How to Determine Complex Differentiability and Holomorphicity of a Function?

Click For Summary

Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around determining the complex differentiability and holomorphicity of the function f(z) = z(bar(z))^2 + 2(bar(z))z^2. Participants are tasked with calculating the total differential of f as a map from R² to R² and identifying points of complex differentiability and holomorphicity.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants discuss the use of the Jacobian and the Cauchy-Riemann equations to assess differentiability. There is an exploration of the implications of differentiability along the imaginary axis and the definition of holomorphic functions.

Discussion Status

Some participants have provided insights into the definitions and properties of differentiability and holomorphicity. There is an ongoing examination of why differentiability on a line does not imply holomorphicity in a region, with questions raised about the nature of open sets and neighborhoods.

Contextual Notes

Participants are navigating the definitions and properties of complex functions, particularly focusing on the distinction between differentiability in a line versus a region. There is acknowledgment of the need for clarity in the definitions used in the discussion.

Homework Statement


f(z)=z(bar(z))^2+2(bar(z))z^2 ,then calculate the total differential of f viewed as a map from R^2->R^2 . determine the points at which f is complex differentiable , is f holomorhpic anywhere?

2. The attempt at a solution
i did the first part and for secund part i use the Jocobian ,for if it is differentiable then if follow the cachy rieman equations which is 9x^2+3y^2=x^2+3y^2, and 6xy=-2xy the solution for the equation systems is x=o y is real , so it can be differentiable at (o,y) y is real number ,does it right? if it is ,then How should i found holomorphic anywhere?

That looks ok for differentiable. What's the definition of 'holomorphic'?

f:k->C is holomorphic if f is complex differentiable at all point of the region K
For the quesiton, for x=o so z=iy then the point can be differentiable is the line of imaginary axis ,for it is a line we cannnot define holomorphic here, then that's nowhere for f to be holomophic

is my argument right??

It's not very well worded. Sure, it's differentiable on a line. You'll want to explain why a 'line' isn't a 'region'. What property does a region have that a line doesn't?

if i choose a point inside the region,then choose the very close small region around that point, in the point inside the small region should be diff. what i mean is the region should be open ,but the line we cannot find here, i didnt explain it in my post sorry

Right. There's no point on the line that has a neighborhood of the point that's contained in the line. The line doesn't contain any open sets. It has empty interior.
