Convergence of a complex series to a function with double poles on positive integers












0












$begingroup$


Prove that the series $sum_{z=1}^{infty} frac {1}{(z-n)^2}$ converges on the complex plane minus the positive integers to an analytic function with a double pole at each positive integer.



Now by limit comparison test with $frac {1}{n^2}$ we know that the series is absolutely convergent except at positive integers where it is not defined. More specifically, I am using that $$lim_{n to infty} frac{|frac {1}{(z-n)^2} |}{|frac{1}{n^2}|} = 1$$ I am not sure how to proceed from here.

Hints:



1) Prove that $sumlimits_{n=1}^infty dfrac{1}{(z-n)^2}$ is well defined, ie, that defines a function $f(z)$ for all $zinmathbb{C}-mathbb{N}$



2)Note that, for each $minmathbb{N}$, $$sumlimits_{n=1}^infty dfrac{1}{(z-n)^2}=dfrac{1}{(z-m)^2}+underbrace{sumlimits_{n=1,nneq m}^infty dfrac{1}{(z-n)^2}}_{text{holomorphic in }V_m}$$ where $V_m$ is a neighborhood of $m$ (so that m is the only singularity there).



3) Remember the definition of pole

In addition to what Martin Vacas Vignolo has suggested here is the argument needed to prove that series converges to an analytic function in $mathbb C setminus mathbb N$: if $K subset mathbb C setminus mathbb N$ is compact then $|(z-n)^{2}|geq (n -|z|)^{2}$. Use the fact that $K$ is bounded and ignore the first few terms to conclude that the series converges uniformly on $K$. This proves that $sum frac 1 {(z-n)^{2}}$ is analytic in $mathbb C setminus mathbb N$.

In addition to what Martin Vacas Vignolo has suggested here is the argument needed to prove that series converges to an analytic function in $mathbb C setminus mathbb N$: if $K subset mathbb C setminus mathbb N$ is compact then $|(z-n)^{2}|geq (n -|z|)^{2}$. Use the fact that $K$ is bounded and ignore the first few terms to conclude that the series converges uniformly on $K$. This proves that $sum frac 1 {(z-n)^{2}}$ is analytic in $mathbb C setminus mathbb N$.
