Complex analysis is the study of functions of a complex variable, and especially of those functions which are differentiable. Initially, complex analysis is concerned with generalizing the basic notions of calculus, such as limits, differentiation and integration, to complex valued functions defined on an open subset in the complex plane. Many of the first results proved in complex analysis are simple extensions of familiar facts from calculus. However, a function which is differentiable at each point of an open subset in the complex plane has many additional special properties that go far beyond merely being differentiable. If D is an open subset of the complex plane C, if ƒ:D C is a function, we say that ƒ is differentiable at the point z in D if the limit
exists. If the limit exists then the value of the limit defines the derivative ƒ(z) at...
