Fungrim entry: 2be0b5

Symbol: MeromorphicLimit —

\lim_{z \to a} f\!\left(z\right)

— Limiting value, allowing poles

This operator is equivalent to ComplexLimit except that whereas ComplexLimit in general is undefined when

a

is a pole (because the direction of the resulting infinity depends on the direction of approach), MeromorphicLimit is taken to give UnsignedInfinity (

{\tilde \infty}

) when

a

is a pole.

Definitions:
