Homework Statement
Let u(x,y) be harmonic in a simply connected domain [itex]\Omega[/itex]. Use the Cauchy-Riemann equations to obtain the formula for the conjugate harmonic
[tex]v(x,y)=\int^{(x,y)}_{x_0,y_0} (u_xdy-u_ydx)[/tex]
where [itex](x_0,y_0)[/itex] is any fixed point of [itex]\Omega[/itex] and the integration is along any path in [itex]\Omega[/itex] joining [itex](x_0,y_0)[/itex] and (x,y).
Homework Equations
Cauchy Riemann eqns
[tex]u_x=v_y, u_y=v_x[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
At first this just looks like a simple bit of integration but for some reason I just cannot get the result. How do I get rid of the dependence on x and y of the constants of integration?
[tex]u_x=v_y [/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow v(x,y) = \int^y_{y_0} u_xdy[/tex]
[tex] v(x,y) = \int^x_{x_0} u_ydx[/tex]
Differentiating each wrt the other variable in an attempt to link the two eqns doesn't seem to get me anywhere...
