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.
