    Summer 2013 Math and Science REU Thread

    Is it time to start really worrying about these yet? I applied to like 10 and only heard back from 1 so far (wait listed at Rutgers since one of my reccomenders didn't get his thing in on time...). Most said on their official websites that first offers go out either the 1st of 11th. Looking...

    How Does the Value of 'a' Affect the Integral on the Unit Circle Using Residues?

    Homework Statement Calculate the integral ∫dθ/(1+acos(θ)) from 0 to 2∏ using residues. Homework Equations Res\underline{zo}(z)=lim\underline{z->zo} (z-z0)f(zo)*2∏i The Attempt at a Solution To start I sub cos(θ)=1/2(e^(iθ)+e^(-iθ)) so that de^(iθ)=ie^(iθ)dθ Re-writing in...
