07 Complex Regions

Connected Set

A set where any 2 points can be joined without leaving the set

Refer to Types of Sets

  • open' = closed
  • closed' = open

Domain

a set that is both open and connected.

Limit/Accumulation Point

Deleted neighborhood of \(z_0\) contains atleast one point of \(S\)

closed set has all limit points

all interior points and boundary points are limit points

Properties of Functions

Differentiable

Consider derivative equation

\[ f'(z) = \lim_{\Delta z \to 0} \frac{ f(z + \Delta z) - f(z) }{ \Delta z } \]

A function is said to differentiable if \(f'(z)\) is unique

Analytic

Differentiable @ \(z_0\) and its neighborhood

Entire

Analytic Everywhere

Harmonic

\(u\) is harmonic if it satisfied Laplace equation, ie

\[ u_{xx} + u_{yy} = 0 \]

If \(f(z) = u+iv\), then

  • \(f(z)\) is analytic
    • Put \(y = 0, x = z \to f(z) = f(x)\) for shortcut
  • real and imaginary parts are harmonic
  • \(v\) is harmonic conjugate of \(u\)

Hyperbolic Function

\[ \begin{aligned} \cos(ix) &= \cosh(x) & \sin(ix) &= i \sinh(x) \\ \cosh(x) &= \frac{e^x + e^{-x}}{2} & \sinh(x) &= \frac{e^x - e^{-x}}{2} \\ \sinh'(x) &= \cosh(x) & \cosh'(x) &= \sinh(x) \end{aligned} \]
\[ \cosh^2(x) - \sinh^2(x) = 1 \]

CR Equation

Consider \(f(z) = u + iv\)

Rectangular Polar
\(u_x = v_y\) \(u_r = \frac{1}{r} v_\theta\)
\(u_y = - v_x\) \(u_\theta = -r v_r\)
Continuous \(u_x, u_y, v_x, v_y\) \(u_r, u_\theta, v_r, v_\theta\)
\(f'(z)\) \(u_x + i v_x\) \((u_r + i v_r) e^{-i \theta}\)
