Uniform Convergence of $sum_{n=1}^{infty}frac{x}{[(n-1)x+1][nx+1]}$












-1












$begingroup$


What can be said about the uniform Convergence of $sum_{n=1}^{infty}frac{x}{[(n-1)x+1][nx+1]}$ in the interval $[0,1]$?



The sequence inside the summation bracket doesn't seem to yield to root or ratio tests. The pointwise convergence itself seems doubtful. Should we use Cauchy-Criterion directly here? Maybe some comparison would be useful in this case? And what about uniform convergence? Any hints? Thanks beforehand.

The series can be computed by using telescoping. We have $frac{x}{[(n-1)x+1][nx+1]}=frac1{(n-1)x+1}-frac1{nx+1}$. Thus, the sequence of partial sums would be $s_n=frac{nx}{nx+1}$. Hence, sum is equal to $$begin{cases}0 text{when} x=0\1 text{when} xneq0end{cases}$$. This easily shows non-uniform convergence, as the limit is discontinuous at $0$.

    The series can be computed by using telescoping. We have $frac{x}{[(n-1)x+1][nx+1]}=frac1{(n-1)x+1}-frac1{nx+1}$. Thus, the sequence of partial sums would be $s_n=frac{nx}{nx+1}$. Hence, sum is equal to $$begin{cases}0 text{when} x=0\1 text{when} xneq0end{cases}$$. This easily shows non-uniform convergence, as the limit is discontinuous at $0$.
