Prove that the limit exists or does not exist:
limN→∞N∑n=11ϕ(n),
where ϕ(n) is the Euler Totient function.
The ratio test was inconclusive.
I'm fairly sure the p-series test says this series diverges because p=1 but then again in this case I'm not sure how to deal with a function in the place where n normally is.
Answer
Since φ(n)≤n it follows that 1φ(n)≥1n and hence ∑1φ(n)=∞.
