- Lo g ( 1 - zo ) = ~ L., --z^1 0 n+l = ~ L., - z^1 0 n.
n=O n+l n = l n
The point Zo E Di (0) was arbitrary, so we are done.

on the set T = D1 (0) by appealing to Statement (7-3). Hint: Given e > 0 and a
positive integer n, let Zn = e ~.
- Why can't we use the arguments of T heorem 7. 2 to prove that the geometric series
converges uniformly on all of D 1 (O)? - By starting with the series for t he complex cosine given in Section 5.4, choose an
appropriate contour and use the method in Example 7 .2 to obtain the series for
the complex sine. - Suppose that the sequences of functions {f.,} and {g,.} converge uniformly on the
set T.
(a) Show t hat the sequence {f., + g.,} converges uniformly on the set T.
(b) Show by example that it is not necessarily the case that {!,. g,,} con-
verges unjformly on the set T. - On what por tion of D1 (0) does the sequence {nz"}::°=t converge, and on what
portion does it converge uniformly?
