Weierstrass M-Test

This is a supplementary video to the Real Analysis series. It connects the topic of series with the uniform convergence of sequence of functions.

Weierstrass M-Test

The Weierstrass M-test, sometimes also called the Weierstrass majorant criterion, is named after the German mathematician Karl Weierstraß and after the constants in the theorem that are often denoted by $M$.

We will apply this theorem in the Complex Analysis series and also in a technical part of the Fourier Transform series, where we will show the convergence of so-called Fourier series.
