Singularities/Residues/Applications 733
- c;t; is the positively oriented boundary of the rectangle with vertices
at (b + m, -m), (b + m, m), (-b - m, m), and (-b - m, -m), where
b ;::: 0, b =/:-Re a, and m is a positive integer (Fig 9.31 ).
4. lf(z)I < K (a constant) for z E c;t; as m --+ 00
- Sm = sum of the residues or f(z)g(z) at the singularities or g(z)
enclosed by c;t;.
Then
S = - L ,Bng( a + n)
where S = limm-+oo Sm, and the summation on the right contains only
terms corresponding to those values of n for which f has a pole and g is
analytic.
Proof The residue theorem gives

the first sum on the right extending over those poles of f enclosed by c;t;
where g is analytic. In view of assumption 2, given any E > 0, there is
M > 0 such that lzl > M implies that lzg(z)I < E. Also, for z E C;t; we
have lzl ;::: m and L(C;t;) =Sm+ 2b. Hence
