Hi, Here's yet another problem: Let fn(x)=(sin(nx))/n2.  a) Show that the series sigma fn(x) for all x but the series of derivatives sigma f'n(x) diverges when x=2n(pi), where n is an integer. b) For what values of x does the series sigma f''n(x) (the second derivatives) converge? As you can tell, this is differentiation and integration of a power series.  I only got as far as proving that fn(x), but the rest is very confusing. Thanks!

Question

Hi,

Here's yet another problem:

Let fn(x)=(sin(nx))/n2

a) Show that the series sigma fn(x) for all x but the series of derivatives sigma f'n(x) diverges when x=2n(pi), where n is an integer.

b) For what values of x does the series sigma f''n(x) (the second derivatives) converge?

As you can tell, this is differentiation and integration of a power series.  I only got as far as proving that fn(x), but the rest is very confusing.

Thanks!
