Exercises — Residues and poles
4.10.5 · D4· Maths › Advanced Topics (Elite Level) › Residues and poles
Shuru karne se pehle, ek figure poora mental model fix kar deti hai: pole ek bhanwar (whirlpool) hai loop ke andar, aur residue us chakkaar ki taakat hai jo ek baar loop mein ghoomne ke baad bachti hai.

Wo ek fact jo har solution ko power karta hai (orientation convention ke saath, taaki sign kabhi surprise na kare):
Aur residue nikalne ke teen tarike:
Yahan ka matlab hai "woh number ", yaani Laurent series mein ka coefficient — woh ek term jo loop integral cancel nahi karta.
L1 — Recognition
Problem 1.1. Har function ke liye, par singularity ka naam batao (removable / pole of order / essential): (a) , (b) , (c) , (d) .
Recall Solution 1.1
Hum kya karte hain: ki woh sabse chhoti power dekho jo Laurent series mein expand karne par milti hai — negative powers ki count hi poori kahaani hai.
(a) — koi negative power nahi removable. (b) , toh — sabse chhota term ==pole of order ==. (c) — infinitely saari negative powers essential. (d) — sabse chhota term ==pole of order ==.
Problem 1.2. ke poles kahan hain, aur unka order kya hai?
Recall Solution 1.2
Hum kya karte hain: denominator factor karo. . Har factor pehli power mein hai, isliye aur dono simple poles hain (order ). Numerator wahan kabhi vanish nahi karta, toh kuch cancel nahi hota.
L2 — Application
Problem 2.1. nikalo.
Recall Solution 2.1
Hum kya karte hain: simple pole hai (single factor ). use karo. Yeh step kyun: se multiply karne par exactly woh offending factor delete ho jaata hai, aur kuch finite bachta hai jisme substitute kar sako.
Problem 2.2. par par quotient shortcut use karo.
Recall Solution 2.2
Hum kya karte hain: , , . Check karo: ✓, ✓, ✓. Yeh tool kyun: simple root ke paas , toh — shortcut ko factor karne ka algebra skip kar deta hai.
Problem 2.3. nikalo.
Recall Solution 2.3
Hum kya karte hain: order- pole hai, toh ke saath derivative formula use karo: Cross-check: 1.1(b) se, directly coefficient tha. ✓
L3 — Analysis (sahi tool chuno)
Problem 3.1. ke har residue nikalo.
Recall Solution 3.1
Hum kya karte hain: do singularities hain — (order ) aur (simple). Dono ke liye alag tools.
par (simple):
par (order , ): Sanity check (precise condition ke saath): residue at infinity ko define karo ka par residue ke roop mein. Ek general theorem kehta hai ki sab residues ka sum — har finite pole plus infinity wala point — exactly hai un functions ke liye jo finitely many isolated points ke alawa analytic hain. Jab rational ho aur par se tez decay kare (yahan , toh numerator degree denominator degree se kam-se-kam neeche hai), toh infinity par residue khud hota hai, aur theorem reduce ho jaata hai: finite residues ka sum hai. Check karo: ✓. (Agar sirf ki tarah decay karta hai, toh infinity par residue generally nonzero hoga aur yeh shortcut nahi lagega.)
Problem 3.2. ka par pole ka order determine karo, phir residue nikalo.
Recall Solution 3.2
Hum kya karte hain: pehle order. ke paas, . Square karne par: . Prefactor ka matlab ==order- pole== hai.
Residue (): maano . Pehle hum ki series derive karte hain, quote nahi karte. Likho aur use karo. Defining identity hai , yaani ki powers match karo:
- : ✓.
- : .
- : .
Toh — derived, assumed nahi. Square karo (sirf tak chahiye): Toh ka coefficient . Isliye Series kyun, brute derivative kyun nahi: ko directly differentiate karna par ka nightmare hai; (analytic, par value ) expand karna limit ko painless bana deta hai.
L4 — Synthesis (ideas milao)
Problem 4.1. evaluate karo (contour counter-clockwise).
Recall Solution 4.1
Hum kya karte hain: poles dhundo, check karo kaunse ke andar hain, unke residues add karo, se multiply karo. Poles aur par hain; dono satisfy karte hain, toh dono enclosed hain (har ek winding number ke saath).
Problem 4.2. Problem 4.1 jaisa integrand, lekin par (counter-clockwise). Evaluate karo.
Recall Solution 4.2
Hum kya karte hain: enclosure phir se test karo. Ab mein hai ( ✓) lekin nahi ( ✗). Sirf count hoga: . Punchline: wahi function alag integral deta hai kyunki loop ke andar alag set of whirlpools hain — contour decide karta hai, sirf function nahi.
L5 — Mastery (real integrals + subtlety)
Problem 5.1. Residues se compute karo.
Recall Solution 5.1
Hum kya karte hain: real integral ko ek closed contour ke real-axis piece ke roop mein dekho: real axis par segment , plus radius ka ek bada semicircle jo upper half plane mein ghoom ke wapas aata hai. Neeche wali figure bilkul yahi contour dikhati hai — aage padhne se pehle use study karo.
Us semicircle par jabki uski length hai, toh arc integral jab . Jo bachta hai: (real-line integral) (upper half plane ke andar residues). ke poles: ; sirf upper mein hai. Quotient shortcut (, ): Check: elementary antiderivative deta hai ✓.
Upar use kiya gaya contour — real segment (orange) upper arc (magenta) se close hota hai, single pole (violet) ko enclose karta hai jabki bahar baith jaata hai:

Figure mein notice karo ki orange real segment woh integral carry karta hai jo hume actually chahiye, magenta arc limit mein kuch contribute nahi karta, aur sirf violet enclosed pole residue sum mein jaata hai. Woh picture is level ki har problem ke liye template hai.
Problem 5.2. compute karo.
Recall Solution 5.2
Hum kya karte hain: wahi upper-semicircle setup (5.1 jaisi same figure, bas alag pole). Yahan denominator ki degree () numerator () se zyada hai, toh arc phir bhi vanish karta hai. Sirf upper pole hai, aur woh order- pole hai (kyunki ). Maano . ke liye: Quotient rule: par: , , numerator . Toh . Order kyun matter karta hai: ko simple maanna (sirf ke ek factor se multiply karna) denominator mein ek residual chodh dega aur blow up ho jaayega — yahi tell-tale sign hai ki tumne order undercount kiya.
Problem 5.3. directly Laurent series se read off karo.
Recall Solution 5.3
Hum kya karte hain: essential singularity hai — koi order- formula apply nahi hota, toh expand karo aur pick karo. term ke liye exponent chahiye , jo coefficient deta hai . Sirf series kyun: essential singularity ke liye kisi bhi finite ke liye analytic nahi ban pata, toh limit/derivative machinery ke paas kuch pakadne ko nahi hota — Laurent coefficient hi answer hai.

Recall Level checklist
- L1 done agar tum kuch compute kiye bina Laurent series se singularities classify kar sako.
- L2 done agar tum simple / quotient / order- sahi se choose karo aur yaad rakho.
- L3 done agar tum tool choose karne se pehle sahi pole order dhundo (squared denominators dekho).
- L4 done agar tum har contour ke liye sirf enclosed poles rakho.
- L5 done agar tum vanishing arc justify karo aur essential singularities ko series se handle karo.
