The principal part of a meromorphic germ #
Let ๐ be a nontrivially normed field and a : ๐. A meromorphic germ ฯ at a splits uniquely
as ฯ = P((z - a)โปยน) + g, where P is a polynomial without constant term and g is the germ of a
function analytic at a. The polynomial P is the principal part
TauCeti.meromorphicGerms.principalPart ฯ; writing P = ฮฃ_{k โฅ 1} P_k X ^ k, the germ ฯ has the
finite principal part ฮฃ_k P_k (z - a) ^ (-k) and a regular remainder.
Concretely, if ฯ is represented by (z - a)โปแดบ h z with h analytic at a, Taylor's formula
with divided-difference remainder TauCeti.sum_add_pow_sub_smul_iterate_dslope splits
h z = ฮฃ_{j<N} c_j (z - a) ^ j + (z - a) ^ N q z, where c_j are the Taylor coefficients of h at
a and q = (swap dslope a)^[N] h is analytic at a. Dividing by (z - a) ^ N gives the
principal part ฮฃ_{j<N} c_j X ^ (N - j) and the regular remainder q
(TauCeti.meromorphicGerms.principalPart_eq_sum_coeff and
TauCeti.meromorphicGerms.coe_sub_evalInvSub_principalPart).
Uniqueness rests on the order computation TauCeti.meromorphicOrderAt_eval_inv_sub: a nonzero
polynomial P in (z - a)โปยน has order -P.natDegree at a, so when P has no constant term it
has a pole at a and is not the germ of an analytic function. Hence the principal part depends
only on the germ, not on the exponent N, the representative or the neighbourhood used to compute
it, and it is linear over ๐.
Over โ the regular remainder is a germ of the holomorphic structure sheaf; that version of the
splitting is TauCeti.holomorphicStructureSheaf.regularPart in
TauCeti.Geometry.Manifold.Complex.StructureSheaf.MeromorphicGerm.

Polynomials in the inverse coordinate #
A polynomial in the inverse coordinate (z - a)โปยน is meromorphic at a.
A nonzero polynomial P in the inverse coordinate has order -P.natDegree at a: off a it
is (z - a) ^ (-P.natDegree) times the reversed polynomial P.reverse evaluated at z - a, whose
value at a is the leading coefficient of P.
A polynomial without constant term in the inverse coordinate (z - a)โปยน agrees with a function
analytic at a on a punctured neighbourhood of a only if it is zero: otherwise it has a pole at
a.
Principal part splitting of (z - a)โปแดบ h. For every function h and every N, off a,
(z - a)โปแดบ h z = P((z - a)โปยน) + q z with P = ฮฃ_{j<N} c_j X ^ (N - j), where
c_j = (swap dslope a)^[j] h a and q = (swap dslope a)^[N] h.
Evaluation at the inverse coordinate #
Evaluation at the inverse coordinate: the polynomial P gives the meromorphic germ of
z โฆ P((z - a)โปยน) at a.
Instances For
Distinct polynomials in the inverse coordinate have distinct germs at a.
The principal part #
The principal part of a meromorphic germ ฯ at a: the unique polynomial P without
constant term such that ฯ - P((z - a)โปยน) is the germ of a function analytic at a. It is
linear over ๐.
Instances For
The principal part has no constant term.
Subtracting its principal part from a meromorphic germ leaves the germ of an analytic function.
Characterization of the principal part. principalPart ฯ = P exactly when P has no
constant term and ฯ - P((z - a)โปยน) is the germ of a function analytic at a.
The principal part of a polynomial in the inverse coordinate is the polynomial with its constant term removed.
A polynomial without constant term in the inverse coordinate is its own principal part.
The principal part of a meromorphic germ vanishes exactly when the germ is that of a function
analytic at a.
The principal part of the germ of a function meromorphic at a vanishes exactly when the
function has nonnegative order at a.
A pole bound bounds the degree of the principal part. The constant term of the principal part is zero, so a removable singularity contributes the zero polynomial.
The principal part through Taylor coefficients. If ฯ is the germ of (z - a)โปแดบ h z,
where h has the power series p at a, then the principal part of ฯ is
ฮฃ_{j<N} p.coeff j โข X ^ (N - j): the Taylor coefficients of h of degree below N.
The regular remainder through divided differences. If ฯ is the germ of (z - a)โปแดบ h z
with h analytic at a, then ฯ minus its principal part is the germ of the analytic function
(swap dslope a)^[N] h, the remainder in Taylor's formula
h z = ฮฃ_{j<N} c_j (z - a) ^ j + (z - a) ^ N (swap dslope a)^[N] h z.
