Unconditional Convergence - Alternative Definition

Alternative Definition

Unconditional convergence is often defined in an equivalent way: A series is unconditionally convergent if for every sequence, with, the series

converges.

Every absolutely convergent series is unconditionally convergent, but the converse implication does not hold in general. When X = Rn, then, by the Riemann series theorem, the series is unconditionally convergent if and only if it is absolutely convergent.

Famous quotes containing the words alternative and/or definition:

    If you have abandoned one faith, do not abandon all faith. There is always an alternative to the faith we lose. Or is it the same faith under another mask?
    Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    According to our social pyramid, all men who feel displaced racially, culturally, and/or because of economic hardships will turn on those whom they feel they can order and humiliate, usually women, children, and animals—just as they have been ordered and humiliated by those privileged few who are in power. However, this definition does not explain why there are privileged men who behave this way toward women.
    Ana Castillo (b. 1953)
