Infinite sums and products in topological groups #
Lemmas on topological sums in groups (as opposed to monoids).
Let f : β → α
be a summable function and let b ∈ β
be an index.
Lemma tsum_eq_add_tsum_ite
writes Σ' n, f n
as f b
plus the sum of the
remaining terms.
Let f : β → α
be a multipliable function and let b ∈ β
be an index.
Lemma tprod_eq_mul_tprod_ite
writes ∏ n, f n
as f b
times the product of the
remaining terms.
The Cauchy criterion for infinite sums, also known as the Cauchy convergence test
The Cauchy criterion for infinite products, also known as the Cauchy convergence test
The sum over the complement of a finset tends to 0
when the finset grows to cover
the whole space. This does not need a summability assumption, as otherwise all such sums are zero.
The product over the complement of a finset tends to 1
when the finset grows to cover the
whole space. This does not need a multipliability assumption, as otherwise all such products are
one.
Series divergence test: if f
is unconditionally summable, then f x
tends to zero

Product divergence test: if f
is unconditionally multipliable, then f x
tends to one along
cofinite
