Analysis Are there any recommended Complex Analysis books for advanced students?

AI Thread Summary
For those seeking a comprehensive resource on complex analysis, Rudin's "Real and Complex Analysis" is a notable option, despite its unconventional structure. It is well-suited for readers with a background in advanced analysis and measure theory, as rigor is emphasized. While Ahlfors' book is recognized as a standard text in the field, it may not meet everyone's needs for worked examples and exercises. For additional practice, Schaume's "Outlines of Complex Variables" is recommended for its focus on exercises, although it may not be as rigorous as other texts. Alfohr's book has received mixed reviews, indicating it may not be the best choice for all learners.

I'm looking for a good Complex book, but the options seem slim. I was thinking about Rudin's Real and Complex. My only reservation is that it is not structured like any other book I've seen. I've had advanced analysis and measure and integration theory, so rigour is not a concern. I saw Alfohr's book, but the reviews aren't so great.

No book is liked by everybody. Ahlfors is a good standard book. You may want more worked examples and exercises. If so, look at Schaume's Outlines Complex Variables.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
