Fungrim symbol: CurvePath

Symbol: CurvePath —

\left(f(t),\, t : a \rightsquigarrow b\right)

— Path along a curve

►CurvePath(f(t), For(t, a, b)) —

\left(f(t),\, t : a \rightsquigarrow b\right)

— Represents the path traced by

f(t)

t

follows the path

a \rightsquigarrow b

►CurvePath(Mul(R, Exp(Mul(ConstI, t))), For(t, 0, Mul(2, Pi))) —

\left(R {e}^{i t},\, t : 0 \rightsquigarrow 2 \pi\right)

— Represents the circular path counterclockwise around the origin, starting at

R

►CurvePath(Mul(R, Exp(Mul(ConstI, t))), For(t, 0, Neg(Mul(2, Pi)))) —

\left(R {e}^{i t},\, t : 0 \rightsquigarrow -2 \pi\right)

— Represents the circular path clockwise around the origin, starting at

R

►Path(Pos(Infinity), CurvePath(Exp(Mul(ConstI, t)), For(t, Div(Pi, 2), Div(Mul(3, Pi), 2))), Pos(Infinity)) —

+\infty \rightsquigarrow \left({e}^{i t},\, t : \pi / 2 \rightsquigarrow 3 \pi / 2\right) \rightsquigarrow +\infty

— Represents the Hankel contour starting at

+\infty

, moving along a straight line above the real axis to

i

, moving in a half-circle around the origin to

-i

, and returning to

+\infty

along a straight line below the real axis.
