Q1

Cauchy riemann equations:


\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial v}{\partial y}\quad\text{and}\quad\frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = -\frac{\partial v}{\partial x}

Liouville's Theorem:

Any non-constant entire function is unbounded.

So \cos(z) is unbounded in \mathbb{C}.


\text{Log}(-e^2) = \ln|-e^2| + i\arg(-e^2) = -2 + \pi i

At any point z_0\in \mathbb{C}\setminus\{0\}, there is an open set z_0\in U\subset \mathbb{C} and a branch of logarithm defined on U.

Q2

Power series expansion

Q3

limit superior

Q4

Bound integral

Q5

f_n converges pointwise to f on U if \forall z\in U, \forall \epsilon > 0, \exists N s.t. \forall n\geq N, |f_n(z)-f(z)| < \epsilon.

f_n converges uniformly to f on U if \forall \epsilon > 0, \exists N s.t. \forall n\geq N, \forall z\in U, |f_n(z)-f(z)| < \epsilon.

Show for |z|<1, f_n(z)=z^n converges pointwise to 0 but not uniformly to 0.

(a) pointwise convergence:

|z^n| = |z|^n < \epsilon if n > \frac{\ln\epsilon}{\ln|z|}.

(b) uniform convergence:

No matter how small \epsilon is, there is always a z s.t. |z^n| > \epsilon for all n.

Schwarz's Lemma

Let f be an holomorphic function that maps the unit disk D(0,1) to itself and f(0)=0. Then |f(z)|\leq |z| for all z\in D(0,1)

Schwarz-Pick's Lemma

(see exercise 7.17.2)

Let f be an holomorphic function that maps the unit disk D(0,1) to itself. Then \forall z,w\in D(0,1),


\left|\frac{f(z)-f(w)}{1-\overline{f(w)}f(z)}\right|\leq \left|\frac{z-w}{1-\overline{w}z}\right|

Recall the Möbius map

\phi_\alpha(z) = \frac{z-\alpha}{1-\overline{\alpha}z}

is a homeomorphism of the unit disk.

So we can use the Möbius to restate the Schwarz-Pick's Lemma as:

|\phi_{f(w)}(f(z))|\leq |\phi_w(z)|

Suppose we defined g=\phi_{f(w)}\circ f\circ \phi_{-w}, then g is a holomorphic function that maps the unit disk to itself and g(0)=0.

By Schwarz's Lemma, let z\in D(0,1), |g(z)|\leq |z|.


|\phi_{f(w)}(f(\phi_{-w}(z)))|\leq |z|

Let \zeta=\phi_{-w}(z), then \zeta=\frac{z+w}{1+\overline{w}z}\in D(0,1), so |\zeta|=\phi_w(z).

Extension of Schwarz-Pick's Lemma in hyperbolic metric

Suppose we defined the distance on \mathbb{C} as d(z,w)=|\frac{z-w}{1-\overline{w}z}|.

We claim that this is a metric on \mathbb{C}. \forall z,w,v\in \mathbb{C}:

(a) d(z,w)=0 if and only if z=w and d(z,w)> 0 otherwise.

(b) d(z,w)=d(w,z).

(c) d(z,w)\leq d(z,v)+d(v,w).

We call this metric the Pseudo hyperbolic metric.

Hyperbolic metric:

\text{Hypdist}(z,w)=\tanh^{-1}(d(z,w))

Where d(z,w)=|\frac{z-w}{1-\overline{w}z}|

So we can restate the Schwarz-Pick's Lemma as:


d(f(z),f(w))\leq d(z,w)

And in hyperbolic metric, it becomes:


\text{Hypdist}(f(z),f(w))\leq \text{Hypdist}(z,w)

Suppose the equality holds for Schwarz-Pick's Lemma, then |g(z)|=\tau z where |\tau|=1.

Computation ignored here.

Then f is a Möbius map that is automorphism of the unit disk.

Existence of harmonic conjugate

Suppose f=u+iv is holomorphic on a domain U\subset \mathbb{C}. Then u=\text{Re}(f) is harmonic on U. That is \Delta u=\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2}+\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2}=0.

Theorem 7.18

Let u be a real harmonic function on a convex domain G\subset \mathbb{C}. Then there exists g\in O(G) such that \text{Re}(g)=u. Moreover, g is unique up to an additive imaginary constant.

Proof:

Existence next time.

Uniqueness:

Suppose g,h\in O(G) s.t. \text{Re}(g)=\text{Re}(h)=u.

\text{Re}g=u=\text{Re}h on G.

If we can show that (g-h)'=0 on G, then we win.

Let g=u+iv, h=u+iw.

By the Cauchy-Riemann equations,


\begin{aligned}
\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(g-h)&=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}i(v-w)\\
&=i\left(\frac{\partial u}{\partial y}-\frac{\partial u}{\partial y}\right)\\
&=0
\end{aligned}

Suppose G=\mathbb{C}\setminus\{0\}, then u=\ln|z|=\frac{1}{2}\ln(x^2+y^2), which is harmonic.

Continue next time.
