Taylor series for cos[1/(1-z^2)]

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on deriving the Taylor series for the function cos(1/(1-z^2)). Participants confirm that it is possible to substitute the Taylor series of 1/(1-z^2) into the Taylor series of cos(z), although the process can be tedious. The challenge lies in ensuring the accuracy of the substitution and managing the complexity of the resulting series. This method is valid and can yield correct results when executed carefully.

Bit stuck on this. I tried writing 1/(1-z^2) as taylor series then Cos z as taylor series, then substituting one into the other but it looked a bit dodgy. Can one simple substitute like this?

Yes, you can, though it tends to be tedious to work out.
