Homework Statement



f(z)=cot(pi*z)/(z^2+1)

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


now I want to get the residue at z=i, I know the definition of f(z)'s residue form
but when I try to get the expansion of cot(pi*z) at z=i, I used a lot of method
like use sin*csc this form but due to the reason I cannot get the expansion of csc(A+B)
i CANNOT get the result

Could you tell me the formula of csc(A+B) or other more easier method to figure this problem? thanks

cot = cotangent = cos / sin. I don't know why you are using csc = cosecant = 1 / sin

cause i need to get the multiplication of two polynomial not division

You don't have to expand cot(pi*z) at z=i. cot(pi*z) is analytic at z=i, it has a perfectly well defined limit there. The singularity is only in the denominator.

I got it... thanks so much
 
Hello everyone, I’m considering a point charge q that oscillates harmonically about the origin along the z-axis, e.g. $$z_{q}(t)= A\sin(wt)$$ In a strongly simplified / quasi-instantaneous approximation I ignore retardation and take the electric field at the position ##r=(x,y,z)## simply to be the “Coulomb field at the charge’s instantaneous position”: $$E(r,t)=\frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\frac{r-r_{q}(t)}{||r-r_{q}(t)||^{3}}$$ with $$r_{q}(t)=(0,0,z_{q}(t))$$ (I’m aware this isn’t...
Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
