Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Hi;
I am not getting that, let me check my notes.
The Laurent series are generated from the Taylor series with a substitution thrown in. Maybe we should do one that has a real pole first.

I looked up a handout, apparently you just take the reciprocal of z^n and sum it...

Google "calculating laurent series" and click on the first link, titled "[PDF] 1 What is a Laurent series? 2 Calculating the Laurent series..."

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
I see your problem there but how is that answer the Laurent series. It has no principal part!

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Yes, that one has negative powers of z.
Do you know anything about the contours themselves? I've heard of a few methods, like the "keyhole" method, or drawing squares or rectangles instead of curves...

A couple of hopefully not too difficult ones. They were easier back when I did them, now they might be impossible.

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Would it be appropriate to use partial fractions with imaginary co-efficients here, to generate the Laurent series?
My chosen contour would be the upper half of the plane (a semi-circle from negative infinity to positive infinity), since it encloses the real integral...
I think I can generate the partial fractions but it gets messy. Maybe the method of residues is not the way to go.

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Hi;
Let's see what we can do first with the residues.
The poles are
Since we are going from 0 to ∞ we only take the second and fourth poles. Are we okay up to here?

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Using Cauchy's integral formula I got the wrong answer... I said
Let the contour enclose the part of the plane from 0 to infinity, so only sqrt(i) is the pole included in the contour, right?
Then Cauchy's integral formula says:
Letting n = 1, a = sqrt(i) gives me:
evaluated at z = sqrt(i) gives me an answer of pi/2... but the correct answer is
I am stuck.

Sorry, just saw your post. Okay that makes sense, we use those two poles since they are in our region of interest (the real integral doesn't exist below the axis, where the other poles are).

Post #9394, there are two poles. The positive ones count.

Re: Linear Interpolation FP1 Formula
Okay, so that means we are taking two contours?
I just tried with Cauchy's integral formula and I am getting a division by zero...
