KnowraBranch pointLinked fromLinked fromThe 8 pages that link to Branch point, each with the reason it gives.All 8Related 5Compared with 3Analytic continuationCompared with: It makes continuation path-dependent even when local extensions exist.Riemann surfaceRelated: Branch points mark where sheets of a function's surface meet under projection.ResidueCompared with: A branch point is generally not an isolated singularity with an ordinary Laurent residue.Uniqueness of solutionsRelated: Multivalued functions illustrate why equations may encode several distinct values.Algebraic functionRelated: Roots of the defining polynomial can exchange when the input circles a branch point.Lambert W functionRelated: At z = −1/e, the real branches meet and the inverse develops a branch point.Binomial seriesRelated: For noninteger \(\alpha\), the complex power has branching at \(x=-1\), limiting the series centered at zero.Riemann–Hurwitz formulaCompared with: Branch points lie on the target, while the formula’s ramification sum runs over the source.
