The Cauchy product of two series
and
defined as
with
converges to
where
and
if and only if at least one of
is absolutely convergent.
Proof: Define![]()
For each![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Define
Since
converges to
it is enough to show that
converges to zero. Choose
then let
and
There is
such that
implies that
and for
thus for![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Also, if
converges to![]()
converges to![]()
converges to
then![]()
