Consider the following statements about contour integration. 1. Cauchy's theorem needs analyticity inside as well as on the contour   2. A vanishing contour integral proves the integrand analytic inside   3. The residue theorem reduces to Cauchy's theorem when no singularity is enclosed

  • A.2 and 3 only are correct
  • B.1, 2 and 3 are all correct
  • C.1 and 3 only are correct
  • D.1 and 2 only are correct

Answer: C

The first and third hold. The second reverses the implication: the integral of \( 1/(z^{2}-1) \) round \( |z| = 2 \) vanishes although two poles lie inside, the residues merely cancelling. A vanishing integral is therefore evidence of nothing on its own
