A removable singularity is a type of singularity in complex analysis where a function behaves like it can be defined at that point. Specifically, if a function has a singularity at a point, and if the limit of the function exists as the point is approached, then that singularity can be 'removed' by appropriately defining the function at that point. This concept plays a crucial role in series expansions and residue theory, as it allows for functions to be treated as holomorphic across their domain, enabling easier calculations of integrals and series.
congrats on reading the definition of removable singularity. now let's actually learn it.
