Study the convergence of teh following series:



$$sum_n=1^infty sinbigg((-1)^nlogbigg(1+frac1nbigg)+frac1n^2bigg)$$



Using the fact that $sin(-x)=-sin(x)$, I wrote again the series in the form:



$$sum_n=1^infty (-1)^nsinbigg(logbigg(1+frac1nbigg)+frac(-1)^nn^2bigg)$$



Then using Taylor series:
$$sum_n=1^infty (-1)^nbigg(frac1n-frac12n^2+obigg(frac1n^2bigg)+frac(-1)^nn^2bigg)$$



My aim would be that of using Leibniz, but how to handle $o$ in this case? Thank you.

    The last expression is sufficient for your purpose; $sum (-1)^n frac1n$ converges by the alternating series test, and $sum mathcalOleft( frac1n^2 right)$ converges by the comparison test.

Note that
$$sinbigg((-1)^nlogbigg(1+frac1nbigg)+frac1n^2bigg)=(-1)^na_n+b_n$$
where
$$a_n:=sinbigg(logbigg(1+frac1nbigg)bigg)cosbigg(frac1n^2bigg),quad b_n:=cosbigg(logbigg(1+frac1nbigg)bigg)sinbigg(frac1n^2bigg)$$
Show that $xto sin(log(1+x))cos(x^2)$ is positive and increasing in a right neighbourhood of zero. Hence $a_n$ decreases to zero and $sum_n(-1)^na_n$ is convergent by Leibniz. On the other hand $sum_nb_n$ is convergent because $b_nsim 1/n^2$. Hence the given series is convergent.

    Let $a_n:= sinbigg(logbigg(1+frac1nbigg)+frac1n^2bigg)$. Then $(a_n)$ is decreasing and $a_n to 0$. Hence , by Leibniz (not Leibnitz !):



    the series is convergent.

    $|sin (x +y)-sin y|leq |x|$ by MVT. Since $ sumsin (frac 1 n^2)$ is absoluetly convergent (because $|sin x | leq |x|$) it suffices to consider the series withous the $frac 1 n^2$ term. Here you can pull out the $(-1)^n$ and use the theorem that $sum (-1)^n a_n$ is convergent of $a_n$ decreases to $0$.
