The function is

f(x)= (x^n - x^{-n} ) / ( x - x^{-1} )

Can we use L'Hopital rule if n is a complex eigenvalue ?

Answer #1

Yes. it can be used. L' Hospital rule works locally. That means you check limits in a neighborhood of the point. For details you can check https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/602650/is-lhopitals-rule-applicable-to-complex-functions.

Here is the solution anyway.

Recall that the command diff(f(x),x) symbolically finds the derivative of the function f. Recall also that the derivative is itself a function which can also be differentiated, giving us the second derivative of f, and so on. MATLAB will easily compute higher order derivatives using the command diff(f(x),x,n) Where n represents which derivative you want. Later, it will be very useful to find patterns in higher order derivatives. Ordinarily, this is most easily done by NOT simplifying the resulting expression,...
