

 

 

 

 

σn = b1 + b2 + ...+ bn

 

 

and

Cn = (a1 + b1 ) + (a2 + b2 ) + ... + (an + bn ),

 

 

 

 

 

 

be partial sums of the series an ,

bn and

(an + bn ),

respectively.

Clearly, σn + Sn = Cn .

As by the statement of the theorem the series an and bn , converge, i.e.,

there exist lim Sn

and lim σn , it follows from the last equality, which holds for

all n, that there exists lim Cn , and

(Sn + σn ) = lim Sn + lim σn ,

 

 

lim Cn

which is equivalent to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(an

In the same manner, we can prove the convergence of (an bn ) .

Let introduce the concept of the remainder of a series. If we discard the first

will obtain the convergent series

an+1 + an+ 2 + ... ... + an+ k + ... = an+ k which is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

k =1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rn

called the n-th remainder of the series and denoted by

= an+ k for a fixed n.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

k =1

The original series can then be written as an = Sn + Rn .

Theorem 4 If S is the sum of the series, then the remainder will be

Rn = S Sn for any n = 1, 2, ...

and lim Rn = 0.

1.3. Tests for Convergence of Series

Cauchy’s criterion for convergence of a sequence allows formulating the general criterion for convergence of a number series.

Theorem 5 (Cauchy’s criterion). A necessary and sufficient condition for a

number series an to converge is that for any number ε > 0 there exists a

n=1

number N = N (ε) such that for any n > N there holds

an + an+1 +...+ an+ p

< ε

(1.7)

for all p = 0, 1, 2, ... .

In terms of the partial sums Sn+ p and Sn1 of an , we can write (1.4) as

n=1

Sn+ p Sn1 < ε.

From the Cauchy’s criterion follows the necessary test for convergence of a number series.

Theorem 6 (The necessary condition for convergence of a series). If series

an converges, then its general term tends to zero, i.e.

n=1

lim an = 0.

n→∞

Proof. Let series an

n=1

n1

where Sn1 = ak , but an

k =1

So that lim an = 0.

n→∞

converges. Then exists lim Sn = S

and lim Sn1 = S,

n→∞

n→∞

= Sn Sn1.

 

Corollary. If lim an

is not equal to zero or does not exist, then an di-

n→∞

n=1

verges.

 

Proof. Suppose that

an converges. Then by Theorem 6, there must be

 

n=1

lim an that is equal to zero. Our assumption has led us to a contradiction, hence

n→∞

it is wrong. Therefore, the series is divergent.

Remark. Theorem 6 gives a necessary condition for a series to converge,

which is not, however, sufficient, i.e., the condition lim an = 0 may be satisfied

n→∞

for a divergent series an as well.
