sequences and series - Study the convergence of $sum_nleft|frac{sin(alpha_n-alpha_m)}{alpha_n-alpha_m}right|$.



In many applications available on Math :



When does $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\sin n}{n^p}$ absolutely converge?



Does $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\sin(n)}{n}$ converge conditionally?



How to prove that $ \sum_{n \in \mathbb{N} } | \frac{\sin( n)}{n} | $ diverges?




(for example) is studied the convergence of the series
$$\sum_n\left|\frac{\sin n}{n}\right|$$
In this question let us consider a real sequence $\alpha_n$. About this sequence there are no hypotheses, except that
$$|\alpha_n-\alpha_{n-1}|\geq \gamma>0$$
Study the convergence of
$$\sum_n\left|\frac{\sin(\alpha_n-\alpha_m)}{\alpha_n-\alpha_m}\right|$$



I´m not able to verify it. Any suggestions please?


Answer




Suppose
$a_n = \pi n/2$.
Then
$|a_n-a_m|
=\pi|n-m|/2
$
and
$|\sin(a_n-a_m)|
=|\sin(\pi(n-m)/2)|
=1

$
whenever $n-m$ is odd
and zero otherwise.



Therefore
$S(m)
=\sum_{n \ne m}
\big| \frac{\sin(a_n-a_m)}{a_n-a_m} \big|
$
diverges for all $m$

by comparison with the
harmonic series.
