There is the identity
[tex] \dfrac{1}{1-x+i0} = PV \dfrac{1}{x} - i \pi \delta(1-x) [/tex]
PV corresponds to Cauchy principal value.
But how can I handle a term like
[tex] \dfrac{1}{(x-i0)(1-x+i0)} [/tex]
and how can I use the identity above? I tried several things such as writing
[tex] \dfrac{1}{(x-i0)(1-x+i0)} = \dfrac{1}{x(1-x) + i (x-1) 0} = PV \dfrac{1}{x(1-x)} - i \pi \delta(x(1-x)) \text{signum}(x-1) [/tex]
But I don't know to handle this term correctly. Could anyone help me please?
