Completeness in normed space
A normed space X is complete if and only if every absolutely convergent series converges
If a normed space is complete, then every absolutely convergent series converges.
Suppose that $ $is a absolutely convergent series.(i.e.$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}||x_n||<\infty$ and denote
$$s_n=\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_i$$
Because $\ $ is a absolutely convergent series, there exists $k>0$ such that $$\sum_{n=k+1}^{\infty}x_n <\epsilon$$
$$||s_m-s_n||=|| \sum_{i=n+1}^{m} x_i||\le \sum_{i=n+1}^{m}||x_i||$$
if we let $n>k$, we can prove that $\ $ is a Cauchy series, then converges.(X is complete)
We need to prove if every absolutely convergent series in a normed space converges, then the normed space X is complete.
Let$\ $ be an Cauchy sequence in X and therefore $\forall \epsilon>0, \exists p_k\in \mathbb{N}, \forall m,n>p_k$, such that
$$ || x_m-x_n ||\le 2^{-k} $$
WLOG,we can assume $\ $ is strictly increasing.
Then the series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} (x_{p_{k+1}}-x_)$ is absolutely convergent and therefore, convergent and therefore, the sequence
$$ x_{ p_k }=x_{p_1}+(x_{p_2}-x_{p_1})+(x_{p_3}-x_{p_2})+\dots+(x_{p_k}-x_{p_{k-1}}) $$
converges to an element $x \in X$
Then
$$ || x_n-x ||\le|| x_n-x_{p_k} ||+|| x_{p_k} -x||\to 0 $$
