  Laurent series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Laurent series with complex coefficients are an important tool in complex analysis, especially to investigate the behavior of functions near singularities.
of the Laurent expansion of such a function is called the residue of f(z) at the singularity c; it plays a prominent role in the residue theorem.
Two such formal Laurent series may be added by adding the coefficients, and because of the finiteness of the negative-degree coefficients, they may also be multiplied using convolution of the coefficient sequences.

Laurent series with complex coefficients are an tool in complex analysis especially to investigate the behavior of near singularities.
More generally Laurent series can be used express holomorphic functions defined on an annulus much as power series are used to express holomorphic functions on a disc.

In mathematics, a Laurent series is an infinite series.
The coefficients of the Laurent series can be determined with an integral formula which generalizes Cauchy's integral formula:

 [No title]
This kind of logarithmic expansions for solutions of systems of ordinary differential equations were called psi-series by Hille (see, for instance, {[Hil76]}), although they had already been studied in the beginning of the century in systems of the form $t \d x/\d t=f(t,x)$ by Horn~{[Hor96]}.
The convergence region of the expansions of the singularities of b) type is a Riemann surface with a finite number of sheets whereas the expansions of the singularities of c) type is a Riemann surface with an infinite number of sheets.
We note that the expansion of $x(t)$ begins with a term of ``$\log\tau$'' type instead of a term of pole type, and therefore it is very difficult to find such singularities with the standard methods.

Laurent series of a function about one of its poles.
That's the Laurent expansion of f about the pole z=1.
The so-called "residue" of f for the pole z=1 is the coefficient of 1/h in the Laurent expansion (here, that's -1); that's the only thing that comes into play when integrating over a closed contour.

However, if the expansion point is a branch point, then the returned expansion may not approximate the function f for values of x close to the branch cut.
In this case, the expansion is not a proper Puiseux series in the mathematical sense.
The second argument is the series variable; the expansion point is always the origin 0; other expansion points are internally moved to the origin by a change of variables.

 Singular invariant hyperfunctions on the square matrix space and the alternating matrix space, Masakazu Muro
By expanding the complex powers of the determinant function or the Pfaffian function into the Laurent series with respect to the complex parameter, we can construct singular invariant hyperfunctions as their Laurent expansion coefficients.
The author presents here the exact orders of the poles of the complex powers and determines the exact supports of the Laurent expansion coefficients.
By applying these results, we prove that every quasi-relatively invariant hyperfunction can be expressed as a linear combination of the Laurent expansion coefficients of the complex powers and that every singular quasi-relatively invariant hyperfunction is in fact relatively invariant on the generic points of its support.
