 Solution

If $z_0=0$, there is no $z$ with $|z|<|z_0|$, so the claim is vacuous. Suppose $z_0\ne 0$. Convergence of $\sum a_n{z}_0^n$ implies $a_n{z}_0^n\to 0$, because terms of a convergent series tend to zero. In particular this is a bounded sequence, so $|a_n{z}_0^n|\le C$ for some finite $C$ and every $n$.

For $|z|<|z_0|$, put $q=|z|/|z_0|<1$. ThenThe geometric series and comparison test for series proveThus convergence at one point gives absolute convergence at every point strictly closer to the centre.
