Find the complex integral












0














I have
$$int_{gamma} {frac{z}{overline z}}dz$$
where $gamma$ is the edge of ${1 < |z| < 2 $and $Im (z) > 0}$.



I think the way to solve this is to calculate the integral for $|z|=1$ and then $|z|=2$, then subtract the first result from the second one.



For $|z|=1$, the integral is $ipi$. For $|z|=1$, the integral is $4i$. So my answer is $4i-ipi$. But the answer in book is ${frac{4}{3}}$

Actually, in the upper semi-circle $lvert zrvert=1$, you have$$frac z{overline z}=frac{z^2}{lvert zrvert^2}=z^2$$and therefore the integral (if you move along the semi-circle from the left to the right) is equal to $dfrac23$. By the same argument, the integral along the larger semicircle (this time moving from the right to left) is $-dfrac43$.



Can you take it from here?

  • I used the fact that a primitive of $z^2$ is $frac{z^3}3$. So, the first of those integrals is $frac{1^3}3-frac{(-1)^3}3=frac23$. The other one is similar.

  • For |z|=2, I get $$int {frac{z}{overline z}}dz = int {frac{z^2}{|z|^2}} = int {frac{z^2}{4}} = {frac{z^3}{3}} times {frac{1}{4}} = {frac{1}{12}}(8+8) = {frac{16}{12}} = {frac{4}{3}}$$ which looks like the final answer.
