Abstract
Consider a random power series of the form where are deterministic and are chosen independently and uniformly at random from . Kolmogorov's three-series theorem states that if then almost-surely diverges at almost every with . Dvoretzky and Erd\H{o}s proved in 1959 that if then in fact almost surely diverges at every . Erd\H{o}s then asked in 1961 if this is sharp, meaning that if then there is almost surely some convergent point with . We prove this in a strong sense and show that if then in fact the set of convergent points of with has Hausdorff dimension .
