How to check the convergence of series?

$displaystyle sum_{n=1}^infty ({ a^{1/n} - frac{b^{1/n}+c^{1/n}}{2}}), if (a>0,b>0,c>0)$




Edit 1



Sorry, replaced i with n. Obviously, term test is inconclusive
due to limit is equal to zero. Actually, i tried ratio test several
times but didn't succeed and got 1 as a result every time. Also tried
to represent a,b,c as exponents and expand them in Taylor series but
it didn't work too.

Hint: $x^{1/n}=1+frac{ln(x)}{n} + O(n^{-2})$.

    Can you provide a bit more information on how did you expand exponential function into series? As far as i know exp.func can't be expanded in such form due to the fact that each term in Maclaurin series will have $x^{1/0}$

    I'm sorry for slowness but still didn't catch it. Using ratio test, ignoring the remainder term get 1 again: $lim_{x to inf}frac{2+2left(frac{ln(a)}{n+1}right)-1-left(frac{ln(b)}{n+1}right)-1-left(frac{ln(c)}{n+1}right)}{2+2left(frac{ln(a)}{n}right)-1-left(frac{ln(b)}{n}right)-1-left(frac{ln(c)}{n}right)}= frac{2ln(a)-ln(b)-ln(c)}{2ln(a)-ln(b)-ln(c)}*frac{n}{n+1}=1$

$begingroup$

Thank's a lot @Mindlack for help. For all who didn't understand above-stated hint here is the solution:
$sum_{n=1}^infty ({ a^{1/n} - frac{b^{1/n}+c^{1/n}}{2}})=sum_{n=1}^infty(e^{frac{ln(a)}{n}}-frac{e^{frac{ln(b)}{n}}+e^{frac{ln(c)}{n}}}{2})$

Expanding exponential function as Mclaurin series and using the logarithm properties:
$sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{(2+2left(frac{ln(a)}{n}right)-(1+left(frac{ln(b)}{n}right)+1+left(frac{ln(c)}{n}right))+O(n^{-2}))}{2}=sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{ln(frac{a^2}{bc})}{2n}+O(n^{-2})$

The second term of sum converges everywhere while the first term is harmonic series which diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.

Answer: diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.

    Thank's a lot @Mindlack for help. For all who didn't understand above-stated hint here is the solution:
    $sum_{n=1}^infty ({ a^{1/n} - frac{b^{1/n}+c^{1/n}}{2}})=sum_{n=1}^infty(e^{frac{ln(a)}{n}}-frac{e^{frac{ln(b)}{n}}+e^{frac{ln(c)}{n}}}{2})$

    Expanding exponential function as Mclaurin series and using the logarithm properties:
    $sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{(2+2left(frac{ln(a)}{n}right)-(1+left(frac{ln(b)}{n}right)+1+left(frac{ln(c)}{n}right))+O(n^{-2}))}{2}=sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{ln(frac{a^2}{bc})}{2n}+O(n^{-2})$

    The second term of sum converges everywhere while the first term is harmonic series which diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.

    Answer: diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.

      Thank's a lot @Mindlack for help. For all who didn't understand above-stated hint here is the solution:
      $sum_{n=1}^infty ({ a^{1/n} - frac{b^{1/n}+c^{1/n}}{2}})=sum_{n=1}^infty(e^{frac{ln(a)}{n}}-frac{e^{frac{ln(b)}{n}}+e^{frac{ln(c)}{n}}}{2})$

      Expanding exponential function as Mclaurin series and using the logarithm properties:
      $sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{(2+2left(frac{ln(a)}{n}right)-(1+left(frac{ln(b)}{n}right)+1+left(frac{ln(c)}{n}right))+O(n^{-2}))}{2}=sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{ln(frac{a^2}{bc})}{2n}+O(n^{-2})$

      The second term of sum converges everywhere while the first term is harmonic series which diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.

      Answer: diverges everywhere except $a=sqrt{bc}$.
