Find the Laurent Series around z=0 for [tex]f(z) = \frac{{2{z^2}}}{{2{z^2} - 5z + 2}} + \sin (\frac{3}{{{z^2}}})[/tex], so that the series absolutely converges in z = -i
The singularities of f are z = 0, z = 1/2 and z=2. The Laurent series will converge absolutely in z = -i for the one whose ROC is 1/2 <|z|< 2.
First, I tried to separate the polynomial fraction in partial fractions:
[tex]\frac{{2{z^2}}}{{2{z^2} - 5z + 2}} = 2{z^2}\left( {\frac{1}{{(z - 2)(z - \frac{1}{2})}}} \right) = 2{z^2}\left( {\frac{2}{{3(z - 2)}} - \frac{2}{{3(z - \frac{1}{2})}}} \right)[/tex].
I left the 2z2 outside because it is its own Laurent series around z = 0 for all z, so I can work the partial fractions easier (I don't remember how to do it when the grades of both polynomials are the same).
Second, I find the series for each fraction and for the sine around z = 0 in the ring 1/2 <|z|< 2. For that, I will have to find the Laurant series of the fraction with (z - 1/2) around a vecinity of infinite. I will compare the fractions with the geometrical series and use a variable change for the sine:
a) [tex]\frac{2}{{3(z - 2)}} = \frac{{ - 2}}{{3(2 - z)}} = \frac{{ - 1}}{{3(1 - \frac{z}{2})}} = \frac{{ - 1}}{3}\left( {\frac{1}{{1 - \frac{z}{2}}}} \right) = \frac{{ - 1}}{3}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{{z^n}}}{{{2^n}}}} ,\forall z/\left| z \right| < 2[/tex]
b)[tex]\frac{{ - 2}}{{3(z - \frac{1}{2})}} \to \frac{{ - 2}}{{3z(1 - \frac{1}{{2z}})}} = \frac{{ - 2}}{{3z}}\left( {\frac{1}{{1 - \frac{1}{{2z}}}}} \right) = \frac{{ - 2}}{{3z}}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{1}{{{2^n}{z^n}}}} ,\forall z/\left| z \right| > \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
c)Since [tex]\sin (u) = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{{{( - 1)}^n}{u^{2n + 1}}}}{{(2n + 1)!}}}[/tex], using the variable change u = 3/z2, [tex]\sin (\frac{3}{{{z^2}}}) = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{{{( - 1)}^n}{3^{2n + 1}}}}{{(2n + 1)!{z^{4n + 2}}}}}[/tex], this for all z except z = 0.
Conclusion: Therefore I have that
[tex]f(z) = 2{z^2}\left( {\frac{{ - 1}}{3}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{{z^n}}}{{{2^n}}} - \frac{2}{{3z}}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{1}{{{2^n}{z^n}}}} } } \right) + \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{{{( - 1)}^n}{3^{2n + 1}}}}{{(2n + 1)!{z^{4n + 2}}}}} ,\forall z/\frac{1}{2} < \left| z \right| < 2[/tex]
Now, I can't find a way to get an unique expression for the series' coefficients an. This is what is troubling me.
I tried it this way: since [tex]\frac{2}{{3z}}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{1}{{{2^n}{z^n}}}} = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{1}{{{{3.2}^{n - 1}}{z^{n + 1}}}}} = \sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {\frac{1}{{{{3.2}^{n - 2}}{z^n}}}} = \sum\limits_{n = - \infty }^{ - 1} {\frac{{{2^{n - 2}}{z^n}}}{3}}[/tex] (is this right?), then, I can add that series with the other one inside the parenthesis, because there's no single power of z in both series that repeats itself (one is a series of only positive powers and 0, the other a series of only negative powers). But then I would have an expression for an for n>0 and another one for n<0. That wouldn't change much after I multiply by 2z2, since it multiplies both series and keeps the fact that they don't have powers of z in common.
As the matter of fact, the expression for an for n<0 will get more complicated after I add the series of the sine function.
What am I missing or doing wrong?
Thanks
