I have dealt with radius of convergence for simple series, but this one is literally complex:
11−z−z2=∑∞n=0cnzn
How does one calculate the radius of convergence here? I can't just use the ratio test? Any ideas?
What methods would I use in general? I haven't much experience with complex analysis
Answer
As Micheal pointed, the radius of convergence is just the distance from the origin of the closest singularity, so ρ=√5−12. You can achieve that also by noticing that:
cn=Fn+1=1√5[(1+√52)n+1−(1−√52)n+1]
since (1) holds for n∈{0,1} and (1−x−x2)⋅11−x−x2=1 implies:
∀n≥0,cn+2=cn+1+cn.
