I would like to show that ∫∞−∞f(x)dx=0 where f(x)=p(x)q(x) and deg(p)=deg(q)−1. Also, q(x) has no real roots. I was considering integrating along the contour CR, where CR is the real line segment from −R to R and the upper semi circle, in which case
limR→∞∫CRf(z)dz=limR→∞∫R−Rf(x)dx+∫ΓRf(z)dz=2πi∑kRes(f,zk)
where zk are the zeroes of q(x) in the upper half plane, and ΓR is the upper semicircle. However, I'm not sure where to proceed from here
Any help would be appreciated.
