+ | We can now calculate the integral by computing the residues and summing those on the upper half-plane (times $2i\pi$): | ||
+ | |||
+ | \begin{multline} | ||
+ | \mathrm{Res}_{k=1}\frac{1}{(z-e^{i\pi/3})(z-e^{i2\pi/3})(z-e^{-i\pi/3})(z-e^{-i2\pi/3})} | ||
+ | =\\ | ||
+ | \frac{1}{(e^{i\pi/3}-e^{i2\pi/3})(e^{i\pi/3}-e^{-i\pi/3})(e^{i\pi/3}-e^{-i2\pi/3})}\,. | ||
+ | \end{multline} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The denominator is calculated easily by dealing with the geometry of | ||
+ | the unit circle (one is a sine, the other is after computing a | ||
+ | product, the translated sum of a number with its opposite). One thus | ||
+ | finds the residue: | ||
+ | |||
+ | $$1/(2i\sqrt{3}e^{i\pi/3})$$ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The other residue is found similarly as | ||
+ | |||
+ | $$1/(2i\sqrt{3}e^{-i\pi/3})$$ | ||
+ | |||
+ | so that the integral is finally, since $1/e^{-i\pi/3}+1/e^{i\pi/3}=e^{-i\pi/3}+e^{i\pi/3}=1$, simply: | ||
+ | |||
+ | $$\frac{\pi}{\sqrt3}$$ | ||
