Homework Statement
WTS divergence of:
[tex]\sum_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{1}{z-n}[/tex]
Homework Equations
Basic algebraic manipulation, standard tests of non-convergence?
The Attempt at a Solution
I have been playing with algebra, perhaps this equivilant (I hope equivilant, anyway) series may be of use:
[tex]\frac{1}{z}+\sum_{1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{z-n}+\frac{1}{z+n} = \frac{1}{z}+\sum_{1}^{\infty} \frac{2z}{z^2-n^2}[/tex]
Is this right? If so, what can I do from here? If not, where am I going wrong?
Thanks!
