Infinite sums and products in nonarchimedean abelian groups #
Let G be a complete nonarchimedean abelian group and let f : α → G be a function. We prove that
f is unconditionally summable if and only if f a tends to zero on the cofinite filter on α.
We also prove the analogous result in the multiplicative setting.
Let G be a nonarchimedean additive abelian group, and let f : α → G be a function
that tends to zero on the filter of cofinite sets. For each finite subset of α, consider the
partial sum of f on that subset. These partial sums form a Cauchy filter.
