Power Series in a Banach Space

109 Views Asked by At

I'm looking at differentiability, analyticity and power series functions between Banach spaces, I'm using Soo Bong Chae's book "Holomorphy and Calculus in Normed Spaces".

The book has the definition:

A power series from $E$ to $F$ about $\xi\in E$ is a formal series of the form $$\sum_{m=0}^{\infty}{A_m (x-\xi)^m}$$ where $A_m \in \mathcal{B}^m(E;F)$.

Here we have the idea of a Taylor series, we have the $m$ derivatives. On page 168, it is said who $A_m$ is, $$A_m = \frac{1}{m!}d^mf(\xi)$$ where $d^mf$ is the $m$-linear map, $d^mf: U\to \mathcal{B}^n(E,F)$.

So here is my doubt, the power series should be from $E$ to $F$? I'm probably misinterpreting something... should I consider $d^mf$ applied m times to $\xi$? But I didn't get that from the book.

In that case, I would also like to know if anyone has any book references or material that addresses complex analysis in Banach spaces.

Notation: $\mathcal{B}^n(E,F)$ is the space of all continuous multilinear mappings of $E\times\cdots E$ ($n$-times) into $F$.
