Section 7 SECTION 7 Power Series II - Laurent Series (1) Negative Powers (2) Convergence within an Annulus (3) Laurent’s Theorem (4) Singular Points
We saw that we can expand a function in a Taylor series about a centre. For example, Section 7 Also, we can expand functions about different centres. For example Notice that (a) we always have positive powers of (zz0) (b) the series converges inside a disk
Section 7 But there is another type of series we can have which (a) includes negative powers of (zz0) (b) converges within an annulus Such series are called Laurent Series Example converges for 1z 2 centre singular points at z1, 2
Section 7 But there is another type of series we can have which (a) includes negative powers of (zz0) (b) converges within an annulus Such series are called Laurent Series Example converges for 1z 2 centre singular points at z1, 2
Laurent Series always converge within an annulus Section 7 If we take a function and plot its singular points, we’ll be able to separate the complex plane into different regions of convergence. Example centre centre inside a disk z 1 - ordinary Taylor series with positive powers in an annulus 1z - Laurent series
Laurent Series always converge within an annulus Section 7 If we take a function and plot its singular points, we’ll be able to separate the complex plane into different regions of convergence. Example centre centre inside a disk z 1 - ordinary Taylor series with positive powers in an annulus 1z - Laurent series
Laurent Series always converge within an annulus Section 7 If we take a function and plot its singular points, we’ll be able to separate the complex plane into different regions of convergence. Example centre centre inside a disk z 1 - ordinary Taylor series with positive powers in an annulus 1z - Laurent series
Section 7 Of course we could have different centres ... centre centre in an annulus 2z1 - Laurent series inside a disk z12 - Taylor series
Section 7 We could even have the centre at the singular point ... In this case the series is only be valid for 0z1 - a disk with the singular point / centre punched out of it centre In fact the series in this case is simply the single term !
Section 7 We could even have the centre at the singular point ... In this case the series is only be valid for 0z1 - a disk with the singular point / centre punched out of it centre In fact the series in this case is simply the single term !
Section 7 Example (1) How many series does the function have about the centre z14 ? The function has two singularities (simple poles), at 1, 2. 7/4z14 z1454 5/4z147/4
The annulus is always between two singular points Section 7 Example (1) How many series does the function have about the centre z14 ? The function has two singularities (simple poles), at 1, 2. 7/4z14 z1454 5/4z147/4
Section 7 Example (2) How many series does the function have about the centre z0 ? The function has one singularity (second order pole). z2 2z
Example (3) Section 7 How many series does the function have about the centre z2 ? The function has three singularities (simple poles). z21 1z22 2z25 5z2
Question: Section 7 How many series does the function have about the centre z1 ?
How do we find these Laurent Series ? Laurent’s Theorem Section 7 Suppose that the function f(z) is analytic in an annulus with centre z0. Then the Laurent series is where C Pierre Alphonse Laurent (1843) compare with Section 6, slide 15
Since converges for z 1, the series converges for 1z 1, or z 1 Finding Laurent Series Section 7 As with the Taylor series, there are many ways to find the Laurent series of a function. We don’t actually use the complicated formulae on the previous slide. One method is to use the geometric series, as we did with Taylor series. Example (1) Expand the function 1(1z) in negative powers of z
Since converges for z 1, the series converges for (z 2)(i2)1, or (z 2)5 Example (2) Section 7 Expand the function 1(iz) in powers of z2
Since converges for z 1, the series converges for (i2) (z2)1, or (z2)(i2) 1, or z 25 Example (2) cont. Section 7 But there is another possibility - expand the function 1(iz) in negative powers of z2
Example (3) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z1 converges for 0z 1
Example (3) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z1 converges for 0z 1 Here, the centre is the actual singular point !
Section 7 Note - this will help make sense of Laurent Series Each Laurent series consists of two parts: INSIDE positive powers (Taylor series) OUTSIDE negative powers (the “Principal Part”)
Example (4) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z0 How many ways can we do this ? centre (a) z 1 (b) 1z 3 (c) 3z
Example (4) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z0 How many ways can we do this ? centre (a) z 1 (b) 1z 3 (c) 3z
Example (4) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z0 How many ways can we do this ? centre (a) z 1 (b) 1z 3 (c) 3z
Example (4) Section 7 Expand the function about the centre z0 How many ways can we do this ? centre (a) z 1 (b) 1z 3 (c) 3z
Section 7 (a) z 1 inside disk - positive terms
Section 7 (a) z 1 inside disk - positive terms
Section 7 (b) 1z 3 negative powers 1z positive powers z 3
On the previous slide, how did we know which term to expand in negative powers and which, if any, to expand in positive powers ? Section 7 The term is “outside” - negative terms The term is “inside” - positive terms The final annulus is where they overlap
Section 7 (c) 3z negative powers 3z positive powers z
Section 7 Singular Points A Singular Point z0 of a function f (z) is where f (z) is not analytic. There are two main different types of singular point. Isolated Singularity Non-isolated Singularity isolated not isolated
Section 7 Isolated Singularities There are two types of isolated singularity We can form the Laurent series with centre z0, valid or 0z z0R Pole of order m The Laurent series “stops” (at the mth negative power) Essential Singularity The Laurent series is infinite (in negative powers) here, centre is singular point

Example (3) Section 7 Classify the singularity of the function This is a pole of order 3 0z Example (4) Classify the singularity of the function This is an essential singularity 0zi
Section 7 Note: there are a couple of good reasons for classifying singularities into poles and essential singularities. (1) When we have poles we have lots of formulae for evaluating integrals (see next section) (2) Functions with poles as z0 is approached (from any direction) - those with essential singularities take on many different values depending on the direction of approach
