Complex analysis problem. Help needed

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

Prove that the function f(z)=1/z^2 is not uniformly continuous in the region |z|<=1 but it is uniformly continuous in the region 1/2 <=|z|<=1.

OpenStudy (jack1):

impossible to divide by zero... so when z = 0 f(z)=1/z^2 f(0)=1/0^2 f(z)=1/0 f(z)=infinity / not rational

OpenStudy (jack1):

does that make sense?

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

@Jack1 we cannot put z=0 and do the problem. We need to show it by \[\epsilon- \delta\] process

I think that the subsequent inequalities, can be useful: \[ \left| {\frac{1}{{{z^2}}} - \frac{1}{{z_0^2}}} \right| = \frac{{\left| {z_0^2 - {z^2}} \right|}}{{\left| {{z^2}z_0^2} \right|}} \leqslant \frac{{\left| {z_0^2 - {z^2}} \right|}}{{2\left| {z_0^2} \right|}} \leqslant \frac{{2\left| {z - {z_0}} \right|\left| {z + {z_0}} \right|}}{{2\left| {z_0^2} \right|}} \leqslant \frac{\delta }{{2\left| {{z_0}} \right|}} \leqslant \varepsilon \] Of course the absolute values symbol \(|.|\) stands for the distance in \(\mathbb{C}\)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops.. absolute value* symbol...
