Series representation for a specific range












0












$begingroup$


I am wondering if there is a valid series representation using:



$f(z) = sum_{k=-infty}^{infty} a_k(z-z_0)^k$



for $r<|z−z_0|<R$



Why is this not possible?

    A function of this form is called analytic. In particular you can see that such function has to be continuous. So any non-continuous function can't take that form.

    Would this function satisfy the requirements? I think it does since it is from negative infinity to positive infinity

    I might misinterpret the question. I understand it as follows "why it isn't possible to express every function as $f(z)=sum_{k=-infty}^{infty} a_k(z-z_0)^k$". If this is what you meant then the answer is that the sum is always continuous.

    Does that mean that as long as the function is continuous we can represent it using that sum?
