show that they have the same formal power series coefficients

$ underline{text{This is about formal power series:}}$



If two power series (in one or two variables) converge on a disc and agree on infinitely many values within that disc, then show that they have the same formal power series coefficients.



Answer:



Let $f(x)=sum_{n geq 0} a_n x^n$ and $g(x)=sum_{n geq 0} b_n x^n$ be two power series converges on the disc $D(r^{-})={x in mathbb{C}: |x|<r }$.



Their corresponding formal power series are respectively $ F(x)=sum_{n geq 0} a_n X^n$ and $G(x)=sum_{n geq 0} b_n X^n $, say.



Given that the power series agree on $D(r^{-})$, so we have



$sum_{n geq 0} a_n x^n=sum_{n geq 0} b_n x^n$ for infinitely many $x in D(r^{-})$,



Does this imply $ sum_{n geq 0} a_n X^n=sum_{n geq 0} a_n X^n$?



If so then, let



$h(X)=sum_{n geq 0} a_n X^n-sum_{n geq 0} b_n X^n=0$,



$Rightarrow h(X)=0$



$Rightarrow sum_{n geq 0} (a_n-b_n) X^n=0$,



$Rightarrow a_n=b_n, forall n$



I think some mistake happened .

Not true. Let $f(z)=sin (frac 1 {z-1})$. This function has a power series expansion $sum a_n z^{n}$ in ${z:|z| <1}$. The sum of its series is $0 (equiv sum b_nz^{n}$ where $b_n=0$ for all $n$) at the points $z=1- frac 1 {npi}, n=1,2,cdots$. But its coefficients are not all $0$.

    Does it really have the formal power series you think it does? The series $(z-1)^{-1}-frac1{3!}(z-1)^{-3}+frac1{5!}(z-1)^5-cdots$ doesn't converge in the formal power series sense - there are infinitely many terms with nonzero constant term.
