Jordan's Lemma - Statement

Statement

Consider a complex-valued, continuous function f, defined on a semicircular contour

of radius R > 0 lying in the upper half-plane, centred at the origin. If the function f is of the form

with a parameter a > 0, then Jordan's lemma states the following upper bound for the contour integral:

An analogous statement for a semicircular contour in the lower half-plane holds when a < 0.

Famous quotes containing the word statement:

    He that writes to himself writes to an eternal public. That statement only is fit to be made public, which you have come at in attempting to satisfy your own curiosity.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Most personal correspondence of today consists of letters the first half of which are given over to an indexed statement of why the writer hasn’t written before, followed by one paragraph of small talk, with the remainder devoted to reasons why it is imperative that the letter be brought to a close.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    Eroticism has its own moral justification because it says that pleasure is enough for me; it is a statement of the individual’s sovereignty.
    Mario Vargas Llosa (b. 1936)
