Plotting Riemann Surfaces with Wolfram Mathematica 8.0

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on plotting Riemann surfaces of complex functions using Wolfram Mathematica 8.0. Users express the need for a command to visualize these surfaces directly within the software. While some suggest utilizing Wolfram Alpha for generating commands, others highlight the potential limitations of this approach for more complex functions. The conversation emphasizes the importance of accessing downloadable code from the Wolfram Demonstrations Project for practical implementation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with complex functions and Riemann surfaces
  • Basic knowledge of Wolfram Mathematica 8.0
  • Understanding of command-line operations in Mathematica
  • Experience with Wolfram Alpha for generating commands
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the Wolfram Demonstrations Project for downloadable Riemann surface code
  • Learn how to use Wolfram Alpha to generate Mathematica commands
  • Investigate advanced plotting techniques in Wolfram Mathematica 8.0
  • Study the mathematical theory behind Riemann surfaces and their applications
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, educators, and students interested in visualizing complex functions, as well as users of Wolfram Mathematica 8.0 seeking to enhance their plotting capabilities.

Does anybody know how to plot the Riemann surface of complex functions on wolfram Mathematica 8.0 ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
That is great , but I have a question . Can we add a command to draw the Riemann surface of any complex function ? . I can do that online Riemann - Wolfram|Alpha by typing Riemann surface (w(z)) , but I have no idea how to do that on the software !
 
I'm not on my mathematica computer right now, altough if it work in wolfram alpha you can always do

?"WOLFRAM COMMAND" it'll then do what wolfram would have done, and it'll show you the command line. (It work with simple stuff like integrate and derivative) Maybe it won't work with something more complex, but it's worth a try!
