Professor Dave I just came across your video and I want to express my appreciation at the very clear presentation of the concepts; not only are the slides very clear, you speak with a certain clarity which is rare to come by in a mathematics tutorial. Thank you .
This is the limit of the sequence, not the series. It means that for a very big _n,_ the sequence will be approximately {...1/5, 1/5, 1/5...}, and adding infinitely many 1/5 will result in infinity.
Thanks professor Daves. This video really helped me in understanding the basics of convergent and divergent series. And , I would also like to place a demand for a video on Maclaurain's series.
Omg, thank you so much. This video really helped bridge the gap between all this information and how it works together. Before, it was like a jumbled mess in my head.
Hi prof dave, your channel helped me a lot in my study. I humbly for a request a video explaining the fourier series. I will wait for it. Thank you so much.
1:16 This seems like a divergent series but actually is convergent. There are some simple and complex proofs to show that 1+2+3+.....= -1/12. This is same as Riemann zeta function for -1.
Then series diverge when they sum constants and ever increasing values and converge when they sum ever decreasing values? really simple and good explanation!
When the limit of a sequence is zero then the corresponding series will be convergent and when the limit of a sequence gives some constant value L then the sequence is convergent. Is this right? Please correct me.
Would someone mind explaining why it is that every power series is a Taylor series? (I know every Taylor series is a power series but I’m wondering why the reverse is true - and without invoking heavy analysis stuff)!
I don't get it because at the beginning he said that if it gets to a finite number it is convergent and in the end when he gets1/5 he said it is divergent ;-; please somebody help me
In the beginning, he was talking about sequence. At the end, he was talking about series (It seems like they have different criteria for divergence/convergence)
Only using analytic continuation on a different function (continued riemman zeta function) that is closely related to but not interchangeable with that sum. The function that gives you that sum (riemman zeta function) only works for inputs with a real part greatrr than one. The RZ function breaks when you get smaller than one. But if you "continue" the riemman zeta function throughout the complex plane (ensuring it is analytically continued), when you plug in (-1), which using the non-continued riemman zeta function (∑«n=1→∞» (1/n^s) for varying values of s) would blow up to infinity, you get (-1/12). So there is a sense in which the sum you get from the non continued RZ function, 1+2+3+4... also equals (-1/12).
he just said in the video clearly that if a sequence converges to 0 as it approaches its infinite-th term, the series that the sequence generates would have a finite number limite. i think u're mixing up sequence and series, which is the first thing he stated in the video
i have a tutorial earlier in my mathematics playlist on sequences and series, that's probably the one you're looking for. just go to the long playlist, it's somewhere in the 80s i think.
The sum of all *n* natural numbers is a diverging series coz it doesn't approach any sensible value , try substituting as n→∞ in the formula n(n+1)/2 , -1/12 isn't the true sum coz this result can't be verified using the convergence and divergence test!
@@wolframalpha8634 the result can't be found as addition doesn't happen assuming a linear number line (well I know line is linear , dunno how else to put it in words) . And also he did put n as infinite and write sum as infinite so.... Btw thx
Your voice is so clear and stress-relievingly good to hear.

I had a problem all during my semester in this concept.. but now it's so clear !
I can't thank u more man :)
@@jonathanlimjun6238 what do you know about convergence
PROFESSOR you explained it so beautifully.
Thanks.
at 8:50 why that sum will be divergent ? i thought it will converge to 1/5?
same here
This is the limit of the sequence, not the series. It means that for a very big _n,_ the sequence will be approximately {...1/5, 1/5, 1/5...}, and adding infinitely many 1/5 will result in infinity.
the sequence converges to 1/5 so the sum isn't finite
EDIT: wait that comment is old
Just the type of explanation I was looking for. Perfectly explained.
Thanks professor Daves.
This video really helped me in understanding the basics of convergent and divergent series.

how could i explain my love to this wonderful man
thank you very much sir....this concept is clear to me now
Then series diverge when they sum constants and ever increasing values and converge when they sum ever decreasing values? really simple and good explanation!
This professor is good. I like this video
Like your animations
How can math be amazing like this 😍
you're a goat for this video bro, respect g
Great video! your explanation is very easy to understand

Excellent explanation
Very clear explanation, thanks!
Thanks for the video. This has made me understand a lot of things I have been missing. Good work!
Crystal clear! Thank you!
Wow ....its all coming back to me!!
It was a good revision! Great job 👏
Thanks for the knowledge you have shared with me.
thanks, man!! really clear and useful, and also insightful; ❤️❤️
Great explanation !
When the limit of a sequence is zero then the corresponding series will be convergent and when the limit of a sequence gives some constant value L then the sequence is convergent. Is this right? Please correct me.
thanks sir
i like everything in the way how you explain!
Thank you so much!!!
Perfectly explainedd🔥
Thanks loved it.
Thank you 😊👍 so much from India.
Hey Dave. Would you consider following up this course with a linear algebra course? All the best, Bram
don't worry, linear algebra is coming! i already filmed some of it.

Very very helpful!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!
7:05 how to get that answer?
2:54 the sequences should start from 1
great man
Hey can a convergent sequence have an answer which is a complex number...as n approaches infinity
hmm yes i believe so, at least definitely if there are complex numbers in the sequence!
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Pirates if they give up Piracy and go to the Caribbean University 6:05
so if the resulting series is zero it is convergent?
Yes
Hi prof Dave .do you have videos about Taylor and Mclaurin series.Thank you.
Yep!
Is it possible for a sequence with two different numbers to converge?
Thank you Lord Farquad you are the best!
Sir , limit of1/n is zero still series is divergent this theorem goes wrong in this case is it exception ??????? Pls reply sir

It is a special case for a special type of function. You will get zero no. If you write this in your exam
Only using analytic continuation on a different function (continued riemman zeta function) that is closely related to but not interchangeable with that sum. The function that gives you that sum (riemman zeta function) only works for inputs with a real part greatrr than one. The RZ function breaks when you get smaller than one. But if you "continue" the riemman zeta function throughout the complex plane (ensuring it is analytically continued), when you plug in (-1), which using the non-continued riemman zeta function (∑«n=1→∞» (1/n^s) for varying values of s) would blow up to infinity, you get (-1/12). So there is a sense in which the sum you get from the non continued RZ function, 1+2+3+4... also equals (-1/12).
convergent = limit does not exist
which playlist is this video in?????

nice
First equation = -1/12 ;)
🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
Ty for making me understand bro
I confused how lim of 1/2^n = 1 . I thought it should be 0. becz 1/inf = 0.
he just said in the video clearly that if a sequence converges to 0 as it approaches its infinite-th term, the series that the sequence generates would have a finite number limite. i think u're mixing up sequence and series, which is the first thing he stated in the video
