SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding an analytic function f(z) where Re(z) is defined as sin(2x)/[cosh(2y)-cos(2x)]. The user, Andrew, attempts to derive the imaginary part of the function by applying the Cauchy-Riemann equations, specifically du/dx = dv/dy and du/dy = -dv/dx. However, he encounters difficulties in integrating the derived expressions. A suggestion is made to correct the expression for du/dy to facilitate easier integration.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of complex functions and analytic functions.
  • Familiarity with the Cauchy-Riemann equations.
  • Basic knowledge of integration techniques in calculus.
  • Experience with the Argand diagram and its applications in complex analysis.
NEXT STEPS
  • Review the Cauchy-Riemann equations in detail.
  • Practice integration techniques for complex functions.
  • Explore the properties of analytic functions in the Argand diagram.
  • Investigate common mistakes in deriving imaginary parts from real parts in complex analysis.
USEFUL FOR

Students studying complex analysis, mathematicians working with analytic functions, and educators teaching calculus and complex variables.

Homework Statement



Find a function f(z) that is analytic in a suitable part of the Argand diagram for which

Re(z) = sin(2x)/[cosh(2y)-cos(2x)]



The Attempt at a Solution



I've taken the derivative with respect to both x and y and am attempting to integrate them to find an imaginary part of the equation that will satisfy the Cauchy-Reimann relation (du/dx = dv/dy; du/dy = -dv/dx where u is Re(z) and v is Im(z)), but I et to an integral I am not sure how to solve. My work is attached in a scanned document.

Thanks for helping!
Andrew

Your expression for du/dy would be a lot easier to integrate dx if it were correct. Can you fix it?
