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.

“It is commonplace that a problem stated is well on its way to solution, for statement of the nature of a problem signifies that the underlying quality is being transformed into determinate distinctions of terms and relations or has become an object of articulate thought.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
“The most distinct and beautiful statement of any truth must take at last the mathematical form.”
