Integral 7.2 is ok. I must employ the integration technique used in 7.2 to prove that integral equation 7.1 equals zero. For n<0 we have : $$\sum_{n=- \infty}^{-2} a_n \oint (z-z_0)^ndz$$For n>0 we have : $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n \oint (z-z_0)^ndz$$ According to Cauchy's Integral Theorem...

1. ##f(z)=\dfrac {\sin z}{z- \pi}## at ##z=\pi## : $$ \dfrac {\sin z}{z- \pi}=\dfrac {\sin(\pi +z- \pi)}{z- \pi}=\dfrac {- \sin(z- \pi)}{z- \pi}=\dfrac {-1}{z- \pi} \sum_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac {(-1)^n (z- \pi)^{2n}}{(2n+1)!}$$My answer has extra ##\dfrac {-1}{z- \pi} ## according to a calculator...

I'm not sure if this should be in the calculus section or the anlaysis section. It's complex analysis related to integration around a contour. Can someone suggest a method to determine the residue of f(z) = ## \frac{1}{Cosh ( \pi z) } ## at the singular point z = i/2. Background...

This question is given as an example in the book by Arfken, Weber, Harris, Mathematical Methods - a Comprehensive Guide, Seventh Edition. It is solved as below attached in the image. Can someone point it out how they proceed with calculations ? I do not seem to get their calculation. I am...

I'm really struggling with this one. A newbie to using the residue theorem. I'm trying to solve this by factorising the denominator to find values for z0 and I have: ##z=\frac{-\sqrt{2}+i\sqrt{2}}{2}## and ##z=\frac{-\sqrt{2}-i\sqrt{2}}{2}## I also know that sin(3π/8)=...

From plotting the given path I know that the path is a curve that extends from z = 1 to z=5 on the complex plane. My plan was to parametrize the distance from z = 1 to 5 as z = x, and create a closed contour that encloses z=0, where I could use Cauchy's Integral Formula, with f(z) being 1 / (z +...

There is a typo. It should say ##h=\frac{f}{g}##. Attempt: ##f## and ##g## are holomorphic on ##\Omega##. Homomorphic functions form a ##\mathcal{C}^*## algebra, so ##h## is holomorphic on ##\Omega## where ##g\neq 0##. If ##z_0## is a removal singularity of ##h##, then ##Res(h,z_0)=0## by...

First of all I am not sure which type of singularity is ##z=0##? \ln\frac{\sqrt{z^2+1}}{z}=\ln (1+\frac{1}{z^2})^{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\ln (1+\frac{1}{z^2})=\frac{1}{2}\sum^{\infty}_{n=0}(-1)^{n}\frac{(\frac{1}{z^2})^{n+1}}{n+1} It looks like that ##Res[f(z),z=0]=0##

Hi, I'm trying to find the residue of $$f(z) = \frac{z^2}{(z^2 + a^2)^2}$$ Since I have 2 singularities which are double poles. I'm using this formula $$Res f(± ia) = \lim_{z\to\ \pm ia}(\frac{1}{(2-1)!} \frac{d}{dz}(\frac{(z \pm a)^2 z^2}{(z^2 + a^2)^2}) )$$ then, $$\lim_{z\to\ \pm ia}...

I put a knife at bottom of the dish washer, and this was the result after 2 hour cleaning and drying time (just rarely though). What is the white powder? Is it the salt? The soap? scales from hard water? Or dried rinse aid? I recently acquired dish washer. It seemed to clean the dishes and...

My lecturer said it means: "3rd residue, C-terminal to Helix 'H'" but that makes no sense. If it's the 3rd residue then it can't be on the C-terminal, because the C-terminal is at the end of a massively long sequence of residues. Visa versa if it's on the C-terminal then it can't be the 3rd...

Hi, I am trying to create residue 3 automata using Moore. I can't understand why we go to state q1 when we have input 0 in q0 and similalry why we go to q2 when we have input zero in q1. I have attached an image of FA. Some body please guide me. Zulfi.

The singularities occur at ##z = \pm i\lambda##. As ##\frac{d}{dz}(z^2+\lambda^2)^2|_{z=\pm i\lambda}=0##, these singularities aren't first order and the residues cannot be calculated with differentiating the denominator and evaluating it at the singularities. What is the general method to...

When The denominator is checked, the poles seem to be at Sin(πz²)=0, Which means πz²=nπ ⇒z=√n for (n=0,±1,±2...) but in the solution of this problem, it says that, for n=0 it would be simple pole since in the Laurent expansion of (z∕Sin(πz²)) about z=0 contains the highest negative power to be...

Homework Statement Homework Equations First find poles and then use residue theorem. The Attempt at a Solution Book answer is A. But there's no way I'm getting A. The 81 in numerator doesn't cancel off.

I have no idea if this is in the right direction. I know I am going to need the summation of the residues to use the theorem. I found the residues using the limit, but do I need to change these using the euler formula? We are supposed to be working problems at home and I am getting a bit lost...

Our Hero has a disintegrator, invented by Dr. Someguy, and he fires it at rock blocking his path through a cave system. Would the disintegrated material be loose particles of dust or would it disappear? Disappearing would imply energy release of some quantity? Loose dust would be a possible...

Hello! Why do the singularities in the Residue Theorem must be isolated? If we have let's say a disk around ##z_0##, ##D_{[z_0,R]}## where all the points are singularities for a function ##f:G \to C## with the disk in region G, but f is holomorphic in ##G-D_{[z_0,R]}##, we can still write f as a...

Hi everyone! If I have a sample that didn’t present conductivity and left a solid evaporation residue but its density is approximately 1 g/mL (1,08 g/mL), can I still say it is pure water? I suppose pure water shouldn’t have any kind of solid residue. Thanks!

Homework Statement Hi, I am trying to understand the attached: I know that if two functions have zeros and poles at the same point and of the same order then they differ only by a multiplicative constant, so that is fine, as both have a double zero at ##z=w_j/2## and a double pole at...

So, I have made an experiment of a low pass filter, and made a bode plot out of it. My experiment was done 100 percent in Japanese and this means I cannot understand completely the experiment I have done. So, there is a statement there saying the higher the frequency of the input voltage, the...

When one uses a contour integral to evaluate an integral on the real line, for example \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{dz}{(1+x)^{3}} is it correct to say that one analytically continues the integrand onto the complex plane and integrate it over a closed contour ##C## (over a semi-circle of radius...

I had a roommate that is a regular user of meth. I recently found out that smoking meth leaves a residue behind that can be absorbed through the skin, which worries me because I let him borrow my car and he smoked meth in it before.
