  Region of Convergence for the Z-transform
The region of convergence, known as the ROC, is important to understand because it defines the region where the z-transform exists.
The ROC for a given x[n], is defined as the range of z for which the z-transform converges.
The Region of Convergence has a number of properties that are dependent on the characteristics of the signal, x[n].

 Mathematical Transforms
This data type includes information on the region of convergence and the variables involved in the transformation, which is particularly useful in stability analysis.
In the case of the Z transform, the system is stable only if the unit circle is included in the region of convergence, while for the Laplace transform, the imaginary axis must be in the region of convergence.
From the region of convergence, we conclude that this is stable.

 What is regional inversion
Regional inversion is a process of radical change that involves overturning the established order of territorial influence.
Regional inversion is a long-term phenomenon occurring in multiple dimensions: economic, political, technological, social and cultural.
Convergence theory’s analytical scope seldom goes beyond established quantitative economic parameters and general equilibrium models, thereby excluding many factors, forces and phenomena that are crucial in deciding the dynamics of regional change.

 BIBO stability - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When the system is causal, the ROC is the open region to the right of a vertical line whose abscissa is the real part of the largest pole.
For a causal, rational, discrete time system, the condition for stability is that the region of convergence (ROC) of the z-transform includes the unit circle.
When the system is causal, the ROC is the open region outside a circle whose radius is the magnitude of the pole with largest magnitude.

 Convergence
convergence theory has carried a more specific connotation, referring to the hypothesized link between economic development and concomitant changes in social organization, particularly work and industrial organization, class structure, demographic patterns, characteristics of the family, education, and the role of government in assuring basic social and economic security.
The classic and most controversial application of convergence theory has been in the study of modernization, where it is associated with the idea that the experience of developing nations will follow the path charted by western industrialized nations.
            The critique of convergence theory in the study of modernization recalls critiques of earlier theories of societal evolution advanced under the rubric of social Darwinism in the nineteenth century and structural-functionalism in the mid-twentieth century.

The divergence of the mesoscale flow is small everwhere, less than f/10 (f=5e-5 at this latitude), except in a small region in the immediate lee of the island, where divergence is consistently negative.
The curl of the mesoscale flow is also small; a region of negative (anticyclonic) curl coincides with the region of convergence described above.
This region of convergence and anticyclonic circulation is consistent with known circulation patterns in the lee of the islands, and corresponds to Ekman convergence and anticyclonic spinup driven by windstress curl, as sketched below.

 Technological Diffusion, Spatial Spillovers And Regional Convergence In Europe
First, the role of technology heterogeneity and diffusion in the convergence of GDP per worker observed across the European regions, in the absence of data on regional TFP.
Second, the spatial pattern of the observed regional heterogeneity in technology and the relevance of this pattern for the econometric analysis of regional convergence in Europe.
We first develop a growth model where technology accumulation in lagging regions depends on their own propensity to innovate and on technology diffusion from the leading region, and convergence in GDP per worker is due to both capital deepening and catch-up.

 A Radical Approach to Real Analysis
Behavior on the circle that forms the boundary between the region of convergence and the region of divergence is more complicated.
The series might converge at all points on the circle, or it might diverge at all points on the circle, or it could converge at some points and diverge at others.
For the power series in (1.5.1.5), these are all points on the boundary between the region of convergence and the region of divergence.

 The Convergence Club
We mean something different: we mean by "convergence" the assimilation of countries outside of northwestern Europe of the institutions, technologies, and productivity levels currently in use in northwestern Europe and in the rest of the developed industrial core of the world economy.
So our definition of which economies are in the convergence club over a time period is not merely "did GDP per capita as a proportion of the North Atlantic level rise over the time period in question?" We require both relative income gains and a measure of industrial development as well.
And as time passed, the process of diffusion gathered force and the size of the "convergence club"--the region to which structural change and industrial development were diffusing fast enough to reduce the relative gap vis-a-vis the core of the world economy--grew.

 USC-SIPI REPORT #303   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
We conclude that convergence is guaranteed (assuming no spurious local minima in the error function) by using a sufficiently high gain and a sufficiently low exposure energy.
This is because this convergence condition is derived for the noise-free case and therefore does not account for the detrimental affects of detection noise on convergence.
We conclude that for a given optical system it may not be possible to simultaneously satisfy the convergence condition while maintaining neural-space signal variances that are sufficiently small to allow the learning algorithm to converge.

 Power series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Once a function is given as a power series, it is continuous wherever it converges and is differentiable on the interior of this set.
Every power series with a positive radius of convergence is analytic on the interior of its region of convergence.
On the other hand, in the interior of this region of convergence one may differentiate and integrate under the series sign, just as one may with ordinary power series.

 PACS-SONET Original Proposal for more observing sites
The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) over the eastern Pacific Ocean, as the region of convergence between the northern Hemisphere easterly trade wind flow and the southeast trades of the southern Hemisphere, is the locus of some of the highest precipitation values found anywhere on the globe.
Since the observations over this region are from mobile platforms (ships, aircraft) or observations that otherwise vary irregularly in space and time (cloud-drift winds), there are no independent long-term observations that can be used to validate the accuracy of the mean fields derived from the assimilation-based analyses.
This region is quite close, in relative terms, to a region of substantial data (Central America) and uncertainties farther offshore are likely to be higher.

Once convergence has thickened the crust over a broad region, the available plate forces to overcome spreading forces, rather than forces within individual thrust sheets, determines the evolution of an orogen.
The orogen can grow wider by thickening crust over a broader region and convergence between the major plates of the orogen can continue as major strike-slip ``indentor'' faults allow parts of the colliding plates to move laterally from the collision zone without widening it.
The north-south convergence associated with plate motions occurs within the Himalayas and on indentor faults.
