Definition

If f (x)=n=0

cn(xa)n for all x I then the power series is called a powerseries representation for f in xa.

We also sayThe power series converges to f (x).The sum of the power series is f (x).

RemarkNot all functions have a power series representation!

RemarkAll infinitely differentiable functions have a Taylor Series about x = a.

Not all infinitely differentiable functions have a power seriesrepresentation.Thus, the Taylor Series of f about x = a is NOT ALWAYS a powerseries representation for f . That is, generally,

f (x) 6=n=0

f (n)(a)

n!(xa)n

However, if a function has a power series representation in xa, thenthat power series representation must be the same as its Taylor Series.
