The radius of convergence of a power series is the number such that the series has absolute convergence for and diverges for . Equivalently,
Use , including at . The supremum may be . There is no general conclusion at : boundary convergence depends on the coefficients. If , only the centre is guaranteed; if , every finite lies inside the disk of convergence.
