How do you show that the exponential is not uniformly convergent on the entire complex plane? [duplicate]

I want to show that the series $\sum_{z=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{n!}$ is not uniformly convergent on the entire complex plane. I understand that we just need to show that the supremum norm of the ...

Bound power series where each term is divided by $n!$

Suppose the radius of convergence, $R$, of the power series $\sum_0^\infty c_nz^n$ has a positive radius of convergence. How can I show that $$\left| \sum_{1}^\infty \frac{c_nz^n}{n!} \right| \le C \...

Find the limit $\lim_{z\to2k\pi i}\frac{z}{e^z-1}$ where $k\in\Bbb{Z}$

If $k=0$, then ${e^z-1\over z}=\sum_{n\ge0}{z^n\over (n+1)!}$. So. $\lim_{z\to0}\frac{z}{e^z-1}=1$. Now if $k\ne0$, then $\lim_{z\to2k\pi i}{e^z-1\over z}=\sum_{n\ge0}{(2k\pi i)^n\over (n+1)!}$, now ...

Justification for the power series representation of exponential function

In the book of Complex Analysis by Conway, on page $32$, it is given that Consider the series $\displaystyle \sum _{n=0}^{\infty }\:\frac{z^n}{n!}$ ;we have that this series has radius of convergence ...

Radius of convergence of $\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z^n}{e^{an}+1}, a \in \mathbb{C}$

$$\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z^n}{e^{an}+1}, a \in \mathbb{C}$$ I have some doubts on the result because of that complex parametre. I think that the radius is $R=0$, since the negative real axis of the ...

Computing the Taylor expansion of the square root of cos(z),

Let $\large f(z)=\sqrt{cosz}$ with the branch of the square root chosen so that $f(0)=1$. Consider the power series expansion of $f(z)$ in powers of $z$. Part 1) Compute the first three non-zero ...

Analytic Function with Exponential Coefficients

I've been struggling with a weird complex analysis statement for a few days without making really any headway; I'd really appreciate a hint to get me past where I'm at. The theorem goes like this: ...

For every $z\in \Bbb C$, the exponetial series converges uniformly on every bounded subset of the complex plane

$$\operatorname{exp}(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z^n}{n!}$$ This series converges uniformly on every bounded subset of the complex plane. What does this mean in simple terms?

Exponential of a complex number converges absolutely

$$\operatorname{exp}(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z^n}{n!}$$ This converges absolutely for every $z\in \Bbb C$. What does this mean to a layman?

Find a closed form from the given power series

I have the power series $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} {z^{2n}\over{n!}}$, how do I find the closed form for this power series. I am aware that $e^z=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} {z^{n}\over{n!}}$, so I tried to ...

Finding power series

I need to find the power series for $e^z + e^{az} + e^{a²z}$ where $a$ is the complex number $e^{2πi/3}$. I know that $1 + a + a² = 0$. I have tried to differentiate the expression and give values ...

Proving that $\exp(z_1+z_2) = \exp(z_1)\exp(z_2)$ with power series [duplicate]

Probably a simple question, but I wonder about the following: To prove that $\exp(z_1+z_2) = \exp(z_1)\exp(z_2)$, I use : $$\exp(z_1+z_2) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\sum_{k=0}^n\frac{1}{k!(n-k)!}z_1^kz_2^{...
