The classical residue theorem on a circle #
For f meromorphic on a closed disc C(c, R) (R > 0) whose poles are contained in a finite set
S inside the open disc, the contour integral of f around the boundary circle is 2πi times the
sum of the residues over S:
∮_{C(c,R)} f = 2πi · ∑_{s ∈ S} residue f s.
The hypothesis on S asks only that every pole — every point of negative meromorphic order — lie
in S. S may list further points (zeros, or removable/regular points), whose residues are 0 and
so do not affect the sum. No pointwise regularity of the raw function f is required — f may take
isolated "wrong values" where it disagrees with its meromorphic normal form — since both sides are
stated up to that normal form.
Main results #
TauCeti.Contour.classicalResidueTheorem_circle_of_meromorphicOrderAt_neg— the sharp support form: only the poles (points of negative meromorphic order) need lie inS.TauCeti.Contour.classicalResidueTheorem_circle— the form asking every point of nonzero meromorphic order to lie inS; a direct corollary since residues at non-poles vanish.
This is the special case of the Hungerbühler–Wasem generalized residue theorem (HW Thm 3.3) for a round circle.

The classical residue theorem on a circle (sharp support form). If f is meromorphic on the
closed disc C(c, R) (R > 0) and every pole lies in a finite set S inside the open disc, then
the contour integral of f around the boundary circle is 2πi times the sum of the residues over
S:
∮_{C(c,R)} f = 2πi · ∑_{s ∈ S} residue f s.
S need only contain the poles (the points of negative meromorphic order); residues at points of
nonnegative order vanish, so listing extra points leaves the sum unchanged.

S inside the open disc, then ∮_{C(c,R)} f = 2πi · ∑_{s ∈ S} residue f s. Since residues at
non-poles vanish, classicalResidueTheorem_circle_of_meromorphicOrderAt_neg proves the same
conclusion asking only the poles (points of negative order) to lie in S.
