Possible Behavior of Set — ay" There isa positive numnber & such that the series diverges for jx — af > R but converges absolutely for [x — al < R. The series may or may not converge al either of the endpoints x =a — Rand x =a R. 2. The series converges absolutely for every x (R= oo. ‘The series converges at x =a and diverges elsewhere (R Im case 1, the set of points at which the series converges i finite interval, called the interval of convergence, We know from the examples thatthe interval can be open, half-open, oF closed, depending on the particular series, But no matter hich kind of interval iis, R is called the radins of convergence of the series, and a + Ris the least upper bound of the set of points at which the series converges, “The convergence is absolute at every poiat in the interior of the interval.
