4 Harmonic Function Solved Numericals

The document discusses harmonic functions and provides solutions to three problems involving harmonic functions: 1) It proves that if u(x,y) is a harmonic function, then f(z) = ux - iuy is an analytic function. 2) It shows that harmonic functions satisfy the differential equation ∂2u/∂z∂z̅ = 0. 3) It demonstrates that if u and v are harmonic conjugates, then their product uv is also a harmonic function.

1) If u (x, y) is a harmonic function then prove that


f (z) = is an analytic function.
Solution:
Since u is a harmonic function

By the given that f (z) =


Let = U and = V

So, that f (z) = U + iV


We have to show that f (z) is analytic.
