For a positively oriented simple closed piecewise smooth curve, a point inside it and a function holomorphic on a neighborhood of the curve and its interior, Cauchy's differentiated integral formula isThe printed denominator uses while the derivative and factorial use . The standard formula requires these indices to agree; the intended exponent in this display is . The private transcription preserves the mismatch exactly.
For the following task, write near zero with . Thus extends holomorphically at zero, and is holomorphic inside the specified contour because has no other zeros there. Now . Apply the correctly indexed formula with derivative order to getPositive winding one supplies the orientation and multiplicity used in this expression.
