    O f c o u r s e as remarked above, an absolutely convergent series is conver

    gent. In th e case o f absolu te convergence we ca n p o se a comparison test,just as fo r series o f number s .

    Theorem 5.1. (Comparison Test) L et {fk} be a sequence of continuous

    functions defined on a set X. Suppose there is a sequence {pk} of positivenumber s and an integer N > 0 such that

    Then /fc converges absolutely.

    Proof. T h e verification is th e same as tha t fo r n u m b e r series (Theorem 2.3).

    2. zk does not converge uniformly in {\z\ 1} In fact, th e

    5.2 T he Fundamental T heorem o f Algebra

    F o r th e r emainder o f this chapter we restrict attention exclusively to

    complex-valued funct ions o f a complex variable. T he simplest class o f suchfunct ions ar e th e polynomial functions ; t h a t is, funct ions o f th e form

    P(z) = az a^iz 1 axz a0 ,

    (where th e at are complex numbers). W e shall always assume a 0; inthis case n is called th e degree o f P . I t is a basic fact o f mathemat i cs tha t

    e v e r y polynomial h as a root ; tha t is, there is a n u m b e r c e C such tha t P(c) =

    0. T he proof o f this fact consists in a systematic investigation o f th e analyticproperties o f polynomials. First, we recall de M oivre s theorem.

    L e m m a . Every nonzero complex number has n distinct nth r o o t s .

    Proof. L et c e C, c ^ 0. F o r this p u r p o s e , th e polar representation c re ism o s t convenient . A n n th root o f c is a n u m b e r w pe * s u c h t h a t p r an dem* ei8. tnat jSj n^

    c. T h e n u m b e r s pe^ioi, pe cu,, , pe *co are t hen al ldistinct, an d ar e all n th roots o f c.

    Now, we need tw o deeper facts depending on th e continuity properties o f

    polynomials. T h e first is intuitively clear: t h a t \P(z)\ gets arbitrarily large asz - c o . T he second is th e cru cial fa ct fo r th e fundamenta l theorem: th e

    place w here a polynomial h as a minimum modulus m u s t be a root.

    L e m m a . L e t P(z)=

    anz ax z a0 be a polynomial of degree n>0.(i) lim \P(z)\ = oo, that is, given any M > 0 there is a K>0 such that

    |z|->CO

    |P(z)| > M whenever \z\ > K.

    (ii) If P(z0) 0, then z0 c a n n o t be a m i n i m u m point fo r \P\; that is, therear e z close to z0 such that \P(z)\ < |P(z0)|.

    5.2 The Fundamenta l Theorem of Algebra 40 9

    (since ai ^ 0). N o w we consider th e case o f general degree n , assuming th e corollaryfo r polynomials o f degree n 1. By th e theorem, the re is a point c such t h a t

    P(c) = 0. T h e n

    P(z) = P(z) P(c) = 2 *(z c* = 2 *(* o zW-1 J

    n-l/ n \

    T he factor on th e right is a polynomial o f degree n 1, so th e induct ion assumption

    applies: it can be wri t ten as a(z Zi) (z z_i) fo r suitable a ^ O , zu z i

    Thus, writing c=

    , we obtain

    P( z ) = a ( z - z i ) - - - ( z - z ) (5-4)

    This factorization is clearly unique, except fo r th e order o f th e z; s: a is th e

    leading coefficient o f P and {zu . . . , z} are th e roots o f P . O f c o u r s e ,

    Zjl, . . . , z need n o t be distinct; le t ru . . . , rs b e th e se t o f distinct r o o t s .I f

    we le t m,. be th e n u mb e r o f occurrences o f th e root r{in th e list {zu . . . z j,

    m t is called th e multiplicity o f th e r o o t r{ . W e ca n rewrite (5.4)as

    P(z) = a(z rt mi (z rs m (5.5)

    an d clearly m t + + m s = n , th e degree o f P .

    Before concluding th is se ctio n we should remark on th e factorization o f

    real polynomials. Rea l polynomials need not have real roots (viz.,z2 +

    = 0), b u t their complex roots come in conjugate pairs. L et P(z)= az -\

    + ax z + a0 be a real polynomial. If P(r)= 0, then

    P(f) = ani? n +---+a1r + a0=(anr +--- + a1 z + a0)~= PirY 0

    so r is also a root o f P . Since

    (z r)(z -r = z2 - ( r + r)z + rr

    z2-2 Re(r)z + \r\2

    th e polynomial has real coefficients. Thus,if we rea r ran g e th e r o o t s o f P

    intoth e real roo t s

    ru...,rk and th e conjugate pairs rk + l, r k + u . . . , r , , r , we

    ca n rewrite th e factorization 5.5 into a product o f l inear and quadratic

    real polynomials.

    P(z) = a(z rj 1 (z

    I f now we are given a l inear differential equation w hich is not homogeneous,or has variable coefficients, we have a problem o f a m u c h d if fe re n t magnitude.In general, such problems cannot be solved explicitly. Thus, we m u st seek

    5.8 Infinitely Fla t Functions

    N o t al l functions are susceptible to th e kind o f Taylor series analysiswhich we have been doing. A first requirement is t h a t th e function h av e

    derivatives o f all order; even tha t h o wev e r is insufficient. Another glance a t

    Theorem 5.6 will remind th e r eader tha t there is a behavior requirement on

    these successive derivatives in order tha t th e given function be th e sum o f it s

    Taylor expansion. W e shall show by example tha t there are infinitelydifferentiable functions which are not sums o f p o w e r series. First, we shall

    make th e notion o f analyticity precise.

    Definition 4 . L e t /b e a complex- valued function defined in an o p e n se t U.

    L et a e U. /is analytic a t a if there is a bal l {z: \z

    such t h a t / is th e sum o fa

    convergent p o w e rseries in th is b all. is

    analyticin U if / is analytic a t every point o f U.

    W e have deliberately stated this definition without reference to th e domain

    o f definition o f th e function; it applies equally well to functions o f a real or

    complex variable. T he only functions which we k n o w to be analyticare

    th e polynomials and ez. F o r example, i f / is th e sum o f a convergent p o w e r

    series a t th e origin, we d o n o t yet k n o w t h a t we can expand in a series o f

    powers o f (z

    a) with a an y o ther point in th e disk o f convergence. W e

    shall see in th e n e x t chapter t h a t this is th e case. W e have already seen t h a tan analytic function h as derivatives o f al l orders (is C and

    now we will

    produce a function which is not analytic. T h e clue tothis function is

    given by th e following fact, which follows from l Hospital srule.
