Integral test: \ \
\The function is a continuous, positive, decreasing function on
and let
. \ \
(i) If is convergent, then
is convergent. \ \
(ii) If is divergent, then
is divergent.
\ \
The series is .
The correspondimg integral in the terms of is
.
If .
The integral is divergent if .
If .
.
If .
If .
Hence the integral is converges for .
Threfore, the series is converges for
The series is converges if
.
