In Complex Analysis, zeroes are points where the function vanishes while singularities are points where the function loses its analytic property (differentiability). Here we study zeros and singularities along with their types, examples, residues and related theorems. Zero of a Function Definition: Let f(z): D → ℂ be a function. A point z=a is called … Read more
The sequences (-1)n and (-1)n/n are special type of sequences. In this page, we will study the convergence of the sequences (-1)^n and (-1)^n/n. Convergence of (-1)n Question: Discuss the convergence of the sequence {(-1)n}. Answer: The sequence {(-1)n} can be written as follows: {(-1)n} = {-1, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, …}. Therefore, the … Read more

The general form of linear differential equation of first order is of the form: dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x) where P(x) and Q(x) are functions of x. Using integrating factor method, we solve this equation. In this article, let us learn how to solve a first order linear differential equation with examples. Integrating Factor of … Read more
A series of the form a0+a1x+a2x2+… = ∑ anxn is called a power series. The radius of convergence of a power series is a very powerful tool in many areas of Mathematics. In this article, we will study the convergence of a power series. Definition of Power Series A series of the form a0+a1(x-a)+a2(x-a)2+… = … Read more
A series ∑an is called absolutely convergent if ∑|an| converges. A series ∑an is called conditionally convergent if it converges but not absolutely. In this article, we study absolute and conditional convergence with their definitions and examples. Absolutely Convergent Series Definition: A series $\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$ is called absolutely convergent if the series $\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty … Read more
An alternating series is a series containing terms alternatively positive and negative. One can check its convergence using Leibnitz’s test. In this article, we will study alternating series, Leibnitz’s test with solved problems. Definition of Alternating Series A series of the form $\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty$ (-1)n+1an, where an>0 for all n, is called an alternating series. … Read more
