Examples of Use of Abel's Limit Theorem
Arbitrary Example 1
Let $\ds \map g x = \sum_{n \mathop \ge 1} \paren {-1}^{n - 1} \dfrac {x^n} n$ for $\size x < 1$.
Then:
- $\map g x = \map \ln {1 + x}$
for $\size x < 1$.

so by Abel's Limit Theorem:
- $\map g 1 = \ds \lim _{x \mathop \to 1^{-} } \map g x = \lim_{x \mathop \to 1^{-} } \map \ln {1 + x} = \ln 2$
since the logarithm is a continuous function.

Let:
- $\ds \map g x = \sum_{n \mathop \ge 0} \frac {\paren {-1}^{n - 1} \paren {2 } !} {2^{2 n} n!^2 \paren {2 n - 1} } x^n$
for $\size x < 1$.
Then:
- $\map g x = \sqrt {1 + x}$
for $\size x < 1$.

so by Abel's Limit Theorem and the continuity of $\sqrt {1 + x}$:
- $\map g 1 = \ds \lim_{x \mathop \to 1^{-} } \map g x = \lim_{x mathop \to 1^{-} } \sqrt {1 + x} = \sqrt 2$
