Homework Help Overview

The problem involves determining the analyticity of three complex functions: \( f(z) = \frac{e^z}{z^2 + 4} \), \( f(z) = \frac{\text{conj}(z)}{|z|^2} \), and \( f(z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \left( \frac{e^z}{3^n} (2z - 4)^n \right) \). Participants are tasked with identifying the domains where these functions are analytic and sketching those domains.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants discuss separating functions into real and imaginary parts and manipulating denominators. There are attempts to apply theorems regarding rational functions and the conditions under which they are analytic. Questions arise about transforming functions into the appropriate form for analysis.

Discussion Status

Some participants have provided hints regarding the properties of exponential functions and rational functions, suggesting that the analyticity can be determined by examining the zeros of the denominator. Others express challenges in transforming functions into the required form for further analysis.

Contextual Notes

Participants note the importance of identifying points where the functions may not be analytic, particularly at zeros of the denominator and the origin for certain functions. There is an acknowledgment of the complexity involved in the transformations required for the analysis.

Homework Statement


determine if

a) f(z) = e^z / (z^2 + 4)

b) f(z) = conj(z) / |z|^2

c) f(z) = sum from 0 to inf. [ (e^z / 3^n) * (2z - 4)^n ]


is analytic and sketch the domain where it is analytic.

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution



a) i don't know how to separate the function into a real and imaginary part. I have a feeling that the denominator needs to be manipulated but I have no clue how.

f(z) = e^(x + yi) / ((x+yi)^2 + 4)

f(z) = (e^x * cosy) / ((x+yi)^2 + 4) + (ie^x * siny) / ((x+yi)^2 + 4)

(e^x * cosy)* ((x-yi)^2 + 4) / ((x+yi)^2 + 4)((x-yi)^2 + 4)I'm guessing it is analytic everywhere except

z^2 = -4

b) f(z) = conj(z) / |z|^2

f(z) = 1 / z

1/z = 1 / ( x+yi)

(x - yi) / (x^2 + y ^2)

= x / (x^2 + y ^2) - yi / (x^2 + y ^2)

since du/dx u(x,y) = dv/dy u(x,y)

and dv/dx u(x,y) = - dv/dx u(x,y)

the function is analytic everywhere except at the origin.

c) I used the ratio test and got lim n-> inf |1/3 (2z - 4)| = |1/3 (2z - 4)|

it's analytic on 0 < |2z - 4| < 3 ?

some hint to start:
e^z is analytic.

by theroem: A rational function (the quotient of two polynomials) is analytic, except at zeroes of the denominator.

So take care of Z^2 + 4 - > find the values at which the term become zero.
Sketch it on the complex plane.

By the way, should be bounded by some region when u say if you would like to take integral... if not you would know if the whole function is analytic anot. In my opinion, z^2+4 will fail to be analytic when it is set to zero.

hence cauchy integral formula should be used.

hope it helps
 


helps a bit, yet. I am having trouble transforming the original equation from part a) into f(z) = u(x,y) + i v(x,y) before the cauchy equations can be used.
 


(1) replace z = x + jy.
(2) expand and simplify.

:)

You'll get it. It may gets abit complicated. Be careful on the steps.
