1. Show that f(z) = [1 - cosh(z)] / z3 has a pole as its singular point. Determine its order m & find the residue B.


2.

lim |f(z)| tends to \infty as z tends to singular point

bm + bm+1(z-z0)+...+ b1(z-z0)m-1 + \sum^{\infty}_{n = 0}an(z-z0)n= (z-z0) m f(z)


3. f(z) = [1 - cosh(z)] / z3 = 1/z3 - cos(iz)/z3

that's all i could do. I don't know how to do the limit of the cos part. does it approach infinity ? I think NOt right ?

please help asap.

thx in advnace

Expand out cosh(z) = cos(iz) using its Taylor series.

Doing this i get:

f(z) = 1 - (1 + z2/2 + z4 / 4! + z6 / 6! + ...)

= - \sum^{\infty}_{n = 1}z2n/(2n)! tends to 0 as z tends to 0

but this is not the limit we have for a pole. but its for a removable singular point. isn't it ?
