Exercise 2.8.2

Show that if the iterated series

∑ i = 1 ∞ ∑ j = 1 ∞ | a ij |

converges (meaning that for each fixed i ∈ N the series ∑ ⁡ j = 1 ∞ | a ij | converges to some real number b i , and the series ∑ ⁡ i = 1 ∞ b i converges as well), then the iterated series

∑ i = 1 ∞ ∑ j = 1 ∞ a ij

converges.

Answers

Since ∑ ⁡ j = 1 ∞ | a ij | converges, c i = ∑ ⁡ j = 1 ∞ a ij converges as well; moreover | c i | ≤ | b i | , so ∑ ⁡ i = 1 ∞ c i converges by comparison with ∑ ⁡ i = 1 ∞ | b i | .
