Analytic function
A function f(z) which is single valued and possesses a unique derivative with respect to z at
all points of region R is called as an analytic function.
u u v v
If u & v are real, single valued functions of x & y s. t. , , , are continuous
x y x y
u v v u
throughout a region R, then Cauchy – Riemann equations ;
x y x y
are necessary & sufficient condition for f(z) = u + iv to be analytic in R.
Cauchy’s Theorem
If f(z) is an analytic function and f’(z) is continuous at each point within and on a
closed curve C. then
f z dz 0

Cauchy’s Integral formula
If f(z) is analytic within & on a closed curve C, & a is any point within C.

Poles
If all negative powers of (z – a) after nth are missing, then z = a is a pole of order ‘n’.
Essential singularity
If the number of negative power of (z – a) is infinite, the z = a is essential
singularity & cannot be removed.
RESIDUES
If z = a is an isolated singularity of f(z)

Then residue of f(z) at z = a is a1

Where residue is calculated at poles in upper half plane & poles of f(z) are found
by substituting z in place of x in f(x).
