Aug 8, 2016 at 7:15 | comment | added | Deepti | @Anton: Maybe, this is a bit shorter version of your proof. Set $S_0:=0,$ in addition to $S_N, N\geq 1$ defined previously. Correspondingly, $T_0= -ab_0.$ Then $\sum_{j=0}^Ma^jT_j=-a^{M+1}S_{M+1}.$ As $M\to \infty,$ then the left-hand side tends to $F(a)=0$ (this was asked by Alexandre Eremenko), whence $\{a^jS_j\}\to 0$ and we obtain $F_N=S_N.$ And then your reasoning on the Cauchy sequence. Thank you so much for your interest in the question and nice solution, Deepti. | |

Aug 4, 2016 at 7:41 | comment | added | Alexandre Eremenko | @Anton: Where does your proof use that $F(a)=0$ ? It is clear that the statement does not hold without this assumption. | |

Aug 4, 2016 at 6:29 | comment | added | Deepti | I think there is a small misprint: it should be $S_N-a^{M+1}S_{N+M+1} $ in the formula for the sum $\sum_{j=0}^M a^jT_{N+j}.$ | |
