Comments

When u(n) is a sequence of positive terms and Sum_{n>0} u(n) converges, if v(n) = u(n) / (1 + u(n)^2), then Sum_{n>0} v(n) also converges.

The converse is false; for example, when u(n) = n^2 then Sum_{n>0} u(n) = oo, but Sum_{n>0} n^2 / (n^4 + 1) is convergent and the limit of this series v(n) is this constant.

Note that if u(n) = 1 / n^2, n>0, then also v(n) = n^2 / (n^4 + 1).
