Bs space explained

\R

or complex numbers

\Complex

such that\sup_n \left|\sum_^n x_i\right|is finite. The set of such sequences forms a normed space with the vector space operations defined componentwise, and the norm given by\|x\|_ = \sup_n \left|\sum_^n x_i\right|.

Furthermore, with respect to metric induced by this norm, bs is complete: it is a Banach space.

The space of all sequences

\left(xi\right)

such that the series\sum_^\infty x_iis convergent (possibly conditionally) is denoted by cs. This is a closed vector subspace of bs, and so is also a Banach space with the same norm.

\ellinfty

via the mappingT(x_1, x_2, \ldots) = (x_1, x_1+x_2, x_1+x_2+x_3, \ldots).

Furthermore, the space of convergent sequences c is the image of cs under

T.
