(P1) Verify that the real and imaginary parts of these functions satisfy the Cauthy-Riemann equations:
(a) f (z) = z 4
(b) f (z) = sin z
(c) f (z) = cosh z
(d) f (z) = ez
Solution to (P1):

(a) Since z = x + iy, f (z) = z 4 ,


f (z) = (x + iy)4
= C40 x4 (iy)0 + C41 x3 (iy)1 + C42 x2 (iy)2
+ C43 x1 (iy)3 + C44 x0 (iy)4
= x4 + 4x3 yi 6x2 y 2 4xy 3 i + y 4
= (x4 6x2 y 2 + y 4 ) + (4x3 y 4xy 3 )i.
Then u(x, y) = x4 6x2 y 2 + y 4 , v(x, y) = 4x3 y 4xy 3 . To check the Cauchy-Riemann equations,
note that
ux =

vy =
uy =
vx =

u
= 4x3 12xy 2 ,
x

v
= 4x3 12xy 2 ,
y
u
= 12x2 y + 4y 3 ,
y
v
= 12x2 y 4y 3 .
x

It is seen that ux = vy , uy = vx , thus the Cauthy-Riemann equations are verified.

cosh z =

exp z exp (z)
sinh z =

2
and thus
cos z = cosh (iz),
sinh (iz) = i sin z.
(b) Since z = x + iy, f (z) = sin z and cos z = cosh iz, sinh iz = i sin z, we have
f (z) = sin z = sin(x + iy)
= sin (x) cos (iy) + cos (x) sin (iy)
= sin (x) cosh (y) + i cos (x) sinh (y).
Thus, u(x, y) = sin (x) cosh (y), v(x, y) = cos (x) sinh (y), and it has
ux = cos (x) cosh (y), vy = cos (x) cosh (y);
uy = sin (x) sinh (y), vx = sin (x) sinh (y).
The Cauchy-Riemann equations are satisfied.
(c) Since f (z) = cosh (z) and cosh (z) =

exp (z)+exp (z)


,

we have

exp (z) + exp(z)

exp (x + iy) + exp (x iy)

exp (x)(cos (y) i sin (y))]

i(exp (x) exp (x)) sin (y)]

f (z) = cosh (z) =


=
=
+
=
+

= cosh (x) cos (y) + i sinh (x) sin (y).

(1)

Thus, u(x, y) = cosh (x) cos (y), v(x, y) = sinh (x) sin (y), we have
ux = sinh (x) cos (y), vy = sinh (x) cos (y)
uy = cosh (x)sin(y), vx = cosh (x) sin (y),
which shows that the Cauchy-Riemann equations are satisfied.

(2)

(d) Since z = x + iy, f (z) = ez , we have


f (z) = ez = ex+iy
= ex (cos y + i sin y)
= ex cos y + iex sin y.

(3)

Thus, u(x, y) = ex cos y, v(x, y) = ex sin y, we have


ux = ex cos y, vy = ex cos y
uy = ex sin y, vx = ex sin y,
which shows that the Cauchy-Riemann equations are satisfied.
(P2) Solve the following equations using polar forms
(a) z 3 = 8
(b) z 4 + 1 = 0
(c) z 6 = 1
Solution to (P2):

(a) Note that the polar representation is z = r(cos + i sin ), and the N -th root of z is

n = 0, 1, . . . , (N 1).
For z 3 = 8,
z 3 = 8 [cos (2n) + i sin (2n)], n = 0, 1, 2.
Then,
z = 81/3 [cos (

2n
2n
) + i sin (
)], n = 0, 1, 2.

(b) Since z 4 = 1 = 1 (cos ( + 2n) + i sin ( + 2n)), then,

z = 11/4 (cos
