Classifying the singularities of a function

I'm trying to classify the singular points of the following function but I'm having some troubles. $$f(z) = \frac{z(z-1)^{1/3}\sin(1/z)}{(z^2+1)^3\sin(z)}$$ This is what I have so far: $z=i, z=-i$ ...

Determining nature of complex singularities using Taylor and Laurent series

I'm facing the following function: $$f(z) = \frac{z}{\sin z}$$ I know there are singularities at $z_k=k\pi$ with $k \in \mathbb{Z}$. Using the basical properties of the $\sin(z)$ function, I found: $$\...

How to prove or disprove a point is a singularity of an analytic function defined by a power series?

My question is: in general, how we can prove or disprove that a point is an singular point of a analytic function defined by a power series? Since for a point on the circle of convergence of a power ...

Questions concerning analytic and singularities of power series

In the book 'The Concrete Tetrahedron' by Manuel Kauers and Peter Paule on p30 reads or implies the function $$f: C\backslash \{ ... ,-2\pi,-\pi,0,\pi,2\pi, ...\}\rightarrow C,\, f(z)=\frac z{\sin(z)}$...

If $f$ is entire and monotone on $\mathbb{R}$, then it's a polynomial or $f(1/z)$ has an essential singularity

In the answer to this post, the following fact seems implicitly used: Suppose $f: \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}$ is entire. Further, suppose $f$ is a bijection $\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ and $z$ is real ...

Little question about holomorphic function.

I am working on a task where the following is given: Let $r > 0$ and $f$ a holomorphic function on $U=B_r(a)$ so that $f(a)=0$ but $f'(a)\neq 0$. The Solution claims the existence of a holomorphic ...

Retrieving a singular pole from the quotient of the coefficients of the power series [duplicate]

I want to show the following statement: Let $f$ be a meromorphic function on $\mathbb{C}$ with one and only one pole at $z_0\neq 0$. This pole can have any order $k>0$, but has to be the only pole ...

Series expansion of $\dfrac{z^2}{1+z^2}$

Consider the complex function $$f(z) = \dfrac{z^2}{1+z^2}$$ It has two isolated singularities at $z=\pm i$. So when we consider the series expansion at $z_0 = 0$, then the radius of convergence is $...

Power series representation of $\frac{1}{1-e^z}$ to classify singularity.

I want to classify the singularity of $\frac{1}{1-e^z}$ at $0$. With a "direct" power series expansion, I got $$\frac{1}{-\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{z^k}{k!}}$$ This looks like an essential ...

Prove that $z=0$ is an essential singularity of $g(z)=e^{\frac{1}{z}}f(z)$ when $f(z)$ is analytic on $z=0$

Let $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ be an analytic function on $z=0$ and let $g:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ such that $g(z)=e^{\frac{1}{z}}f(z)$. Given $f(z)\not\equiv0$, prove that $z=0$ is an essential ...

Singularity of $\sum a_n z^n$ at $z=R$

This is a theorem in the Bak-Newman book of Complez analysis. It is stated: Theorem 1: If $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nz^n$ has radius of convergence $R<\infty$ and, for every $n$, $a_n$ is real and $\...

Does $\lim\limits_{z \to 0}\frac{e^{z^{-1}}}{\sin(z^{-1})}$ exist or not?

I used limit of the function at zero, and got that the limit is zero. So I said, while the limit existed and it is finite then the singularity is Removable Singularity. My function is $$f(z)=\frac{e^{...

Power series of a complex function about a removable singularity

Compute the first three terms in the power series of $f$ at 0. $$ f(z) = \frac{1-cos(z)}{sin(z^2)} $$ How should I do this since the function is undefined at $f(0)$? I've seen some similar power ...

Series representation and isolated singularity

I am currently doing the following problem :--- Let $f$ be holomorphic on $\{z\in \Bbb C:|z|<2,z\not=1\}$. Let $f$ has an representation of the form $f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nz^n,|z|<1$...

Condition for the power series to have a single singularity on its circle of convergence

I'm looking to the prove of the following statement: If for the complex power series $\sum^\infty_{i=1} a_i z^i$ it holds that $$ \limsup_{n \to \infty} \sqrt[n]{\left| \frac{a_n}{a_{n+1}} -z_0 \...
