Partial sums of a family with at most one nonzero term #
If a family u in a seminormed group has at most one nonzero term, then every finite partial sum
is either the whole sum or zero, so it differs from ∑' i, u i by at most ‖∑' i, u i‖ₑ
(Set.Subsingleton.enorm_sum_sub_tsum_le). Such a uniform bound on the partial sums is what
dominated convergence needs to pass from pointwise to Lᵖ convergence of a sum of functions with
pairwise disjoint supports.
For families f and y in seminormed groups with ∑ i, ‖f i‖ * ‖y i‖ summable, the extended sum
∑' i, ‖f i‖ₑ * ‖y i‖ₑ is the extended real ENNReal.ofReal (∑' i, ‖f i‖ * ‖y i‖)
(TauCeti.tsum_enorm_mul_enorm_eq_ofReal).
If a family has at most one nonzero term, each finite partial sum differs from the sum by at most the extended norm of the sum.
If ∑ i, ‖f i‖ * ‖y i‖ is summable, the extended sum ∑' i, ‖f i‖ₑ * ‖y i‖ₑ is its real sum
viewed as an extended real.
