Classification of isolated singularity /Laurent series












0












$begingroup$


I want to find out, what kind of singularties does



$ f(z)= frac{1}{z^3-z^5}$ have.



I would do the following steps:
$ f(z)= frac{1}{z^3-z^5} = frac{1}{z^3(1-z)(1+z)}$ so I have $ z_1=1, z_2=-1 , z_3=0$
I can argue by the limit test, that $ z_i$ are poles.
For example $ lim_{zrightarrow 1} (1-z)f(z)= lim_{zrightarrow 1} frac{1}{z^3(1+z)}= frac{1}{2} ne 0 $



Am I right?



How can I find the Laurent series of f and classify the singularties without using the Limit test.

    That's the point. There is no explicit point or can i take the difference between singularities as radius of convergence? How would you classify the singularities?

You are right: they are all poles.



Now, consider the point $0$. Since$$f(z)=frac1{z^3}timesfrac1{1-z^2}$$and since, near $0$, you have$$frac1{1-z^2}=1+z^2+z^4+z^6+cdots$$then (again, near $0$) you have$$f(z)=frac1{z^3}+frac1z+z+z^3+cdots$$and this confirms that $0$ is a pole.



You can do a similar thing at $pm1$.
