 Lacunary power series

A power series is lacunary when only a sparse sequence of powers has nonzero coefficients. For ${\sum }_j{c}_j{z}^{m_j}$ with strictly increasing integer exponents, the radius of convergence satisfies $R^{-1}={\mathrm{limsup}}_j|c_j{|}^{1/m_j}$ by the Cauchy-Hadamard theorem. The exponent $m_j$, rather than the term index $j$, controls the coefficient root.
