Exercises — Complex integration — contour integrals
4.10.2 · D4· Maths › Advanced Topics (Elite Level) › Complex integration — contour integrals
Shuru karne se pehle, ek shared picture samajh lo is "playground" ki. Ek contour woh curve hai jiske saath hum complex numbers ke flat plane mein chalte hain; ek pole woh point hai jahan function "blow up" ho jaata hai (ek "spike"). Pura khel yeh hai: kya woh spike mere loop ke andar hai ya nahi?
Figure 1 — aise padhna. Kaala circle contour hai jisme counterclockwise arrow hai (positive direction). Laal cross par andar baitha hai: wahan ka ek pole contribute karta hai. Kaala cross par bahar baitha hai: yeh contribute karta hai. Yeh akela "inside vs outside" test neeche ki har problem ko drive karta hai.

L1 — Recognition
Goal: tool ka naam batao. Koi bhaari computation nahi.
Recall Solution 1.1
Kaun sa tool? Tool 2, the -loop lemma: sirf tab jab ho, warna .
- mein hai, toh .
- mein hai, toh .
Kyun: unit circle par hai, toh integrand ban jaata hai. Ek pura loop kisi bhi "hilte" exponential ka average zero kar deta hai — jab tak use constant nahi bana deta, jo bach jaata hai.
Recall Solution 1.2
Kaun sa tool? Tool 3, Cauchy's Integral Theorem. Integrand ek polynomial hai, jo har jagah analytic hai — loop ke andar toh koi "spike" hai hi nahi. Kyun, Green's theorem ke zariye spell out karein. , likhne par, ke real aur imaginary parts do line integrals aur ban jaate hain. Green's theorem har closed line integral ko enclosed region par ek area integral mein badal deta hai: "Green's-theorem integrands" hain aur . Kisi analytic ke liye Cauchy–Riemann equations dono ko exactly zero bana dete hain, toh dono area integrals vanish ho jaate hain aur loop hota hai.
Recall Solution 1.3
Kaun sa tool? "Kya spike andar hai?" Pole par hai. Contour radius ka circle hai. Kyunki hai, pole bahar hai (Figure 1 ke kaale cross ki tarah). Loop ke andar function analytic hai, toh
L2 — Application
Goal: ek tool cleanly chalao, shuru se ant tak.
Recall Solution 2.1
Parametrise (Tool 1): seedhi line linear hoti hai, for , toh aur . Ab hai, toh answer hai . Sanity check: analytic hai, toh answer antiderivative ke endpoints par evaluate hone ke barabar hona chahiye: . ✔
Recall Solution 2.2
Kaun sa tool? Tool 3, CIF: . Match karo: , . Pole , hai, toh yeh ke andar hai, aur wahan analytic hai.
Recall Solution 2.3
Pehle factor karo: , jisse aur par simple poles milte hain; dono ka modulus hai, toh dono andar hain. Cover-up method (upar ki definition dekho): ke liye cover karo, bache hue mein substitute karo ; ke liye cover karo, bache mein substitute karo : Sum hai, toh Residue Theorem se
L3 — Analysis
Goal: sahi tool chunna aur justify karna ki baaki kyun fail karte hain.
Recall Solution 3.1
Poles locate karo: (modulus , andar) aur (modulus , bahar). Sirf count karta hai (exactly Figure 1 ka "inside vs outside" test). Simple pole par cover-up: factor cover karo, baki mein substitute karo:
Recall Solution 3.2
Residues kyun nahi? (conjugate) analytic nahi hai — yeh Cauchy–Riemann equations fail karta hai — toh koi Cauchy/residue machinery nahi lagti. Hume haath se parametrise karna hoga (Tool 1). Parametrise karo: for ; tab aur . Path-dependence check: se tak seedhi line par, lo (), jo real hai toh aur : Do paths, same endpoints, alag answers ( vs ) — path-dependence confirm ho gayi, exactly isliye kyunki analytic nahi hai.
Figure 2 — aise padhna. Dono paths se shuru hote hain aur par khatam. Laal upar wala semicircle deta hai; kaala seedha segment real axis ke saath deta hai. Same endpoints, alag answers — yeh visual proof hai ki path-dependent hai kyunki analytic nahi hai. (Kisi analytic se tulna karo, jahan Figure 1 ki logic dono paths ko agree karne par majboor kar deti.)

L4 — Synthesis
Goal: real integral crack karne ke liye contour tricks combine karo.

