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.

    “No alternative to the
    one-man path.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “... if, as women, we accept a philosophy of history that asserts that women are by definition assimilated into the male universal, that we can understand our past through a male lens—if we are unaware that women even have a history—we live our lives similarly unanchored, drifting in response to a veering wind of myth and bias.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
