The radius of convergence of the power series
Given number:
(1)nn\frac{\left(-1\right)^{n}}{\sqrt{n}}
It is a series of species
an(cxx0)dna_{n} \left(c x - x_{0}\right)^{d n}
- power series.
The radius of convergence of a power series can be calculated by the formula:
Rd=x0+limnanan+1cR^{d} = \frac{x_{0} + \lim_{n \to \infty} \left|{\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n + 1}}}\right|}{c}
In this case
an=1na_{n} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}
and
x0=1x_{0} = 1
,
d=1d = 1
,
c=0c = 0
then
R=~(1+limn(n+1n))R = \tilde{\infty} \left(1 + \lim_{n \to \infty}\left(\frac{\sqrt{n + 1}}{\sqrt{n}}\right)\right)
Let's take the limit
we find
