Find out whether infinity is a regular point, an essential singularity, or a pole (and if a pole, of what order) for each of the following functions. Find the residue of each function at infinity,.
Let f(z) be expanded in the Laurent series that is valid for all z outside some circle, that is,(see Section 4). This series is called the Laurent series "about infinity." Show that the result of integrating the Laurent series term by term around a very large circle (of radius > M) in the positive direction, is (just as in the original proof of the residue theorem in Section 5). Remember that the integral "around " is taken in the negative direction, and is equal to : (residue at ). Conclude that . Caution: In using this method of computing be sure you have the Laurent series that converges for all sufficiently large z.
