Evaluate the contour integral

594 Views Asked by At

How to evaluate this, $$\oint_{c} \frac{\sin\pi z^2+\cos\pi z^2}{(z-1)(z-2)}dz$$ where $C$ is the circle, $|z|=3$

I tried below things

I believe 1 and 2 are simple poles here and the equation can be reduced to $\frac{1}{z-1}+\frac{1}{z-2}$

How to continue from here? I am a beginner in contour integration, Any hints approach would be good.

Let $\;C_1\,,\,\,C_2\;$ be little circles around $\;1,2\;$ resp. By Cauchy's Theorem:

$$\oint_{C_1}\frac{\sin\pi z^2+\cos\pi z^2}{(z-1)(z-2)}dz=\oint_{C_1}\frac{\frac{\sin\pi z^2+\cos\pi z^2}{z-2}}{z-1}dz=\left.2\pi i\frac{\sin\pi z^2+\cos\pi z^2}{z-2}\right|_{z=1}=$$

$$=-2\pi i \left(0-1\right)=2\pi i $$

Do now something similar with $\;C_2\;$ and check that your integral is the sum of these two integrals.
