Some relations connecting measures of convergence for series with non- increasing terms. (English) Zbl 0601.40002

Some results due to J. B. Wilker [Can. Math. Bull. 21, 237-240 (1978; Zbl 0401.57024)] associated with the rate of convergence of series \(\sum^{\infty}_{n=1}a_ n\) are improved. The existence of convergent series \(\sum^{\infty}_{n=1}a_ n\) for which \(a_ n\downarrow 0\), \(\liminf \log a_ n/\log (n^{-1})=1,\quad \limsup \log a_ n/\log (n^{-1})=\infty\) and \[ \lim (\log (\sum_{j>n}a_ j)/\log (n^{- 1}))=\lim (\log (\sum_{j>n}a_ j)/\log a_{n+1})=0 \] is proved.
