How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Complex series, absolute convergence, complex power series, and radius of convergence

Definition

A complex sequence is a function a ⁣:N→C. Since the additive reduct (C,+,0) of the complex field is a commutative monoid, the finite-list construction of The product g0g1⋯gn−1 of a finite list in a monoid, by recursion, with the empty product (n=0) equal to the identity, read additively, defines its complex partial sums by S0=0,SN+1=SN+aN,SN=∑n<NCan. The superscript is omitted when the summands already make the codomain clear.

The complex series ∑an converges to s∈C when SN→s in the metric of The Euclidean metric, convergence, Cauchy sequences, and continuity on the complex plane; then s is its sum. This is the same finite sum and convergence as the vector-series definition on R2 in Series of vectors in Rn, absolute convergence, rearrangement, and the set of rearrangement sums. The series converges absolutely when the real series ∑∣an∣ of Series, partial sums, convergence and the sum, divergence, and the tail series converges. For a bijection σ ⁣:N→N, its rearrangement along σ is the complex series ∑aσ(n).

Let (cn) be a complex sequence and a∈C. The complex power series centered at a with coefficients (cn) is ∑n=0∞cn(z−a)n, with powers from Integer powers in the complex field and the preceding complex partial sums. To define its radius without ambiguity, form the specific real power series Q(x):=∑n=0∞∣cn∣xn centered at 0. The radius of convergence of the complex power series is, by definition, the radius of this Q in A real power series about a centre, its interval of convergence, and its radius in [0,+∞]. Thus the coefficient sequence, real variable, and center of the comparison series are all explicit.

51 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
