Apr 22, 2010 at 17:39 | comment | added | Robin Chapman | Each $f(t_j)/t_j^n$ is real. As $j\to\infty$, $t_j\to0$ and so $f(t_j)/t_j^n\to a_n$. As the limit of a sequence of real numbers, $a_n$ is real. | |
Apr 22, 2010 at 17:18 | comment | added | Henry Yuen | I follow everything, except for the base step to establish $a_n\in\mathbb{R}$. I presume that it's because $f(z)/z^n$ has an accumulation of real values on values from the $[0,1]$ interval, and since the image of $[0,1]$ contains the accumulation point, $f(0)/0^n = a_n$ must be real valued as well. | |
