Number N Independent of Z So That For All Z in R: To Establish The Uniform Convergence Use

The document discusses uniform convergence of series and several related theorems: - A series converges uniformly if the difference between its partial sums and the sum can be made arbitrarily small uniformly over the region, as defined by the theorem of uniform convergence. - The Weierstrass M-Test establishes a sufficient condition for uniform convergence using majorizing constants. - If a series of continuous functions converges uniformly, then its term-by-term integral and sum are continuous. - If a series of analytic functions converges uniformly, then its sum is analytic and can be differentiated term-by-term.

5.3 Uniform Convergence of Series

DEFINITION (Uniform Convergence) The series


whose nth partial sum is
Sn (z) is said to converge uniformly to S (z) in a region R if, for any > 0, there exists a
number N independent of z so that for all z in R

To establish the uniform convergence use:


THEOREM 7 (Weierstrass M Test) Let
be a convergent series whose terms M1,
M2 , . . . are all positive constants. The series
converges uniformly (and
absolutely) in a region R if
u j z M j

for all z in R

EXAMPLE 1 Use the M test to show that


z 3 4.

j 1

M j 1 ...

4 4
j 1

Now: u j z z j 1 u j z 1 z z 2 ..
1 z
j 1

Solution. Observe:

Mj

is uniformly convergent in the disc

And for z 3 4 (and for z 1 )


That proofs the statement.

u j ( z) M j

Without a proof.
THEOREM 8 Let
converge uniformly in a region R to S(z). Let f(z) be bounded
in R, that is,| f(z)| k (k is constant) throughout R. Then in R,

The series converges uniformly to f(z)S(z).


For instance: for |z|<1 :
THEOREM 9 Let
be a series converging uniformly to S(z) in R. If all the
functions u1(z), u2(z),... are continuous in R, then so is the sum S(z).

For instance: for |z|<1 :

u j z 1 z z 2 ..
j 1

1
1 z

THEOREM 10 (Term-by-Term Integration) Let


be a series that is uniformly
convergent to S(z) in R and let all the terms u1(z), u2(z),... be continuous in R. If C is a
contour in R, then

that is, when a uniformly convergent series of continuous functions is integrated term by
term the resulting series has a sum that is the integral of the sum of the original series.2

Complex Variables
For instance: for |z|<1 :

1 z z 2 ...
1 z

For a contour C inside |z|<1

and for the principal branch of the logarithm:

So inside |z|<1 :

THEOREM 11 (Analyticity of the Sum of a Series) If


converges uniformly to
S(z) for all z in R and if u1(z), u2(z),... are all analytic in R, then S(z) is analytic in R.
THEOREM 12 (Term-by-Term Differentiation) Let
converge uniformly to S(z)
in a region R. If u1(z), u2(z),... are all analytic in R, then at any interior point of this region:
