Continuity in the complex plane

194 Views Asked by At

I was reading a book where it is claimed that a sufficient condition for \begin{equation} f(x)=\frac{1}{2\pi}\left|\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}\theta_je^{ix j}\right|^2 \end{equation} to be continuous and is strictly positive (over $(-\pi,\pi)$) is \begin{equation} 0<\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}|\theta_j|<\infty. \end{equation} Could anyone please explain this? Also, can we find a necessary condition as well?
