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,4z3+2z+3z2

Short Answer

Expert verified

For a functionf(z)=4z3+2z+3z2z= is a simple pole of f(z) and residue =-2.

Step by step solution

01

Concept of Residue at infinity

If a function is not analytic at z = a then has a singularity at z = a.

Order of pole is the highest no of derivative of the equation.

Residue at infinity:

Res(f(z),)=-Res(1z2f1z,0)

If lim|z|f(z)=0then the residue at infinity can be computed as:

Res(f,)=-lim|z|z·f(z)

Iflim|z|f(z)=c0 then the residue at infinity is as follows:

Res(f,)=-lim|z|z2·f'(z)

02

Simplify the function

Function is given as,f(z)=4z3+2z+3z2z.

Singularity can be check by equating denominator equals to 0 .

z2=0z=0

Singularity is atz=0.

So, from the definition of regular point:

f(z) Has pole of order 2 at z = 0.

f(z) Has a simple pole at z=

Order of the pole here is 2 .

Since, function can differentiate up-to 2nd derivative after that function is equals to 0 .

03

Find the residue of the function at  ∞

f(z)=4z3+2z+3z2f(z)=41z3+21z+31z2f1z=4+2z2+3z3z

Using residue formula and puttingf1z as follows:

Res(f(z),)=-Res1z2f1z,0(f(z),z)=-Res1z2·4+2z2+3z3z,0R(f(z),z)=-Res4+2z2+3z3z3,0R(f(z),z)=-limz012!·d2dz24+2z2+3z3

Therefore, R(f(z),z)=-2.

Hence, for a function,f(z)=4z3+2z+3z2.

z= Is a simple pole of f(z) , and residue=-2 .
