SUMMARY

The discussion centers on proving that the zeros and poles of a meromorphic function do not have limit points. The proof demonstrates that if the set of poles has a limit point, it leads to a contradiction regarding the analyticity of the function in a neighborhood around that point. The argument relies on the definition of isolated points and the behavior of meromorphic functions near their poles. Additionally, the discussion references the property that zeros of analytic functions are also isolated.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of meromorphic functions
  • Knowledge of isolated points in complex analysis
  • Familiarity with the concept of analyticity
  • Basic grasp of limits and continuity in complex functions
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the properties of meromorphic functions in detail
  • Learn about the implications of isolated singularities in complex analysis
  • Explore the concept of zeros of analytic functions and their isolation
  • Investigate the relationship between poles and the behavior of functions in their vicinity
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, particularly those specializing in complex analysis, students studying meromorphic functions, and anyone interested in the properties of analytic functions and their singularities.

Prove that the zeros and the poles of a meromorphic function dose not have a limit point

Solution:
Let P be the set of the poles of f suppose that it has a limit point.
p is a pole of f so it is an isolated point such that \lim_{z \rightarrow p} \mid f(z) \mid= \infty
from isolated point definition there exist an R>0 such that f is analytic at the set B={z : 0<|z-p|<R }
but B is open and p in B, and B intersect U\{p} is not phi so f is not analytic at B
Contradiction

what about the set of zeros, and is my proof right ?
