Suppose that I have an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n z^n$ which converges on some disk around the origin.
For a particular function I encountered, I wished to prove that every coefficient, $a_n$, is non-negative.
I am wondering what complex analytic methods exist to detect negative coefficients if all my coefficients are real. What nice ways are there to check if all of the coefficients of my power series are the same sign?
In more generality, are there methods which detect whether eventually all of the coefficients are of the same sign? (That is, whether or not there exists $N$ such that for all $n,m>N$, $a_n$ and $a_m$ will be the same sign)
I am really interested in any, and many, thoughts on this problem. What strategies could possibly work?
Thanks!
