Radius of Convergence Exercise Suppose $f(z)= \frac{\sin(z)}{z^2 +64}.$ I want to argue that the radius of convergence of the power series expansion of  $f$ at $z=6$ is $10.$ Since the function $f$ is holomorphic inside the open ball $\mathbb{B}(6, 10$) ( Open ball centered at 6 with radius 8), the function must be analytic on this region. Moreover, $10$ is the largest possible radius of such balls centered at $z=6.$ Is this argument correct? Thank you.
 A: $f$ is analytic except for poles at $\pm8i$. Since $|6\pm8i|=10$, this shows that $f$ is analytic in $B(6,10)$ but not in $B(6,r)$ for $r>10$; hence the radius of convergence of the power series is $10$.
A: Your approach is correct. Another reasoning is that the power series of $\frac{\sin z}{z^2+64}$ converges at a neighborhood of $z=z_0$ if the power series of $\sin z$, $\frac{1}{z+8i}$ and $\frac{1}{z-8i}$ converge at that neighborhood. Since the radius of convergence of $\sin z$ is $\infty$ at any $z=z_0$, we only investigate $\frac{1}{z+8i}$ and $\frac{1}{z-8i}$. Note that
$$
{\frac{1}{z+8i}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{(6+8i)^n}(z-6)^n
\\
\frac{1}{z-8i}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{(6-8i)^n}(z-6)^n.
}
$$
Since the radius of convergence of both the above series is $10$ and $\frac{\sin z}{z^2+64}$ diverges for $|z-6|=10+\epsilon$ for some arbitrarily small value of $\epsilon$ due to the divergence of $\frac{1}{z-8i}$ and $\frac{1}{z+8i}$, then so is our total radius of convergence.
