This is a one semester course at the advanced undergraduate level. The main prerequisite is some very elementary real analysis at the level of the Math 3100 (sequences and series) course that is taught at UGA. In places we also use a bit of linear algebra. I am not myself an expert in complex analysis, so I want to make clear that in writing these notes I am almost exclusively following other sources. The main text for the course was [BMPS], and overall we follow this rather closely, in particular in the ordering of topics. Perhaps it will be helpful to list the main differences between these notes and [BMPS]: • We introduce the complex logarithm rather late in the day, in x4.9. • We give a proof of the equivalence of connectedness and path-connectedness for open subsets of C, following a slick argument of [FB]. • Our discussion of contour integration is largely motivated by analogies to line integrals in mul- tivariable calculus. • We do not make use of the notion of homotopy of paths. (We certainly have nothing against it! But we think these ideas are better developed in either a second course on complex analysis or a first course in algebraic topology.) Our notion of simple connectedness is therefore in terms of simple closed curves being the boundaries of subdomains. We assume the Jordan-Schoenflies The- orem that every simple closed curve has a well-defined interior and exterior and that the interior is simply connected. Other than this, our discussion is self-contained and complete. • We include a proof of the Cauchy-Goursat Theorem, largely following [SS]. • We include a proof of Cauchy's Integral Theorem for Derivatives before our discussion of se- ries methods. On the other hand, we develop the basic theory of series a bit differently so that Cauchy's Integral Theorem for Derivatives also follows independently from this theory, whereas the development in [BMPS] uses Cauchy's Integral Theorem for the First Derivative. • We prove the Maximum Modulus Theorem more directly, without using harmonic functions. • Our discussion of computing Laurent series expansions is more detailed. • Our discussion on summation of series using residues is more detailed. Most of the additional details are taken from [MH, x4.4]. 1. The complex numbers 1.1. Vista: The shadow of the real. A complex number z is something of the form z = x + iy where x; y 2 R and i2 = −1. We notice that this is not quite a definition in a way that was deeply problematic for hundreds of years. Not to brag, but the very first thing we will actually do is COMPLEX ANALYSIS: SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES 3 totally resolve that problem. Just for a few minutes though, let's go with it. Complex numbers naturally arise while solving polynomial equations. The beginnings of this are taught in high school: the solution to the general quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 { for a; b; c real numbers with a 6= 0 { is p −b ± b2 − 4ac x = : 2a The quantity ∆ = b2 − 4ac is called the discriminant of the quadratic equation. Since the image of the squaring function R ! R; x 7! x2 is [0; 1), a real number has a real square root iff it is non-negative. So if ∆ > 0 the quadratic equation has two distinct roots. If ∆ = 0 the quadratic −b equation has just one root, r = 2a , but it occurs with multiplicity 2: that is, ax2 + bx + c = a(x − r)2: However, if ∆ < 0 then the formulap does not make sense in the real numbers. However, it does make sense in the complex numbers: ∆ = ipj∆j. Thus complex numbers are \born to give roots to all real quadratic equations." It turns out that the \equation solving ability" of the complex numbers is much more powerful than that. Soon enough we will see that for every nonzero complex number z and any positive integer n, there are exactly n complex numbers w such that wn = z. In particular, every nonzero complex number z has exactly two complex square roots, which are negatives of each other. From this and the same quadratic formula it follows that every quadratic equation az2 + bz + c = 0 with a; b; c 2 C and a 6= 0 has a root in z. Later on in the course we will see that much more is true: any nonconstant polynomial with complex coefficient has a complex root: this is the celebrated Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, first proved by Gauss. In many ways, the R world you have already met is just a shadow of the C world into which you're about to be thrust. Example 1.1. In the R-world, trigonometric functions cos x and sin x are very different from expo- nential functions ex: the former are periodic, hence bounded, whereas the latter grows exponentially fast. And yet there are some glimpses of a deeper relationship. For instance, consider one of the simplest differential equations: y00 = αy for α 2 R. What are the solutions? If α > 0, then they are exponential functions. If α < 0 they are trigonometric functions. Also consider: 1 X xn ex = ; n! n=0 1 1 X x2n X x2n+1 cos x = (−1)n ; sin x = (−1)n : (2n)! (2n + 1)! n=0 n=0 It looks like cos x and sin x are each \half of" ex { but something screwy is going on with the signs. But if we allow ourselves a complex variable, something amazing happens: first observe that 1 = i0 = i4 = i8 = :::; i = i1 = i5 = i9 = :::; −1 = i2 = i6 = i10 = :::; −i = i3 = i7 = i11 = :::: 4 PETE L. CLARK Then: 1 X (ix)n eix = = 1 + ix + i2x2=2! + i3x3=3! + i4x4=4! + ::: n! n=0 = (1 + i2x2=2! + i4x4=4! + i6x6=6! + :::) + i(x + i2x3=3! + i4x5=5! + i6x7=7! + :::) = (1 − x2=2! + x4=4! − x6=6! + :::) + i(x − x3=3! + x5=5! − x7=7! + :::) = cos x + i sin x: Thus, in the C-world the exponential function is periodic (its period is 2πi) and the trigonometric functions are unbounded. Later we will see that in the C-world every nonconstant \entire function" is unbounded! This relationship is not only true but profoundly useful. We give one example. Theorem 1.2. (Fresnel1 Integrals) We have Z 1 Z 1 rπ cos(x2)dx = sin(x2)dx = : 0 0 8 Complex analysis will reduce this integral to one familiar from multivariable calculus: 1 Z 2 p e−x dx = π: −∞ 1.2. Introducing C: something old and something new. In this section we introduce the complex field C. Recall that the real numbers R come endowed with binary operations of addition and multiplication + : R × R ! R; · : R × R ! R that satisfy the following properties: (P1) (Commutativity of +): For all x; y 2 R, we have x + y = y + x. (P2) (Associativity of +): For all x; y; z 2 R, we have (x + y) + z = x + (y + z). (P3) (Identity for +): There is 0 2 R such that for all x 2 R, we have x + 0 = x. (P4) (Inverses for +): For all x 2 R, there is y 2 R with x + y = 0. (P5) (Commutativity of ·): For all x; y 2 R, we have x · y = y · x. (P6) (Associativity of ·): For all x; y; z 2 R, we have (x · y) · z = x · (y · z). (P7) (Identity for ·): There is 1 2 R such that for all x 2 R, we have 1 · x = x. (P8) (Inverses for ·): For all x 2 R, if x 6= 0, then there is y 2 R with x · y = 1. (P9) (Distributivity of · over +): For all x; y; z 2 R, we have x · (y + z) = (x · y) + (x · z).

