AbstractA theorem concerning the asymptotic behaviour of partial sums of the coefficients of products of Dirichlet series is proved using properties of regularly varying functions. This theorem is a multiplicative analogue of Schur's Tauberian theorem for power series.

The random walk arising in the game of roulette involves an absorbing barrier at the origin; at each step either a unit displacement to the left or a fixed multiple displacement to the right can occur with probabilities q and p respectively. Using generating functions and Lagrange's theorem for the expansion of a function as a power series explicit expressions are deduced for the probabilities of the player's capital at the nth step.

Let pn>0 be such that pn diverges, and the radius of convergence of the power seriesis 1. Given any series σan with partial sums sn, we shall use the notationand

We prove the existence of a power series having radius of convergence 0, whose partial sums have universal approximation properties on any compact set with connected complement that is contained in a finite union of circles centred at 0 and having rational radii, but do not have such properties on any compact set with nonempty interior. This relates to a theorem of A. I. Seleznev.
