Abstract

Discrete sums of exponentials g(w)=aβeβwg(w) = \sum a_{\beta} \mathrm{e}^{\beta w} with positive exponents may converge not normally in neighborhoods HH of -\infty which do not contain half-planes. We study different notions of convergence for these series and in particular the intuitive notion of summation by packages. Indeed, joining in packages the terms in the sum g(w)g(w) whose exponents are close together, and summing first inside each package may result in massive cancellations. We show that discrete sums g(w)g(w) which are bounded in what we call logarithmic neighborhoods can always be summated by packages.
