let put S(x)= Σ_(n=1) ^∞   ξ(n) x^n   if x=0  S(x)=0 let suppose   x≠0   we have∣ (( ξ(n+1)x^(n+1) )/(ξ(n)x^n ))∣= ((ξ(n+1))/(ξ(n))) ∣x∣ let studie  lim_(n→+∞^ )    ((ξ(n+1))/(ξ(n))) we have  ξ(n+1)= Σ_(p=1) ^∝   (1/p^(n+1) )  and   ξ(n)= Σ_(p=1) ^∝  (1/p^n )  (1/p^(n+1) )=  (1/(p.p^n ))<   (1/p^n )  for p>1  ⇒0< ξ(n+1)<ξ(n)  ⇒ 0< ((ξ(n+1))/(ξ(n)))<1 if l=lim_(n→+∝)  ((ξ(n+1))/(ξ(n)))  we must have  0<l<1    and  lim_(n→+∝)   ((ξ(n+1))/(ξ(n)))/x/=l/x/  if  /x/<  (1/l)  the serie cnverges and if /x/> (1/l) the serie  diverges.
