Convergence at implies that the terms form a bounded sequence: for some . If and , then
Comparison with the convergent geometric series proves absolute convergence. The case is vacuous.
The radius of convergence is the number such that a power series converges absolutely for and diverges for , with boundary behavior considered separately.
Take
Then is the convergent alternating harmonic series, whereas is the divergent harmonic series. Thus converges at a point of modulus one and diverges at another point of modulus one. It follows that
Because is a monotone sequence, every one of its first terms is at most , so
On the other hand, every term from through is at least , and hence
Both the lower bound and upper bound tend to because the Cesàro means converge to . The squeeze theorem gives
Componentwise,
so
Repeated application gives . Transposing the matrix exponential term by term therefore yields
Multiplication of the two power series gives
Hence
If is an orthogonal matrix for every real , then
Its coefficient of must vanish, so
that is, is a skew-symmetric matrix.
Let be the supremum of all lower Darboux sums and the infimum of all upper Darboux sums. The assumed comparison of arbitrary lower and upper sums gives . For the partition supplied for a given ,
Since this holds for every positive , . Thus the Riemann integrability criterion gives
If is continuous on , the Heine-Cantor theorem makes it uniformly continuous. Given , choose so that intervals of length below have oscillation below . A partition of mesh below then satisfies
proving that Continuous functions are Riemann integrable.
For the function defined using , choose with . Given , choose so small that . On , the function is continuous and therefore has a partition whose upper-minus-lower sum is below . Adding the interval contributes at most , regardless of the value . Hence the full Darboux-sum difference is below , and
Finally, for any partition , the mean value theorem supplies such that
Summing telescopes to
a Riemann sum for the Riemann-integrable function . Equivalently, every lower derivative sum is at most this telescoping value and every upper derivative sum is at least it. Taking the common upper and lower Darboux integrals proves the fundamental theorem of calculus conclusion
