SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the Cauchy-Riemann equations in polar form, specifically the relationships between the real and imaginary components of complex functions. Key equations include Ux=Vy and Uy=-Vx, which are essential for establishing the conditions for differentiability in complex analysis. The harmonic conditions Uxx+Uyy=0 and Vxx+Vyy=0 are also highlighted as critical for functions to be harmonic. The discussion references specific forms of the equations, including U+jV=f(rcosθ) and W=f(z), emphasizing the importance of these relationships in complex function theory.

I couldn't find any book discussing all of this.

===================================================
U+jV=f(x+jy) W=f(z)

Ux=Vy
Uy= -Vx
jWx=Wy <--Cauchy-Riemann equation

Uxx+Uyy=0
Vxx+Vyy=0 <--harmonic condition

===================================================
U+jV=f(rcjsθ) W=f(z)

rU_r=V_θ
rV_r=U_θ
jrW_r=W_θ <--Cauchy-Riemann equationU_{rr}?? U_{θθ}??
V_{rr}?? V_{θθ}?? <--harmonic condition??

===================================================
RcjsB=f(x+jy) W=f(z)

RBy = Rx
RBx= -Ry
jWx=Wy <--Cauchy-Riemann equation

Rxx?? Ryy??
Byy?? Bxx?? <--harmonic condition??

===================================================
RcjsB=f(rcjsθ) W=f(z)

rR_r=RB_θ
rRB_r=-R_θ
jrW_r=W_θ <--Cauchy-Riemann equation

R_{rr}?? R_{θθ}??
B_{rr}?? B_{θθ}?? <--harmonic condition??
