1). Lemma convergent, then
is convergent, too. This is because
Now is convergent
2). a counterexample
we get
so is divergent.

Since is a sequence with non-negative terms, then the series
converges if and only if it is bounded.
Cauchy-Schwarz provides that
and as the right-hand side is bounded for , then so is the sequence of the partial sums .
Therefore, the series converges for .

If , convergence of follows from Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and the fact that is convergence for
If we take , then is convergent and
and the series is divergent.
