How to find the Residues of a Complex Function

  • In this video, I describe 3 techniques behind finding residues of a complex function: 1) Using the Laurent series, 2) A residue-finding approach for simple poles, and 3) A residue-finding approach for non-simple poles.
    I also prove/verify these techniques, which are ultimately going to be used to calculate complex integrals (and even real integrals) when applying the Residue Theorem.
    Questions/suggestions? Let me know in the comments! Also, yes, I spelled 'technique' wrong at 8:50. Pls forgive my transgression.

    i find it incredible that i pay a lot of money to attend a top ranked uni and be taught this, but end up learning all of it for free on youtube. this is amazing, thank you.

    This is not just a lecture on complex variables and residues. This is a service to the human race. Years back when I took complex variables at Stanford, it was near impossible to understand Cauchy's theorem, residues, and their uses. It took me an extremely long time to understand what this lecture communicated in 15 minutes. Current students from the University fo Toronto, which prides itself as one of the worlds top 20 post some horror stories about their freshmen courses in calculus, physics and YES even pedestrian chemistry and biology.

    • @uhbayhue
      @uhbayhue 2 года назад +3

      4 years late, but I got a solution for you!
      Suppose a pole z0 lies on the real axis while you consider a contour in the upper half-plane. Then, you approximate z0 as z0+ i*p, in the limit as p approaches 0. That is, z0 = lim (p --> 0) [ z0 + i*p]. The addition of i*p removes the pole from the boundary and pushes it into the upper half plane. You can equivalently let z0 go to z0 - i*p to push it into the lower half plane.
      So replace every instance of z0 with z0 +/- i*p, simplify, and take the limit at the end. This way, you can tackle poles on boundaries of contours.

    I might be missing something here, and technically you are correct, but surely for a function f(z) having a pole of order n, it is unnecessary to multiply the Laurent Series for f about the pole α by (z - α) to any exponent greater than n. Indeed (as demonstrated in your last example) for such a function f, with Res(f, α) the residue of f,
    Res(f, α) = (1/(n-1)!) lim(z → α) d^(n-1)/dz^(n-1) [(z - α)^n f(z)]
    For m > n, all that we achieve is more work in determining the residue, as fun as repeated differentiating may be.

    I think I'm being very dim but I don't get the first example. The taylor series of the sin(z) is the analytic part right? I dont get how dividing through by 1/z^2 makes it the principal part. I'm clearly not getting how to construct the Laurent series. Does anyone know of any pages that go through step by step how to get the laurent series without the taylor series shortcut?

    I don't really see why for a pole of order n we can't just multiply with (z -zo)^n. Souldn't it also give us the residue at zo? Obviously what I say is wrong because it doesn't give the same result but I can't find out why.
    EDIT: I just got it if we multiply by (z-zo)^n we would actually get bn and not b1

    Another important technique: If you have a function of the form f(z)=p(z)/q(z), where q(z) has a zero at z=a but its first derivative is nonzero at z=a, and p(a) is nonzero, the residue at z=a will be equal to p(a)/q'(a).

    well , if lim (z-z_0)f(z) when z tends to z_0 tends to infinity , z_0 also could be a essential singularity but if there is a finite n such the lim((z-z_0)^n)f(z) is finite, then z_0 is nesesarily a pole

    Hi! Thanks for the nice video!
    I have a question, for the case of finding the residue for a pole of higher than 1 order, let's take as an example a pole of 2nd order. Wouldn't it give the same result and also be simpler if the residue would be calculated as lim z-> z0 { (z-z0)^2 * F(z)} instead of doing so many derivatives?
    it means that it would apply to a pole of any order n>=1 as follows:
    R[z0]= lim z-> z0 { (z-z0)^n * F(z)} with n = the order of the pole.
    What is the difference?
    Thanks!
