Prove that sequence $(a_n)_{n\geq 1}$ is not convergent.
The standard branch of logarithm, $\log:\mathbb{C}\setminus (-\infty,0]\to\mathbb{C}$ is defined as
$$
\log(z):=\ln|z|+i\operatorname{Arg}(z)\tag{2}
$$
where $\arg(z)$ is the standard branch of the ...

How to Prove Convergence of $\prod\limits_{n =1}^\infty \left(1-\frac{z^2}{n^2}\right)$ for any $z \in \mathbb{C}$?
For $\frac{\sin(\pi z)}{\pi z} =\prod\limits_{n =1}^\infty \left(1-\frac{z^2}{n^2}\right)$, prove convergence of $\prod\limits_{n =1}^\infty \left(1-\frac{z^2}{n^2}\right)$ for any $z \in \mathbb{C}$.

Absolutely vs Non-Absolutely Convergent Infinite Product
Consider the following standard infinite product:
$$
\prod_{n=1}^{+\infty} \left( 1 + \frac{(-1)^n}{2n-1}z \right)
$$
This product is not absolutely convergent because:
$$
\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty} \left|...

Associativity of infinite products
It is well-known that if $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$ is an absolutely convergent complex series and $\mathbb N$ is partitioned as $J_1,J_2,\dots$, then the series $\sum_{j\in J_n}a_j$ for all $n$ and $\...

How to Show that Taylor Series of Holmorphic Function Centred at the Origin Converges Everywhere on the Open Unit Disk
I am interested in how one can show that the Taylor series of a holomorphic function defined within the open unit disk converges everywhere within the open unit disk.
To put this more clearly, suppose ...

Convergence of series from inverse of Cauchy product
The Cauchy product of two real or complex infinite series $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{N}} a_n$ and $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{N}} b_n$ is defined as:
$$ \forall n\in\mathbb{N}, c_n = \sum_{k=0}^n a_k b_{n-k} $$

How to construct a complex function series that converges uniformly on a closed region but its derivative does not converge uniformly on the boundary?
I'm looking for an example of a series of complex functions $\{f_n(z)\}$ with the following properties:
The series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f_n(z)$ converges uniformly on a closed region $D$ in the ...

Given a convergent sequence of complex numbers, is there a sequence of nested Jordan curves whose sum of members of $z_n$ in the regions converges?
Suppose $(z_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\subset \mathbb{C}$ such that $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z_n$ converges.
Then, for example,
$$ \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\left( \sum_{\frac{1}{k+1} < \left\lvert z_n \...

Convergence of summation of complex exponentials with alternating exponent
Related to my previous question, consider $$f(s)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \exp(-s(-2)^k)$$where $s\in\mathbb{C}$ is a complex number. According to the Willie Wong's comment, $f(s)$ diverges when $\Re\{s\} \...

Convergence of a limit as in Abels theorem
Abels theorem makes a statement about the continuity of a convergent power series for $x<1$
$$f(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n x^n$$
at $x=1$, that is if $f(1)$ exists, it equals $\lim\limits_{x\...
