You are doing things the wrong way. A Taylor series
exists for a function
that is analytical in a circle around the origin. In
that case the Taylor
series is convergent within that circle. When a
Taylor series does exist
we can get the n-th derivative of it by taking the
n-th derivative of the
terms, constructing a new Taylor series. And we can
integrate the function
by integrating the terms (where we have to insert
suitable constant terms).
A function for which the n-th derivative does not
exist at x = 0 does not
have a Taylor series expansion at all. (An example
is x^3.|x|, which has
first, second, third and fourth derivatives, but for
which the fifth
derivative at x = 0 does not exist, so it is not
analytical in x = 0 and
so does not have a Taylor series expansion.)
> what is the analogue for an integral ??
wich series can be expressed in the nth integrall ??
See above. Although I do not understand the second
question.

once agian i am misunderstood ...
i understand taylor series perfectly ...
radius of convergeance too...
thats NOT the issue here !!!
considering f(x+a) = f(a)+f'(a)x +...
(taylor ) it is clear that taylor is a power series ( infinite polynomial of x )
and a series of nth derivates ( f^n(a))
i am looking for the analogue of nth integrals ...