  • The Weierstrass Substitution
    Academic Forum 30 2012-13 Cauchy Confers with Weierstrass Lloyd Edgar S. Moyo, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Mathematics Abstract. We point out two limitations of using the Cauchy Residue Theorem to evaluate a definite integral of a real rational function of cos θ and sin θ . We also exhibit a definite integral with the limitations. Finally, we overcome the limitations by using the Weierstrass substitution. Introduction Let R be a rational function of two real variables. Consider a real integral 2π ∫ R(cos θ,sin θ)dθ . 0 By using the substitution z = e iθ , where i= −1 and θ is a real number, it can be shown that 2π R(cos θ,sin θ)dθ = − i 1R(z 2 +1 , z 2 −1 )dz . (1) ∫ ∫ |=z| 1 z 2z 2iz 0 For details, see, for example, Palka [4], p. 329 or Ahlfors [1], p. 154 or Crowder and McCuskey [2], p. 258. By the Cauchy Residue Theorem, we have n n 1 z 2 +1 z 2 −1 − i R( , )dz = (−i)( 2πi) Re s( f (z); zk ) = 2π Re s( f (z); zk ,) ∫ |=z| 1 z 2z 2iz ∑ ∑ k =1 k =1 where 1 z2 +1 z2 −1 f (z) = z R( 2z , 2iz ), z1,..., zn are the poles of f in the open unit disk D = {z ∈C:|z|<1}, and Res ( f(z); zk ) denotes the residue of f at the pole zk . Hence, (1) becomes 2π n ∫ R(cos θ,sin θ)dθ = 2π ∑ Re s( f (z); zk .) (2) 0 k =1 Limitations of Formula (2) In this section, we point out two cases for which the formula (2) does not apply and we suggest a different method of attack.

  • Rationalizing Substitutions
    Rationalizing Substitutions By Angelo Mingarelli In this chapter we look at a few more substitutions that can be used effectively to transform some types of integrals to those involving rational functions. In this way we may be able to integrate the original functions by referring to the method of Partial Fractions from Chapter 8. Before we start though we need to remind the reader of a notion called the least common multiple of two given positive integers. As the phrase suggests, the least common multiple (abbr. lcm) of two numbers x, y (assumed integers) is the smallest number that is a multiple of each one of x and y. For example, the lcm{2, 4} =4,since4is the smallest number that is a multiple of both 2 and itself. Other examples include, the lcm{2, 3, 4} = 12, lcm{2, 3} =6,lcm{2, 5} = 10, lcm{2, 4, 6} =12 etc. Thus, given two fractions, say 1/2and1/3, the least common multiple of their denominators is 6. As a typical example we’re going to try to get rid of those crazy looking roots in integrands so as to make the new expression look like a rational function. √ x Example 1 Evaluate the integral dx. 1+x Solution: Well, in order to eliminate the “square root” here it would be nice to try out the substitution x = z2, dx =2zdz. This is because √ x z dx zdz x = z2 2 1+ 1+ z2 2 dz = z2 1+ 1 =2 1 − dz 1+z2 =2z − 2Arctan(z)+C √ √ =2x − 2Arctan( x)+C, where C is the usual constant of integration.

  • Curvature, Natural Frames, and Acceleration for Plane and Space Curves
    CURVATURE, NATURAL FRAMES, AND ACCELERATION FOR PLANE AND SPACE CURVES A. HAVENS 0. Prelude We explore here the relationships between curvature, natural frames, and acceleration for motion along space and plane curves, described mathematically by vector-valued functions. In the first three sections (pages 1-7) we discuss generalities for space curves. As such, for these sections we 3 consider a continuous, several-times differentiable vector-valued function γ : I ! R where I ⊆ R is a connected interval which may be either closed, open or half open. The image of such a vector- 3 valued function, i.e. the set of points of R whose position vectors are γ(t) for some t 2 I, determines 3 a space curve: C = fγ(t) 2 R jt 2 Ig. We will often simply refer to γ as the curve, though in truth it is a parameterization of the curve C. Throughout the notes, we use the idea of \time" interchangeably with an arbitrary motion 3 parameter t 2 I for a particle undergoing motion along the space curve C = fγ(t) 2 R jt 2 Ig. Unless explicitly noted we assume regularity: the component functions x; y; z : I ! R of γ = ^ dγ x(t)^ı + y(t)^ + z(t) k are differentiable and γ_ := dt 6= 0. This condition ensures that there are no cusps/kinks along the curve (while one may have cause to consider such curves in application, the existence of kinks doesn't play nicely with the definitions of curvature and natural frames). In fact, we sometimes need these component functions to be at least three-times continuously differentiable, and so one should assume that for any arbitrary vector-valued functions in these notes.
