The logarithmic derivative ψ of the functions, which extends the domain of that matrix Gamma function is known as the Psi or digamma functions, can be expected to be useful provided that the function, that is, it is given by important properties of the special matrix functions are carried over to the generalization in a natural and simple Γ ′ (x) manner. Of course, the original special matrix functions ψ(x)= , Γ (x) and its properties must be recoverable as a particular case of the generalization.

  • Lecture 5: Complex Logarithm and Trigonometric Functions
    LECTURE 5: COMPLEX LOGARITHM AND TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS Let C∗ = C \{0}. Recall that exp : C → C∗ is surjective (onto), that is, given w ∈ C∗ with w = ρ(cos φ + i sin φ), ρ = |w|, φ = Arg w we have ez = w where z = ln ρ + iφ (ln stands for the real log) Since exponential is not injective (one one) it does not make sense to talk about the inverse of this function. However, we also know that exp : H → C∗ is bijective. So, what is the inverse of this function? Well, that is the logarithm. We start with a general definition Definition 1. For z ∈ C∗ we define log z = ln |z| + i argz. Here ln |z| stands for the real logarithm of |z|. Since argz = Argz + 2kπ, k ∈ Z it follows that log z is not well defined as a function (it is multivalued), which is something we find difficult to handle. It is time for another definition. Definition 2. For z ∈ C∗ the principal value of the logarithm is defined as Log z = ln |z| + i Argz. Thus the connection between the two definitions is Log z + 2kπ = log z for some k ∈ Z. Also note that Log : C∗ → H is well defined (now it is single valued). Remark: We have the following observations to make, (1) If z 6= 0 then eLog z = eln |z|+i Argz = z (What about Log (ez)?). (2) Suppose x is a positive real number then Log x = ln x + i Argx = ln x (for positive real numbers we do not get anything new).

  • 3 Elementary Functions
    3 Elementary Functions We already know a great deal about polynomials and rational functions: these are analytic on their entire domains. We have thought a little about the square-root function and seen some difficulties. The remaining elementary functions are the exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions. 3.1 The Exponential and Logarithmic Functions (§30–32, 34) We have already defined the exponential function exp : C ! C : z 7! ez using Euler’s formula ez := ex cos y + iex sin y (∗) and seen that its real and imaginary parts satisfy the Cauchy–Riemann equations on C, whence exp C d z = z is entire (analytic on ). Indeed recall that dz e e . We have also seen several of the basic properties of the exponential function, we state these and several others for reference. Lemma 3.1. Throughout let z, w 2 C. 1. ez 6= 0. ez 2. ez+w = ezew and ez−w = ew 3. For all n 2 Z, (ez)n = enz. 4. ez is periodic with period 2pi. Indeed more is true: ez = ew () z − w = 2pin for some n 2 Z Proof. Part 1 follows trivially from (∗). To prove 2, recall the multiple-angle formulae for cosine and sine. Part 3 requires an induction using part 2 with z = w. Part 4 is more interesting: certainly ew+2pin = ew by the periodicity of sine and cosine. Now suppose ez = ew where z = x + iy and w = u + iv. Then, by considering the modulus and argument, ( ex = eu exeiy = eueiv =) y = v + 2pin for some n 2 Z We conclude that x = u and so z − w = i(y − v) = 2pin.

  • Complex Numbers and Functions
    Complex Numbers and Functions Richard Crew January 20, 2018 This is a brief review of the basic facts of complex numbers, intended for students in my section of MAP 4305/5304. I will discuss basic facts of com- plex arithmetic, limits and derivatives of complex functions, power series and functions like the complex exponential, sine and cosine which can be defined by convergent power series. This is a preliminary version and will be added to later. 1 Complex Numbers 1.1 Arithmetic. A complex number is an expression a + bi where i2 = −1. Here the real number a is the real part of the complex number and bi is the imaginary part. If z is a complex number we write <(z) and =(z) for the real and imaginary parts respectively. Two complex numbers are equal if and only if their real and imaginary parts are equal. In particular a + bi = 0 only when a = b = 0. The set of complex numbers is denoted by C. Complex numbers are added, subtracted and multiplied according to the usual rules of algebra: (a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + di) (1.1) (a + bi) − (c + di) = (a − c) + (b − di) (1.2) (a + bi)(c + di) = (ac − bd) + (ad + bc)i (1.3) (note how i2 = −1 has been used in the last equation). Division performed by rationalizing the denominator: a + bi (a + bi)(c − di) (ac − bd) + (bc − ad)i = = (1.4) c + di (c + di)(c − di) c2 + d2 Note that denominator only vanishes if c + di = 0, so that a complex number can be divided by any nonzero complex number.

