Instructions: To be submitted on Thursday next week.


ez
1.) Show that the singular points of f (z) = (z−1)3
is a pole. Determine the order m of the pole
and the residue at the pole.

(5 marks)

2.) Considering the function below, write the principal part at its expansion about its iso-
lated singular point, and determine whether that point is a pole, essential or a removable
singularity.
cos(z − 31 ) − 1
f (z) =
3z − 1

(5 marks)

z2
3.) Let f (z) = (z−1)(z+1)2

a) Resolve f (z) into partial fractions


(4 marks)

b) Hence evaluate c
f (z)dz where C is the circle |z| = 1.
(3 marks)
R∞ cos Z
4.) Evaluate −∞
f (z)dz where f (z) = z2

(7 marks)

ez
5.) i) Obtain the Laurent series expansion of f (z) = z3
about z = 0.
(3 marks)
ii) State the type of singular point at z = 0 and justify your answer.
(2 marks)
iii) Use the Laurent series expansion obtained in i) above to find the residue of
z
f (z) = ze3 at z = 0.
