What type of singularity does $frac{e^{iaz}-e^{-z}}{z}$ have at $z=0$?
$begingroup$
What type of singularity does $frac{e^{iaz}-e^{-z}}{z}$ have at $z=0$? It is not a pole since the numerator is zero when $z=0$. The derivatives of this function always have a $z$ at the denominator, so we can't take the limit as $zto 0$. Is it
a removable singularity or an essential singularity? Why?

Don't think it has a singularity atall, unless I've made a bit of a blunder. It appears to me to have a perfectly welldefined limit at z=0: -1+ia .

This is a removable singularity. This can be seen by the power series representation of this function. Using
$$e^z=sum_{n=0}^inftyfrac{z^n}{n!}$$
we can deduce that
$$frac{e^{iaz}-e^{-z}}{z}=frac{1}{z}sum_{n=0}^inftyfrac{(iaz)^n-(-z)^n}{n!}=sum_{n=0}^inftyfrac{(ia)(iaz)^n+(-z)^n}{(n+1)!}$$
which is a continuous function. Thus, the singularity is removable.
