The removable singularities at zero are understood inThese are entire functions, with values and . On the real axis their difference is , including its continuous value at zero. In the complex upper half-plane, , so away from zero; the analogous bound for holds in the lower half-plane. This verifies analyticity, the required jump and the specified decay.
In the Sokhotski–Plemelj formula, the boundary values may also be writtenIndeed the Cauchy principal value of is : split , translate the first integral, and use and the oddness of . The limiting formula at zero follows continuously.
