Pole of A Function On A Complex Manifold
In general, having a function that is holomorphic in a neighborhood, of the point, in the complex manifold M, it is said that f has a pole at a of order n if, having a chart, the function has a pole of order n at (which can be taken as being zero if a convenient choice of the chart is made). ] The pole at infinity is the simplest nontrivial example of this definition in which M is taken to be the Riemann sphere and the chart is taken to be .

“O, withered is the garland of the war,

“Philosophical questions are not by their nature insoluble. They are, indeed, radically different from scientific questions, because they concern the implications and other interrelations of ideas, not the order of physical events; their answers are interpretations instead of factual reports, and their function is to increase not our knowledge of nature, but our understanding of what we know.”
—Susanne K. Langer (1895–1985)