Recall Solution 4.1
Plan: ki jagah complex lo, ko real axis ke aas-paas integrate karo jo upper half-plane mein radius ke bade semicircle se close ho (counterclockwise, positive orientation), phir karo. Arc check (degree test): yahaan , hai, aur , toh arc vanish ho jaata hai. Isliye closed loop real-line integral ke barabar hai. Poles: . Sirf upper half-plane mein hai. Cover-up / derivative residue at (, ke saath): Check: mein dalo toh milta hai. ✔
Edge case — LOWER half-plane mein close karna. Tum real axis ko neeche semicircle se bhi close kar sakte ho. Woh loop clockwise trace hota hai, toh woh ke barabar hai. Neeche ka akela pole hai jiska hai, jisse milta hai — wahi answer, jaisa hona chahiye. Do orientations, ek sachch: orientation reverse karne ka doosre residue ke sign flip ko cancel kar deta hai.
Recall Solution 4.2
Poles: ki roots hain . Upper half-plane mein do hain: aur . Arc check (degree test): , , , toh arc contribution hai. Cover-up / derivative residues of , ke saath, toh :
\operatorname{Res}_{z_2}=\frac{1}{4e^{i3\pi/4}}=\tfrac14 e^{-i3\pi/4}.$$ Sum $=\tfrac14\big(e^{-i\pi/4}+e^{-i3\pi/4}\big)=\tfrac14\big(\cos\tfrac\pi4 - i\sin\tfrac\pi4 - \cos\tfrac\pi4 - i\sin\tfrac\pi4\big)=\tfrac14\big(-2i\sin\tfrac\pi4\big)=\tfrac14\left(-2i\cdot\tfrac{\sqrt2}{2}\right)=-\tfrac{i\sqrt2}{4}.$ $$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{x^2}{x^4+1}\,dx = 2\pi i\left(-\frac{i\sqrt2}{4}\right)=\frac{\pi\sqrt2}{2}=\frac{\pi}{\sqrt2}.$$L5 — Mastery
Goal: higher-order poles, Laurent series, aur full case-handling.
Recall Solution 5.1
Method A — Laurent series ( padho). expand karo aur se divide karo (har power do se neeche aati hai): ka coefficient hai. Woh akela term hi ek loop ka survivor hai (Tool 2), toh Method B — order- formula (cross-check). Yahaan , hai. se multiply karo: . Ek baar differentiate karo: . Limit lo aur se divide karo: Dono methods agree karte hain: , integral . ✔
Recall Solution 5.2
Poles: (, andar), (, andar), (, bahar). aur rakho. Cover-up method (har pole par factor cover karo, baki plug in karo): Sum hai, toh Residue Theorem se
Recall Solution 5.3
Substitution trick: set karo toh jab , run karta hai, unit circle ko ek baar counterclockwise traverse karta hai (positive orientation). Tab Kyun: hai, toh ; yeh trig integral ko ek rational contour integral mein convert kar deta hai. Substitution ka poora algebra (step by step): Toh integrand times hai
= \frac{1}{iz\,(5+2z+2z^{-1})}\,dz = \frac{1}{i\,(5z+2z^{2}+2)}\,dz,$$ jahan aakhiri step mein $iz$ ka $z$, bracket mein multiply hua: $z(5+2z+2z^{-1})=5z+2z^2+2$. Isliye $$\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{d\theta}{5+4\cos\theta}=\oint_{|z|=1}\frac{dz}{i\,(2z^2+5z+2)}.$$ **Denominator factor karo:** $2z^2+5z+2=(2z+1)(z+2)$, toh poles hain $z=-\tfrac12$ (andar, $|{-\tfrac12}|<1$) aur $z=-2$ (bahar). Sirf $z=-\tfrac12$ count karta hai. **Cover-up residue** of $\dfrac{1}{i(2z+1)(z+2)}$ at $z=-\tfrac12$ ($2z+1=2(z+\tfrac12)$ likho, $(z+\tfrac12)$ cover karo): $$\operatorname{Res}_{-1/2}=\frac{1}{i\cdot 2\,(z+2)}\bigg|_{z=-1/2}=\frac{1}{i\cdot 2\cdot \tfrac32}=\frac{1}{3i}.$$ $$\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{d\theta}{5+4\cos\theta}=2\pi i\cdot\frac{1}{3i}=\frac{2\pi}{3}.$$Recall Master check — ek-line reasons
Ex 3.1 mein ne contribute kyun nahi kiya? ::: Yeh ke bahar hai, toh enclosed nahi hai. ko kaun sa tool handle karta hai aur kyun? ::: Direct parametrisation, kyunki analytic nahi hai (koi residues nahi). ko contour integral mein kaise badloge? ::: , , set karo. ka par residue? ::: , kyunki . Order- formula plain cover-up tak kab reduce hota hai? ::: Jab (simple pole): koi derivative nahi, bas substitute karo. Contour ki orientation reverse karne par kya hota hai? ::: Integral se multiply ho jaata hai (clockwise = negative).

- Residue theorem applications — L4 aur L5 exactly yahi techniques hain.
- Laurent series — Ex 5.1 mein double-pole residue ek coefficient read-off hai.
- Cauchy–Riemann equations — isliye Ex 3.2 ka path-dependent hai.
- Analytic functions — "loop " aur "loop counts spikes" ke beech ki dividing line.
- Green's theorem — woh engine jo Cauchy's theorem ko pehli jagah sach banata hai.
Concept Map
Neeche ka flowchart woh decision tree hai jo tumhe har contour integral par chalana chahiye: pehle poochho ki , andar analytic hai ya nahi; agar haan toh loop hai; agar nahi, toh enclosed poles dhoondo, har residue compute karo (simple cover-up; higher-order Laurent ya order- formula), aur unhe se multiply karke sum karo. Real integrals semicircle close karke ya substitute karke aate hain.