  • Chapter 2 Complex Analysis
    Chapter 2 Complex Analysis In this part of the course we will study some basic complex analysis. This is an extremely useful and beautiful part of mathematics and forms the basis of many techniques employed in many branches of mathematics and physics. We will extend the notions of derivatives and integrals, familiar from calculus, to the case of complex functions of a complex variable. In so doing we will come across analytic functions, which form the centerpiece of this part of the course. In fact, to a large extent complex analysis is the study of analytic functions. After a brief review of complex numbers as points in the complex plane, we will ¯rst discuss analyticity and give plenty of examples of analytic functions. We will then discuss complex integration, culminating with the generalised Cauchy Integral Formula, and some of its applications. We then go on to discuss the power series representations of analytic functions and the residue calculus, which will allow us to compute many real integrals and in¯nite sums very easily via complex integration. 2.1 Analytic functions In this section we will study complex functions of a complex variable. We will see that di®erentiability of such a function is a non-trivial property, giving rise to the concept of an analytic function. We will then study many examples of analytic functions. In fact, the construction of analytic functions will form a basic leitmotif for this part of the course. 2.1.1 The complex plane We already discussed complex numbers briefly in Section 1.3.5.

  • An Example of a Covering Surface with Movable Natural Boundaries
    An example of a covering surface with movable natural boundaries Claudi Meneghin November 13, 2018 Abstract We exhibit a covering surface of the punctured complex plane (with no points over 0) whose natural projection mapping fails to be a topo- logical covering, due to the existence of branches with natural bound- ∗ aries, projecting over different slits in C . In [1], A.F.Beardon shows an example of a ’covering surface’ over a region in the unit disc which is not a topological covering (We recall that a ’covering surface’ of a region D ⊂ C is a Riemann surface S admitting a surjective conformal mapping onto D, among which there are the analytical continua- tions of holomorphic germs; a continuous mapping p of a topological space Y onto another one X is a ’topological covering’ provided that each point x ∈ X admits an open neighbourhood U such that the restriction of p to −1 each connected component Vi of p (U) is a homeomorphism of Vi onto U, see [2, 3]). Beardon’s example takes origin by the analytical continuation of a holo- morphic germ, namely a branch of the inverse of the Blaschke product arXiv:math/0408086v3 [math.CV] 11 Jul 2008 ∞ z − a B(z)= n , n 1 − anz Y=1 with suitable hypotheses about the an’s. It is shown that there is a sequence of inverse branches fk of B at 0 such that the radii of convergence of their Taylor developments tend to 0 as k →∞. This of course prevents the natural projection (taking a germ at z0 to the point z0) of the analytical continuation of any branch of B−1 to be a topological covering.

It has many applications in pure and applied mathematics, some of which are briefly described here. We present a new discussion of the complex branches of W ,an asymptotic expansion valid for all branches, an efficient numerical procedure for evaluating the function to arbitrary precision, and a method for the symbolic integration of expressions containing W . 1. Introduction In 1758, Lambert solved the trinomial equation x = q +xm by giving a series develop- ment for x in powers of q. Later, he extended the series to give powers of x as well [48,49]. In [28], Euler transformed Lambert’s equation into the more symmetrical form xα − xβ =(α − β)vxα+β (1.1) by substituting x−β for x and setting m = α/β and q =(α − β)v. Euler’s version of Lambert’s series solution was thus n 1 2 x =1+nv + 2 n(n + α + β)v + 1 n(n + α +2β)(n +2α + β)v3 6 (1.2) 1 4 + 24 n(n + α +3β)(n +2α +2β)(n +3α + β)v +etc.

  • The Complex Logarithm, Exponential and Power Functions
    Physics 116A Winter 2011 The complex logarithm, exponential and power functions In these notes, we examine the logarithm, exponential and power functions, where the arguments∗ of these functions can be complex numbers. In particular, we are interested in how their properties differ from the properties of the corresponding real-valued functions.† 1. Review of the properties of the argument of a complex number Before we begin, I shall review the properties of the argument of a non-zero complex number z, denoted by arg z (which is a multi-valued function), and the principal value of the argument, Arg z, which is single-valued and conventionally defined such that: π < Arg z π . (1) − ≤ Details can be found in the class handout entitled, The argument of a complex number. Here, we recall a number of results from that handout. One can regard arg z as a set consisting of the following elements, arg z = Arg z +2πn, n =0 , 1 , 2 , 3 ,..., π < Arg z π . (2) ± ± ± − ≤ One can also express Arg z in terms of arg z as follows: 1 arg z Arg z = arg z +2π , (3) 2 − 2π where [ ] denotes the greatest integer function. That is, [x] is defined to be the largest integer less than or equal to the real number x. Consequently, [x] is the unique integer that satisfies the inequality x 1 < [x] x , for real x and integer [x] . (4) − ≤ ∗Note that the word argument has two distinct meanings. In this context, given a function w = f(z), we say that z is the argument of the function f.
