Homework Statement
Let ##g(z_1,z_2)## be a rational function where the only possible singularities are at ##z_1 = 0##, ##z_2 = 0##, and ##z_1 = z_2##. Verify the following: ##\text{Res}_{z_2 = 0}\text{Res}_{z_1 = z_2} g(z_1,z_2) =- \text{Res}_{z_1 = 0}\text{Res}_{z_2 = z_1} g(z_1,z_2)##
Relevant Equations
##\text{Res}_{z_2 = 0}\text{Res}_{z_1 = z_2} g(z_1,z_2) =- \text{Res}_{z_1 = 0}\text{Res}_{z_2 = z_1} g(z_1,z_2)##
I think we should be able to verify this by the residue theorem, but I'm having trouble applying it to the case when there is a singularity at ##z_1 = z_2##

To understand the problem exactly you mean for an example
g=\frac{1}{z_1}-\frac{1}{z_2}+\frac{1}{z_1-z_2}?

Yeah exactly
 
Thanks. Then I would like to know how shall I take double ResRes as you do in your formula. Could you show me how to do in this example?
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
