Is finding the CDF from the Laplace transform well-posed?
In my study of Dynamic Light Scattering, I came across the following inverse problem. Let $F(s):[0,T]\rightarrow[0,T]$ be the Laplace transform of a probability distribution $f(t)$ on the real line ...

Does $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n e^{\sin{n}}}{\sqrt{n}}$ converge?
I am trying to study the converge of the series
$$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n e^{\sin{n}}}{\sqrt{n}}$$
But $e^{\sin{n}}$ is not monotone, and the Abel's test rule fails here. Can someone help me? ...

Let $(b_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ be a real sequence such that $(nb_n)$ is bounded. I know that if the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty b_n$ is conditionally convergent, then $(n^2b_n)_n$ is not bounded. But, ...
