Laurent Series Expansions Explained with Example Questions
Questions which directly ask Laurent Series expansions are not that common, but they do come up occasionally - as such it is well worth getting to grips with them. In this video we examine three questions which ask for Laurent Series expansions about five regions, giving a good overview of the questions one might expect and how to deal with them.
Important Note: At 20:38 the author incorrectly writes "2(n+1)" instead of "2n+3".

A Familiar Looking Integral made Much Harder with Complex Coefficients
Переглядів 8457 годин тому
In this video we tackle a familiar looking integral, but made much more difficult because we are dealing with complex variables and complex coefficients rather than their real counterparts. The method to solve is similar to that with real variables and coefficients, but every step (except bizarrely the final integral) is more difficult. Having said that, with care not to make mistakes, the inte...
Quick Method to Find Interval of Convergence of Taylor Series Expansion of a/(bx+c) about a Point
Переглядів 84812 годин тому
In a time constrained situation such as an exam, any seconds gained are valuable and the method explained in this video allows the solving of the question on the thumbnail in a few seconds (as opposed to a few minutes by more traditional methods). First we show the method, then we show the more traditional method (Taylor series expansion and the ratio test) and finally we explain why the quick ...
Two Correct (and One Incorrect) Methods to Find this Limit

This is a very common limit question which can be answered in a relatively straightforward manner using Taylor expansion or L'Hopital - however there is a third (incorrect) way which some students attempt, which involves adding and subtracting infinity (which clearly cannot be done) For more videos on limits see our playlist 'Limits' ua-cam.com/play/PLlX3COjsHPVDc_qtVRdkPjEmNVMx2abvo.html For m...

      Well for example the first term 4^(3^2) just means raise 4 to the power of 3^2 (which is 9) - ie 4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4 etc - its a teaser testing knowledge of exponent rules - hope this helps

    How to solve it with more "pure mathematical" methods?

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 11 днів тому

      Great question - there is a way to solve mathematically using addition mod 90 (with adjustments) and then subtraction mod 9 (with adjustments) - but it is a bit ugly. Of course if the number wheel had a zero as well then mod 100 and mod 10 would make a quite neat formula.

    This can all be resolved by substituting sin x for x and you get lim x-> inf of 1/x^2 which is infinity

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 12 днів тому

      yes - but the 'go to' method for most people is L'Hopital (for good reason as it often gets the correct limit quickly) - but it has to be applied correctly (ie indeterminate at every step where it is used).

  • @mreathaoof588
    @mreathaoof588 13 днів тому

    Another way you could do it, I believe, is by changing it into the form "(1/x^2)*(sin(x)/x)". If we were to take the limit as x approaches 0, we would get (1/0^2)*1 (because of the lim x->0 sin(x)/x=1), which is another way to get the answer of infinity.

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 13 днів тому

      Yes agree (I presume you meant to type 'because of the lim x->0 sin(x)/x=1')

  •  13 днів тому

    you could reach the same result by observing that 1/0 approaches +infinity after initially applying l'hopital's rule. in this particular case, there's no need to use Taylor expansions.

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 13 днів тому

      Correct and good point, thanks for sharing. Though the main point of the video is that it is an easy trap to fall into NOT checking whether the expression is still indeterminate and therefore eligible for l'Hopital at EVERY step of the calculation. Many students just check the expression is indeterminate at step one and therefore assume L'Hopital can be applied at all steps until there is a limit which can be evaluated.

  • @iwonder2218

    You incorrectly applied l'hospitals the second time because the expression was 1/0 at that point. This accounts for the discrepancy in your results.

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 14 днів тому

      Correct - as I say in the video at 3:20

    • @almightysapling
      @almightysapling 12 днів тому

      Okay but I didn't even get to 3:20 cuz I looked at the thumbnail and said "no, Lhopitals does not get you -1/6 it gets you infinity". It's not an issue of approach.

    • @grestyacademy
      @grestyacademy 12 днів тому

      agree - but it's a trap a lot of people fall into (clearly not you)...hence the video to remind students they must check the form is still indeterminate at every step and not just focus on the x^3 on the bottom and immediately apply L'Hopital three times because it can be applied at step one
