integration - Evaluating intgammafraczcosh(z)1dz




Evaluate γzcosh(z)1dz where γ is the positively oriented boundary of {x+iyC:y2<(4π21)(1x2)}.





I just learned the residue theorem, so I assume I have to apply that here.
My trouble is that the integrad h(z)=zcosh(z)1 has infinitely many isolated singularities, namely {2πin:nZ}. I also have no intuition for the path γ.



I'm thankful for any help.


Answer



We can rewrite the domain in more familiar form,



{x+iyC:(4π21)x2+y2<4π21}={x+iyC:x2+(y4π21)2<1}.



In that form, it is not too difficult to see what the domain is, and hence what γ is. Then you just need to find the singularities of zcoshz1 in the domain.
