Positive sum-product convergence criterion

ID: positive-sum-product-convergence-criterion

For , the finite product satisfies
The lower inequality follows by product expansion; the upper one uses . Since both the partial sums and partial products are increasing, one converges to a finite limit exactly when the other does. The monotone bounded sequence theorem proves both implications. The product cannot tend to zero in this nonnegative setting.
