Complex analysi s i s a n activ e researc h subjec t b y itself , but , eve n more , i t provides the foundations fo r broad areas of mathematics, and plays an importan t role in the application s o f mathematics to engineering . This boo k i s intende d t o describ e a classica l introductor y par t o f comple x analysis fo r universit y student s i n the science s o r engineering , an d i n particula r to serv e a s a text o r a reference boo k fo r juniors, seniors , o r first-year graduat e students in the sciences. Th e prerequisites are elementary calculus, from the real numbers throug h differentiatio n an d integration , an d linea r algebra ; se t theor y and som e genera l topolog y ar e not required , bu t woul d b e helpful . Historically , the contents of this volume had been discovered by the beginning of the twentieth century, s o they ar e not ver y new. Nevertheless , the author trie d to arrange th e presentation an d choos e terminology t o agre e with moder n wor k i n the field. Many book s hav e bee n written o n this subject , i n many languages . Roughl y speaking, they can be divided into two types. On e tries to give an understandin g of th e subjec t usin g intuitiv e arguments . Th e othe r put s mor e emphasi s o n rigorous proofs, presenting the subject a s a fundamental theor y o f mathematics. This book fall s i n the latter group . I t i s well-known that ther e i s some difficult y in dealin g wit h curves , relate d t o Cauchy' s integra l theorem , a poin t o n whic h several published book s are somewhat unsatisfactory . T o deal with it rigorously , we give detailed description s o f the homotop y o f plane curves. Thi s material o n curves i s something th e reade r ma y wel l hav e encountere d i n previou s courses , so i t i s scattered throug h th e tex t wher e needed . Reader s whos e mathematica l background alread y includes this material may simply confirm the theorems an d go on. Since residu e theore m i s important bot h i n pur e mathematic s an d i n appli - cations, w e giv e a fairl y detaile d explanatio n o f ho w t o appl y i t t o numerica l calculations; thi s shoul d b e sufficien t fo r thos e wh o ar e studying comple x anal - ysis fo r applications . After thi s book , th e studen t shoul d b e read y t o tak e u p valu e distributio n theory, th e theor y o f Rieman n surfaces , comple x analysi s i n severa l variables , the theory o f complex manifolds, an d other subjects. Comple x analysi s will also

xi Xll PREFACE provide fundamenta l method s fo r th e theor y o f differential equations , algebrai c geometry, numbe r theory , an d othe r fields. Th e autho r wrot e Chapter s 6 and 7 with these transitions i n mind . The autho r wil l b e ver y please d i f thi s boo k help s student s t o understan d the classica l theor y o f comple x analysis , to relis h it s beauty, an d t o maste r th e rigorous treatment o f mathematical demonstrations . This volum e i s based o n lecture s fo r third-yea r student s give n b y the autho r at th e Tokyo Institute o f Technology. Th e clas s contained no t just mathematic s majors, but also physics and applied physics students. Th e author is very gratefu l to al l o f them . Finally, bu t no t least , th e autho r woul d lik e t o expres s hi s dee p thank s t o Professor Mitsur u Ozawa , wh o le d hi m t o comple x analysis , an d t o Professo r Shingo Murakami, who recommended hi m to write this book. H e is also obliged to Mr. Shuj i Hosoki , o f the Shokab o publishing company , fo r the proofreading .
