A function \phi(z)\, is zero when z = 0\,, and is real when x\, is real, and is analytic when |z| \leq 1\,. If f(x, y)\, is the imaginary part of \phi(x + iy)\, prove that \int_0^{2\pi} \frac{x\sin\theta}{1 - 2x\cos\theta + x^2}f(\cos\theta, \sin\theta)\ d\theta = \pi\phi(x) holds when -1 < x < 1\,.

Parametrizing with z = e^{i\theta}\,, the function \phi(z) = u(\cos\theta, \sin\theta) + if(\cos\theta, \sin\theta)\,. Consider


	\int_{\Gamma} \frac{x\left(z - \frac{1}{z}\right)\frac{1}{2i}}{1 - 2x\left(z + \frac{1}{z}\right)\frac{1}{2} + x^2}\phi(z)\ \frac{dz}{iz}

on the unit circle. Then

= \frac{1}{2}\int_\Gamma \frac{x\left(z - \frac{1}{z}\right)}{1 - x\left(z + \frac{1}{z}\right) + x^2}\phi(z)\ \frac{dz}{-z}
= \frac{1}{2}\int_\Gamma \frac{x\left(z - \frac{1}{z}\right)}{(x - z)\left(x - \frac{1}{z}\right)}\phi(z)\ \frac{dz}{-z}
= \frac{1}{2}\int_\Gamma \frac{x\left(z - \frac{1}{z}\right)}{(z - x)(xz - 1)}\phi(z)\ dz
= \frac{1}{2}\int_\Gamma \frac{x(z^2 - 1)}{z(z - x)(xz - 1)}\phi(z)\ dz

So the poles are at z = 0\, and z = x\,, since -1 < x < 1\,, and the other singularity 1/x\, is outside the unit circle. Thus

= \frac{1}{2}\left(2\pi i \left[\left(\mathrm{Residue\ at\ } z = 0\right) + \left(\mathrm{Residue\ at\ } z = x\right)\right]\right)
= \pi i \left[\left(\lim_{z\to 0} \frac{x(z^2 - 1)}{(z - x)(xz - 1)}\phi(z)\right) + \left(\lim_{z\to x} \frac{x(z^2 - 1)}{z(xz - 1)}\phi(z)\right)\right]
= \pi i \left[\left(\frac{x(-1)}{(-x)(-1)}\phi(0)\right) + \left(\frac{x(x^2 - 1)}{x(xx - 1)}\phi(x)\right)\right]
= \pi i \left[0 + 1\phi(x)\right]
= \pi i\phi(x)\,

Thus

i\pi\phi(x)\, = \int_0^{2\pi}\frac{x\sin\theta}{1 - 2x\cos\theta + x^2}u(\cos\theta, \sin\theta)\ d\theta
   +\ i\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{x\sin\theta}{1 - 2x\cos\theta + x^2}f(\cos\theta, \sin\theta)\ d\theta

Therefore,


	\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{x\sin\theta}{1 - 2x\cos\theta + x^2}f(\cos\theta, \sin\theta)\ d\theta = \pi\phi(x)
