The value of the integral 12πj∮Cz2+1z2−1dz where z is a complex number and C is a unit circle with center at 1+0j in the complex plane is
Given:
12πj∮z2+1z2−1dz=12πj∮z2+1(z−1)(z+1)dz
Poles are z=1,−1 (Both simple)
Given C is (x−1)2+y2=1⇒C;|z−1|=1
Clearly 1 lies inside of C and −1 outside C . Then Res f(z) (at z=1)
limZ→1(z−1)z2+1(z−1)(z+1)
limZ→1(z2+1z+1)=1
∴ By Cauchys Residue theorem
12πj∮z2+1z2−1dz=12πj×2πj×1=1
