Abstract
This part contains Chapter 3 (of 5), which is mainly concerned with the derivation, analysis and applications of a summation formula, due to Lindelöf, for alternating series and complex power series, including ill-conditioned power series. An appendix is devoted to complete monotonicity and related questions.
The reader is referred to Part I (in this volume of BIT) for the abstract, the contents and the bibliography of the whole work. A short list of references for this part is at the end of this part.
