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.

The radius-one series with coefficients $1/(n+1)^2$ , $1/(n+1)$ and $1$ realise absolute, conditional and divergent endpoint behaviour

Statement

Each of

$\sum_{n\ge0}\frac{x^n}{\iota(n+1)^2},\qquad \sum_{n\ge0}\frac{x^n}{\iota(n+1)},\qquad \sum_{n\ge0}x^n$

has radius $1$ . At $x=\pm1$ the first converges absolutely; the second converges conditionally at $-1$ and diverges at $1$ ; the third diverges at both endpoints.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The three displayed real power series.

[L1]

The relevant coefficient roots tend to $1$ , because $\iota(n)^{1/n}\to1$ and limits respect products and reciprocals ( $n^{1/n} \to 1$ , The canonical natural $\iota(n) = n \cdot 1_F$ of a field, Algebra of limits: sums, scalar multiples, products and quotients).

[L2]

Cauchy–Hadamard converts that limit into radius $1$ (Cauchy–Hadamard: the reciprocal radius is $\limsup_{k\to\infty}|a_{k+1}|^{1/(k+1)}$ , with the zero and infinite cases included).

[L3]

The $p$ -series converges for rational $p>1$ and diverges for $p\le1$ , while the alternating harmonic series converges (For rational $p > 0$ , $\sum 1/k^p$ converges iff $p > 1$ , The alternating series test: if $(b_k)$ is nonincreasing with $b_k \to 0$ then $\sum_{k} (-1)^{k} b_k$ converges, the sum lies between any two consecutive partial sums, and the error after $n$ terms is at most $b_n$ ).

Verification

technique · cases

1.1

By [L1], all three Cauchy–Hadamard limit superiors equal $1$ , so [L2] gives radius $1$ in each case.

L1L2

1.2

For the squared-denominator series, absolute values at either endpoint form the $p$ -series with $p=2$ , which converges by [L3].

assume-case squaredL3

1.3

For the first-power denominator, $x=1$ gives the divergent harmonic series, while $x=-1$ gives a convergent alternating series whose absolute series is harmonic.

1.4

For the constant coefficients, at either endpoint the terms have absolute value $1$ and do not tend to zero, so both endpoint series diverge.

The coefficient families in steps 1.2--1.4 exhaust the displayed series and give the asserted absolute, conditional, and divergent endpoint behaviours.
