Convergence and divergence of series and sequences (40A05) Extremal set theory (05D05)

Abstract: It is proved that given any three conditionally convergent series of real numbers, there is a single sequence of natural numbers such that each of the corresponding three subseries sums to either $infty$ or $-infty$. An example is provided to show that the analogous statement for four series is false.
