Need help on whether the following series converge or diverge:

SUM,n=1,infinity (e/pi)^n-1

SUM,n=1,infinity n^3e^(-n^3)

SUM,n=1,infinity (n^2+1)/(n^3+1)

Thanks

Hint: e/pi < 0.9

SUM,n=1,infinity n^3e^(-n^3)
Hint: e^(-n^3) = 1 / (1+n^3+0.5*n^6+...) < 2/n^6

SUM,n=1,infinity (n^2+1)/(n^3+1)
Hint: (n^2+1)/(n^3+1) >= 1/n

Thanks

Best wishes
Torsten.
