The Laurent series of $1/(z^2+1)^2$ in the annulus $0<|z-i|<2$

Hint: Your function can be written as: $f(z)=\displaystyle\frac{1}{(z-i)^2}\displaystyle\frac{1}{(z+i)^2}$.

The factor $g(z)=\displaystyle\frac{1}{(z+i)^2}=-\left(\displaystyle\frac{1}{z+i}\right)'$. Now you have to compute the power series expansion of the function $\displaystyle\frac{1}{z+i}=\displaystyle\frac{1}{z-i+2i}=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2i}\frac{1}{1+\frac{z-i}{2i}}$ in the form $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n (z-i)^n$, and mention where this expansion is valid. Then you differentiate the series term by term, and change the sign. Finally you multiply with the first factor of $f$, $\displaystyle\frac{1}{(z-i)^2}$.

Here is an approach.

$$ f(z)=\frac{1}{(z^2+1)^2} = \frac{1}{(z-i)^2} \frac{1}{((z-i)+2i)^2}= \frac{1}{(z-i)^2} \frac{1}{((z-i)+2i)^2} $$

$$ = \frac{1}{(z-i)^2} \frac{1}{(2i)^2(1+(z-i)/(2i))^2} $$

$$ = \frac{1}{(2i)^2(z-i)^2}\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} {-2\choose k} \frac{(z-i)^k}{(2i)^k} $$

$$ = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} {-2\choose k} \frac{(z-i)^{k-2}}{(2i)^{k+2}}, \quad |z-i|< 2 $$

Note: This is a suggestion by robjohn

$$ \binom{-2}{k}=(-1)^k(k+1). $$
