I need to find the first three terms of this series.
Am I correct in saying z^i = exp(i*Log(z)), then using the taylor series for e^z, giving me:
(i*Log(z)) - 1/2*(Log(z))^2 - i/6*(Log(z))^3 + 1/24*(Log(z))^4 + ...
I haven't worked it out, but this seems to mean that the coefficients for every term in the Taylor series for z^i is actually an infinite series, found by combining terms in the Log(z) Taylor series.
This seems like I could be way off though, so I don't want to do the calculations if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance.
